A fantastic definiton...
I read this passage recently and I found it perfect, not by an elaborate description, but by the simplicity of the most perfectly wierd situation describable!
"It's the wild color scheme that freaks me," said Zaphod whose love affair with this ship had lasted almost three minutes into the flight. "Every time you try to operate one of these wierd black controls that are labeled in black on a black background, a little black light lights up black to let you know you've done it. What is this? Some kind of galatic hyperhearse?"
