Sometimes I’m the funniest person I know. While IMing a friend about the Time Traveler Convention, the following transpired:
me: wish i would have thought of that
friend: A note: Time travel is a hard problem, and it may not be invented until long after MIT has faded into oblivion. Thus, we ask that you include the latitude/longitude information when you publicize the convention
me: yeah. that and you only need one convention are pretty funny.
friend: and this one: I'm from the future, and I'd like to attend! We're not sure how you're emailing us from the future, but we'd love to have you!
me: LOL
me: you'd travel to the past and go to a library and send email. duh.
me: but you would be surprised to see all the homeless using the terminals to view porn. and even more surprised at how savvy they are at getting around the mandatory filtering.
I actually cracked myself up with the mental picture of that which looks something like this (yes, all time travelers look like Zaphod and all bums look at nipplegate pictures):
