So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish

...so said the dolphins when they departed Planet Earth just before it is demolished to make way for a hyperspace bypass. After they have made a copy of Earth, and all its contents, somewhere else. Ctrl-X then Ctrl-V.

Dolphins are supposed to be clever, yes? Cleverer than us? It sure seems like it in this case. They clearly discovered Qwerty keyboards, interstellar travel and clipboards. And how to perform and monetise acrobatics to an adoring public. P. T. Barnum, eat your heart out.

Your local chippie run out of fish? A dolphin eats around 30 pounds of fish a day and there are some one million dolphins in the world, so blame them. If they can't get enough from our over-fished seas, they will shoot over to the chippie and grab all the cod and chips. In Earth's new home we should ban dolphins, methinks.

Obviously "So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish" is also a Brexit meme. Enough.
