So You Created a Wormhole

4 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
Welcome, intrepid temporal explorers, to the world's first and only field manual/survival guide to time travel!DON'T LEAVE THIS TIME PERIOD WITHOUT IT! Humans from H. G. Wells to Albert Einstein to Bill & Ted have been fascinated by time travel-some say drawn to it like moths to a flame. But in order to travel safely and effectively, newbie travelers need to know the dos and don'ts. Think of this handy little book as the only thing standing between you and an unimaginably horrible death-or being trapped forever in another time or alternate reality. You get: Essential time travel knowledge: Choosing the right time machine, from DeLoreans to hot tubs to phone booths-and beyond What to say-and what NOT to say-to your doppelganger Understanding black holes and Stephen Hawking's term "spaghettification" (no, it's not a method of food preperation; yes, it is a horrifically painful way to meet your end) The connection between Einstein's General Theory of Relativity, traversing wormholes and the 88 mph speed requirement The possible consequences of creating a time paradox-including, but not limited to, the implosion of the universe Survival tips for nearly any sticky time travel situation: How to befriend a dinosaur and subsequently fight other dinosaurs with that dinosaur Instructions to build your very own Rube Goldberg Time Machine Crusading-for fun and profit Tips on battling cowboys, pirates, ninjas, samurai, Nazis, Vikings, robots and space marines How to operate a microwave oven Enjoying the servitude of robots and tips for living underground when they inevitably rise up against us

Man, I am RUTHLESS this year. This is the fourth book I‘ve DNF‘d!

I‘ve had this book on my goodreads #tbr since March 2013 (it was the oldest one) and figured I might as well pick it up. Weeeell this style of humour and I don‘t get along apparently. Oddly enough I think I‘d enjoy the book more if the authors took the premise more seriously.

Also discovered this printing error.

I used yesterday‘s #riotgrams #freebie to simply not post at all. Today I have a photo of the ever-evolving #tbr shelf beside my bed. Tagged book is first up because it‘s from the library.

@EmilyChristine thanks for the postcard!! I chuckled at the comic. Only two days ago, I learned a good definition of wormhole (something I'd heard of but didn't understand until very recently)--then your comic came! Perfect timing.

EmilyChristine You‘re welcome! 😁 6y
