"Mostly Harmless" was the description of the Earth in the Guide. Well, one of them in the "trilogy" anyway.

You're welcome!
And dammit, I would have gotten that one if I had logged on a few hours earlier.

That's what I get for not being a loyal fan of h2g2. Now I pay.

It was actually the final revised entry, which went live just after the Earth was demolished.
(Before that, it read, "Harmless.")

Though at some point in the twisting timeline of the story the original Ford Prefect submission (the long one) was reinstated.
Edited for poor word choice.
My turn...

Alas, no. (Your parenthetical search is on the right track, though.)

Kind of cheating because I just stole the doscientos one and cut it down, but whatever.
Probably too easy, anyway, but it's early and I'm lazy.

Likely to be just as easy, but I felt it kind of went hand in hand with the other.

Dollar Bill & The Inkpoints.
I don't REALLY think its that... I just thought it'd be funny if ya thought about it.

That would be funny but no. I just quickly blotted out the Nirvana part (didn't want to leave some sort of red herring). I should've just cropped it instead. Oh well.
Here's another one as well.
