No Tea (noun)The absence of tea, universally referred to as "No Tea," is a situation so dire that it has caused widespread panic, existential dread, and more than one interstellar conflict.

He has a remarkable knack for surviving improbable situations, a profound disdain for Vogon poetry, and an almost obsessive relationship with his towel.

Marvin (proper noun) Also known as Marvin the Paranoid Android, Marvin is a highly intelligent, exceedingly depressed, and chronically underappreciated robot designed by the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation.
