Don't you wish you could go back, with all the knowledge you have now?

dreamingahead: YAYZ
dreamingahead: iron&wine in one hour :D
Homunculu5: boo on you
dreamingahead: *grins* I am sooo excited
dreamingahead: & I am SO finished with my stupid paper
Homunculu5: You AIM me later and tell me the concert sucked. It's already happened here in the future.
dreamingahead: hahaha
dreamingahead: it couldn't possibly
dreamingahead: the last time I saw him I was practically hyperventillating
Homunculu5: You'd think so, but there were destructo-bots.
Homunculu5: They rip the roof off the venue and kill Sam
dreamingahead: oh noez!
Homunculu5: Yep.
Homunculu5: But they won't be invented for another twenty minutes
Homunculu5: Then they go rogue and kill their creator
Homunculu5: And then they take offense to Iron & Wine's simple vocal styles and soft, country-like accompaniment
dreamingahead: well, that's upsetting
Homunculu5: It will be more upsetting for you if you go. Why don't you stay home?
dreamingahead: haha
dreamingahead: noooo
Homunculu5: Well, don't say I didn't warn you
Homunculu5: (although I already know you will)
dreamingahead: haha
Homunculu5: See, what we have here is temporal determinism.
Homunculu5: I'm not influencing your choice in any way, but I already know the outcome of events.
Homunculu5: I knew that, even if I warned you not to go to the concert, you'd still go, because I am in the future and know what has occurred.
Homunculu5: This is why people who say that if God knows what we are going to do then we have no free will make no sense.
dreamingahead: haha
dreamingahead: you are an enormous nerd
