The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy/Awesome
- Marvin kills a tank bare-handed. By exploiting its stupidity. And then just sighs, "What a depressingly stupid machine" before slouching off.
- Zaphod is put in the room where he will be killed by psychological overwhelmingness by being shown his significance in comparison to the entire rest of everything in the universe... and lives. Albeit, because he's actually in an alternate dimension where he is the most important thing in the universe.
