Sick Video I Want to See

You know how there's a quiet fan film genre that takes popular songs and video clips and puts them together into a wide array of music videos?

Picture it.

Clips from every show featuring a faster-than-light or would-be faster-than-light vehicle. Specifically, clips of the vehicle accellerating, then blowing up, disintegrating, or otherwise suffering the gravest of perils or failures.

The song? "I fought the law, and the law won."


This Lunatic idea has been brought to us by the bumper sticker on the Lunatic's door, which reads: 186,000 miles/second. It's not just a good idea, it's the law.

Well, if the person one killed was *not* in fact your grandparent, then my original theory is kept intact - you failed to actually kill your biological ancestor.

Branching timelines is an entirely separate viewpoint, and also involves no paradox. In that new universe which one would have created, one would never be born, but since you yourself came from a *different* future universe, you still failed to kill of the ancestor in *that* universe - you have now killed someone entirely unconnected to you.

I was not arguing that it is strictly impossible to kill "your grandparent", just using that as an description of my theory of the impossibility of creating paradox.
