The 'what' is one of the most puzzling and ubiquitous entities in the known universe. It has consistently baffled philosophers, scientists, and the occasional intergalactic wanderer. 'What' is often the first word in a series of increasingly despairing words, such as 'where,' 'why,' and the lesser-known 'whither' which is only used by those who have read too much fancy literature or own a time machine. Not to be confused with 'watt,' the unit of power, 'what' can diminish the power of any conversation by requiring the questioner to repeat themselves.
When traveling the cosmos, carry a pocket universal translator. It can turn your 'whats' into 'oh, I sees' in over fifty million languages.
The 'what' can be stumbled upon in cosmic conversations, at the crossroads of confusion and mystification, or during any exchange with a Vogon (who are not only terrible poets but also notoriously hard to understand).
Avoid using 'what' in the presence of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal, as it might mistake it for an invitation for hors d'oeuvres (you being the hors d'oeuvres). Also, refrain from uttering 'what' in the Great Library of Shhh, as it's likely to result in ejection into the nearest black hole.
The record for the most 'whats' in a single conversation is held by two Betelgeusian tourists who, upon arriving at Earth, were so bewildered by human customs that their dialogue consisted entirely of 'whats' for three consecutive hours.

Assets, in the universal sense, are quite unlike the traditional notion of wealth and more about collecting experiences—and occasionally, rare species of intergalactic flora, which may or may not be sentient. For example, owning a piece of real estate on Vogsphere is often seen as a remarkable asset, mostly because it serves as a conversation starter about one's survival instincts, or profound lack thereof.

A blog, an abbreviation of the antiquated term 'weblog,' is a sort of informational pamphlet no one asked for, existing in the digital ether. It typically consists of text, images, and sometimes those moving pictures with cats, chronicling anything from the mundane dietary habits of the author to the latest theories on why the universe probably doesn't exist. A blog is to journalism what a whoopee cushion is to interior design: it can be surprisingly loud and somewhat entertaining, but ultimately people question why it's there in the first place.
