  • Vogons eat Scintillating Jeweled Scuttling Crabs, which they import from Vogsphere. They write the third worst poetry in the universe. Vogons are said to be the worst shots in the galaxy. It is said that they best way to get a drink out of one is to stick your finger up its throat. They sometimes feed criminals to the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal.
  • Far back in prehistory, when the first primeval Vogons crawled out of the sea, the forces of evolution were so disgusted with them that they never allowed them to evolve again. Through sheer obstinacy, though, the Vogons survived (partly by adapting a misplaced, badly malformed, and dyspeptic liver into a brain). They then emigrated en masse to the Brantisvogon star cluster, where they formed most of the Galactic bureaucracy, most notably in the Vogon Constructor Fleets (which, despite their name, patrol the galaxy demolishing planets).
