This would only work if you replaced the you that existed 10 seconds ago instead of there being two of you. I tend to think it would work like this.Originally Posted by jenandherlaptop
A. You see what appears to be yourself appearing from nowhere, say hello then walk off.
B. You enter your time machine.
C. You emerge ten seconds ago, see yourself, say hello, and walk off.
No loop, just a series of events that happen out of universal time (but in order in your own personal timeline).

This is the comparable with a thread asking "How do you think Santa flys around the world so quickly?" and everyone giving science answers.
Yo
It's a bit of fun.
Do it or don't. I've got places to be.
I know, but I wanted to do my "calling everything shite" bit at least once today.
Yo
Aye, I get like that.
Do it or don't. I've got places to be.
Imagine slagging people off for posing nonsensical questions.
Just imagine.

Pure not worse than just about any other thread in the "Spirituality / Philosophy" sub-thread.
You know, like, the ones about God and that?

Well the point's already been made and they're still discussing it.
I'm sure everyone concerned has taken the points on board.
Do it or don't. I've got places to be.
Remember, you observing yourself getting into the time machine are a product of that activity and you are still moving through time. You might be in the same physical location, but you cannot see "you" appearing ten seconds ago because you've moved forward in time.
So you don't get two or more of you appearing other than in that ten second window, and you don't get an endless loop.

Oh my god! I can't believe what a drama everyone else is making! This is the worst thing EVER!!!

There are now 3 different types of fun to be had in this thread.
Do it or don't. I've got places to be.
Thread's gone mental.
Smash and redefine
So what is it?
The interval between birth and death is fractal. Any given moment is infinitely deep and rich, and therefore one lifetime is quite enough for me.
The fact that its always been a shite joke is an integral part of the joke...
