Potholes, the universe's way of reminding you that no matter how advanced your civilization, the roads, like life, will have its ups and downs - mostly downs, in this particular case. These surprising dips in the asphalt fabric of society are where the optimism of road engineers go to die, alongside the unsuspecting suspensions of many a star-hopping vehicle. Often thought of as portals to other dimensions by the more imaginative and less informed hitchhikers, potholes are, in fact, merely portals to your local vehicle repair shop.
When hurtling through the cosmos at improbable speeds, one is advised to keep a keen lookout for these sneaky asphalt anomalies, lest your journey comes to a sudden and bumpy halt.
Potholes can be found ubiquitously distributed on roads throughout the universe, but for a premium collection, Earth's city of Rome is said to have a selection that rivals the holes in its historical tales.
Avoid the natural instinct to scream 'Oh no, not again!' as you descend into the abyss of a pothole. It does nothing to alleviate the situation and is terribly disheartening for petunias that may be growing nearby.
In a parallel universe, potholes are worshipped as minor deities, responsible for teaching humility and the importance of suspension maintenance to sentient vehicles.

Superheroes, the universe's answer to the ever-present question, 'Who will save us now?' often dressed in spandex, which is a textile with the uncanny ability to simultaneously shrink-wrap one's dignity along with their body. These beings of immense power, questionable fashion choices, and often-complicated backstories, grace various galaxies with their antics of morality and muscle. They are known for their unique abilities, such as flying without the benefit of an Electronic Thumb, seeing through solid objects with less radiation than a microwave burrito, and lifting objects that would make a Vogon Constructor Fleet feel a bit inadequate.

Time travel, the cherished dream of every historian with a deadline or a partygoer who just remembered they left the oven on a week last Tuesday. It's the simple act of hopping between different points in the fourth dimension as if it were as easy as changing lanes on the intergalactic superhighway (mind the potholes). To the layperson, time travel is about as comprehensible as a game of Brockian Ultra-Cricket - which is to say, not at all. But fear not, your trusty Guide is here to untangle the temporal spaghetti that is time travel. Theoretically, all you need is a robust understanding of quantum mechanics, a dash of general relativity, a ship that goes faster than light (don't ask about the speed limit), and a reservation at Milliways, the Restaurant at the End of the Universe, for that full, time-travel dining experience.
