This seems very familiar.. Isn't there a plotline in The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy about someone travelling around apologising to the entire universe in alphabetical order, using a time machine iirc?

Edit: Hah, my bad, I thought Bowerick was a HN user Google set me straight!

Good one!

That would be Wowbagger the Infinitely Prolonged, and his mission was to insult the entire universe, in alphabetical order.

I think you're referring to Bowerick Wowbagger the Infinitely Prolonged -- an immortal who went about insulting every living being in the universe in alphabetical order :)
