Slippers

Saturday, June 14

- Friviously wasting time. But time isn't really real. An old friend of mine came up with an explanation as to why time travel isn't going to ever work. Time is, like slippers, a man made (or man assumed) continuality. It can't be mixed up.

I disagree. Lots of things are assumed by humans, and only a few of them can't be mixed up. Consider time as being the fourth dimension, something that science boffs will go apeshit about. Now, we've managed to find ways of moving in the first three, otherwise we would be unable to walk, talk, or buy slippers. It's only a matter of time (excuse the pun) before something sorts itself out for messing about with the next one.

So what will happen when we do? Will you be able to kill your own grandmother. In my view there are three possibilities as to why we haven't yet heared from people in the future about how great it is and how much fun they're having.

1: There are alternative realities. Parallel universes. Every single decision you make leads you into a different place, where presumably, there is a chance of everyone elses decesions reflecting, affecting and causing things to happen in you're own self appointed bubble of shame. This theory has had a lot of time and money wasted upon it. It isn't the answer, simply because it would be the stupidest thing ever.

2: Upon making timetravel, the guy who patents it does two things. Firstly he goes forwards to the end of time and patents it until he's got exclusive right to it for the rest of human living (is that even possible? it would be rather neat) then he would lay down a law stating that no one is allowed to go back in time before, because by doing so, the entire science of it would vanish due to quantum principles.

3: Something else, much more exciting and much more interesting will happen. This is the best of the three, because if truth be told, we don't have a clue what is going to take place when the light barrier and thus the time barrier is broken.

Whatever, slippers will be needed until the end.
