That is not unlike the pencil one.

Except, just as there is a Planck length of space, there is one for time. Like a frame.

Space and time have discreet chunks. Weird, huh? Kind of what you would expect if you were in a computer...

you know. the pinnochio one isnt a paradox.

if he says "my nose will grow"

hes talking future tense, so...
it means his nose WILL grow.
not nessecarily as soon as he says that sentence.

But wouldn't saying "My nose is growing" repeatedly achieve the same effect?

On the topic of time travel, how can there be a future if we're currently in the present and the future hasn't happened yet?  Unless this is the past, which it isn't. >.>


Or is it?

Do you really want to know how to time travel into the future?

Wat no.  Is that sarcasm?

No.

The idea is that time stretches infinitely in both directions. The "Present" is the moment at which you departed in your time machine or the moment you think about when the present is. The future is anywhere after that, the past is anywhere before that. So the future exists, we just haven't reached it yet.

4 People in cars arive at a 4 way intersection at the same time

Normal driving rules state the person to your right has the "Right of way" and can turn first.

The person to the right of another car has the right of way. In short, all cars have the right of way, but can not go untill the person to their right does.

A man was trying to sell a spear and a shield. When asked how good his spear was, he said that his spear could pierce any shield. Then, when asked how good his shield was, he said that it could defend from all spear attacks. Then one person asked him what would happen if he were to take his spear to strike his shield; the seller could not answer.

If it happened, both tools would have a neutral effect. It was as if nothing happened between the tools.

Or the man would admit he was lying, because he has a family to feed and no one will by his wears.

If you drop a pencil, it needs to get halfway to the ground before reaching the ground, right? Well after that, it needs to get halfway again. And again. And again. And again. If there are infinite half-ways to the floor, it should never reach it. Yet it does.

keep in mind that you're cutting the timescale in half when you do that.

[Butler]

Ponder this one you guise.
There is no "Present" for we are constantly moving away from the Past and into the Future.
