You can't shun underage drinkers, Joe!
Don't you remember the joys of getting drunk off one barcardi breezer, or sneaking drinks of absinthe from older siblings drink stashes?
You know...now I think about it, there could be a reason I'm resitting a year!

It wasn't actually my choice to give her some. She put on a pleading voice and dad said okay but just a wee bit. Which is what I did. Both of us then made no sense with what we were saying, more noticeable with her than me.
Stewart sounded a lot like her in that last post, only more long-winded.
On the subject of writing about time travel, it doesn't matter if it doesn't scientifically make sense, it just happened, alright? You could even say it happened due to magic. (And this is coming from a trainee scientist.)

Bah! She is surely a rank amateur compared to the Baron of Bullshit!

But what if I am destined to travel back in time and then take on multiple identities over the ages to write every piece of fiction and scientific theory about or even vaguely concerned with time travel that was ever made, thus making the technilogical developements that allowed me to go back in time possible? ? It just wouldn't make sense!!!

Dammit Tom! That would eventually make you God! And winner of the thread! DAMN YOU!

That would be called pre-destiny.
Which is what happens when, in Futurama, they go back in time and do the whole spaceship landing in Area 51 thing. Then Fry becomes his own grandfather. Which is probably why he's not very clever and his family's a bit wacky.
You know what, though: I think we should just drop the subject. There's probably scientists and/or philosophers debating this very point right now. (Well maybe not in this part of the world; they'll be home watching TV or something. Unless they take their work home with them...)

We'll never drop it. Now, who would win in a fight; Mother Nature or Father Time?

Mother Nature.
Father Time will think he has won, probably through some incredibly scathing remark about the sagging effects he'll have on Mother Earth's breasts and so on. But he'll lose in the long run. She'll be simply insufferable until he gets bored and gives in.

But couldn't Father Time just speed things up until Mother Nature is destroyed by all our lovely pollution?
Or global warming?
Or nukes?
Or cheese?

Father Time and Mother Nature would never fight, they work together to ensure that they'll both outlive us in some way or another.
Yes, we may do damage to Mother Nature with our pollution, global warming, nukes and cheese, but eventually we'll become extinct at some point down the line and Mother Nature will reclaim the world with the help of Father Time.
So if you think about it, we're the real losers. In more ways than one.

Actually I think Chuck Norris would win.

That depends. Who's his intrepid sidekick for this encounter?

I'm gonna go with SuperTed. Usually SuperTed gets the A spot, but all heroes, super or not, and even Gods, have to step down to sidekick level if they get to go with Chuck

I think the combination of Chuck Norris and SuperTed would simply rip a hole in reality. I doubt anything could handle that level of awesomeness!
And while on the subject of who would beat who in a fight, The Wombles or The Clangers: who would win?
