Forget about all the science and paradox and the religion and anything else that screws up your ability to enjoy this. Just read it.

Why do people always ‘show up’ from the future? Whenever you hear about time travellers, they are always coming from the future to someone else’s present.

I lost sleep over this last night / this morning. But I figured it out. Pay attention here because the opportunity to have some serious fun with someone is HUGE.

It would simply be stupid to walk up to someone and tell them, “Hey, I got to tell you something important. I am a time traveller. I came from the past to be here, in your present.” Now comes the tricky part. When your properly inquisitive and suspect victim of such revelation asks you, ‘Prove it”, you are on the spot and how you play this moment will make or break it!

“Well, that’s easy. I can tell you what happened yesterday!” (magician like hand flurry and sound bite Ta-Dah would be handy here) Not just that but, the day before! Last week, m0nth year etc etc etc. Just go on an tell them all the things you know have happened, because you are from the past!

In order for this to really work, you must sell it! You must believe you were in fact there, in the past! Part of the time the led up to the time you are in now with the person you are sharing this most incredible revelation too! Damn it – BE THE PAST!

No matter how fun this little exercise is, it leads you nowhere. Simply a bit of fun and a fine time explaining why, as a dramatic device, time travel only occurs in one direction.

    What an interesting idea. Of course, it wouldn’t work if your target was sober, but after a couple of stouts, why, it would be quite entertaining!
