i don't use reddit, so when i found
this thread, i just had to come up with a few of my own:
if you watch battlestar galactic backwards, its about a hyper-advanced civilization of people who leave their pre-verbal neighbors behind on earth as they fly away on spaceships that come from the sun. then start fighting with robots, the conflict becomes progressively more violent until finally they find the 12 planets where people are condensing out of clouds of gas and the robots go away. also, dr. baltar’s hallucinations become more frequent, his sanity starts to slip, and then he suddenly becomes sane.
if you watch the american revolution backwards, a bunch of guys in red coats come and take over the colonies before they repeal a bunch of taxes on sugar and stamps that people have slowly been getting less angry about.
if you watch your college years backwards, you spit liquid into cans, bottles, and plastic cups so that your damaged brain cells can repair themselves, then you lose 15 pounds.
if you watch a sunburn backwards, you rub your skin so that green aloe goo comes out and your skin gets redder and redder until finally you take off almost all your clothes and go sit outside so the sun can soak all the color from your skin.
