ICYMI: The title is a reference to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hitchhiker%27s_Guide_to_... ("time is an illusion, lunch time doubly so")

Also the opening paragraph, paraphrasing "In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move."

There are multiple HHGTTG references in it, as is the author's Twitter bio:

> Vell, I'm just zis guy, you know?

(A quotation from Gag Halfrunt, Zaphod Beeblebrox's "personal brain care specialist".)

≥ that represents a date around 292 billion years in the future, or roughly 22 times the estimated age of the universe, and thus officially Somebody Else's Problem.

And another... (Also, given Adams wrote a few Dr. Who episodes, one which turned into Life, the Universe and Everything, the "Time Lords" reference could be another.) The "Oh, and one more thing" is a slight misquote of, "And another thing."

As DNA is my favorite author bar none, I like this post a lot.
