Wow, you're a sceptical little bugger, RMT, aintcha? One of the kind of guys who's head is so far up their arse their face is being erroded by stomach acid.
Sonny boy, we have not even gotten to the truly fun and humorous part where I really put you to task. And even Darby is just toying with you like a kitten. You see my post count on this forum? You might do some research on those posts to see how many of them were dealing with kiddies like you. But I predict (without even claiming to be a time traveler) that you cannot be bothered to try to increase your probability of convincing anyone.
I didn't learn the language in my own time, I learnt it upon arrival.
Also, I'm not 'fabulously weathly', I didn't even buy the time machine myself.
And both of these answers explain exactly zero with respect to the point I was making about them. Nice dodges. To be honest, I don't really care if you answer them or your "excuses". But I have a feeling you do not even understand the purpose for me pointing them out, which is born out by...
(FYI, to me, my native language is indeed English, I consider this what you might call 'past-English') then why are you using that as a way of trying to show me up?
1) Your parenthetical remark here is in direct contradiction to something you posted earlier. And no, I am not going to do the heavy lifting for you to tell you what you wrote that it contradicts. But the more savvy people reading this thread already know and are laughing (at you, in case you didn't catch on).
2) The fact you think I am using language to try to "show you up" clearly exhibits you have ZERO clue as to what I am doing, and why I am doing it. Darby knows. And many other people who have watched us drill your type know. Let me give you a hint: The more you babble on, about ANYTHING, the more information you give us to falsify your claims, 10 ways from Sunday. But go ahead, keep babbling and giving us more rope to hang you with. It really is getting amusing now.
I did, you said 'assum' instead of 'assume'. Surely someone like you would have spotted such a basic mistake.
And you ASSUME it was a mistake, and not precisely planted with the HOPES you would point it out? Well done. You still don't get it, do you? At least we know people from the future are not very bright. But go on...
Clearly I know about it, how else would I be using it...?
OH! You DID catch on to that one! Gold star for that one!
That may be the case but could you, without using the internet tell me exactly how every function of one of your cars operate? How and why the lights turn on when a certain switch is flicked, the mechanism behind the speedometer, etc. And before you say "You know an awful lot about 21st century cars for someone from the future", I'll explain. I asked my friend here (born in 1980) for examples.
Yes, actually I can, and without using the internet. But I am afraid that I have one more advantage over you (besides a generally superior intellect that mostly comes from age): You see, I *AM* an engineer. Aerospace engineer to be exact. So I could not only explain all those details about how a car works, but an airplane as well. But yet again, you have completely ignored the reason I posted this...it was about you using your Intersystem to go back and FIND the info to tell us exactly how your widget works. But then you say...
Ok, well first of all, why do I need to bother? I know how to use it, I don't need to know how it works for that.
1) You said you would answer our questions.
2) It is obvious you wish to convince people you are a time traveler, and this question of exactly how it works would help do that.
Secondly, I didn't come here on some sort of mission to enlighten you all.
OH REALLY? So are you actually telling me that you did NOT write the following?
Tren said:
I don't think I was hallucinating. Yep. It actually was in your first post. So what am I to make of that? Contradicting yourself again?
It is possible. I mean, I'd have to write it all down because a copy and paste function doesn't exactly work between computers,
ROTFLMFAO! You come from several THOUSAND years in the future, and you are going to tell me that you cannot cut and paste to a digital storage device to bring with you? And before you say "not compatible", are you also going to tell me that you cannot PRINT OUT information in your oh-so-advanced time?
Think about it. It's a time machine. Due to that fact it's a time machine, it's already there when it's recieving itself, so it knows the co-ordinates (latitude and longitude) to bounce me and itself back to.
No, no, no! You are not even paying attention to yourself! The WORMHOLE is the "time machine". Your thingy is just the thingy that converts you into your stream of atoms and beams you TO the wormhole!! I cannot believe I am having to REMIND an alleged time traveler exactly what his (lame) story is!
Your self contradictions are possibly silly enough to win your way onto our "wall of shame" that is pinned to the top of this forum. You are already vying for looniest TT claimant, behind Chronohistorian.
But go ahead and answer Darby. He has made it even clearer than I did. Let me boil it down to your non-engineer, thick-as-a-rock mentality into this 3rd grade question:
If the machine that encoded you was part of the stream of atoms WHAT EXACTLY REASSEMBLED YOU? Because that stream of atoms cannot re-assemble itself into a machine...that is not how streams of atoms function! In fact, streams of atoms HAVE NO FUNCTION!
This is grand fun!
RMT
