Freezing time.

Yeah, but freezing time (even with the exception of himself) would mean that he would freeze EVERYTHING outside himself ... including the much needed oxygen molecules needed to sustain all carbon-based life forms ... and he would soon die ... dipshit ... just sayin' :/

Oh :/ ... In that case, I retract all previous statements ... dipshit infinity + 1 ...

Freezing everything but yourself would probably cause you to age anyway, so you'd probably die before you're supposed to.

[Krythor]

Why do you have to spoil Jixby's dreams by using LOGIC? If you hadn't interfered this thread could have had a million zany ideas about the freezing of time by now

If I could stick time in a bottle...

Actually, you'd probably not even be able to move if everything but you was frozen in time. Time would probably be necessary to move the air's molecules around, as you push through them with your body.

THAT MEANS THAT NOT ONLY WAS "CLOCKSTOPPERS" A COMPLETE FLOP AS A MOVIE, BUT COMPLETELY IMPOSSIBLE AND UNTRUE :D

[kellychaos]

Yeah, but according to Julian Barbour in his book The End of Time, time does not really exist anyway. That sort of makes this whole thread mute. :/

[Captain Robo]

YOU MEAN, "MOOT"

[sadie]

it's not like the thread's making any noise or anything.

[kellychaos]

Well, excuuuuuuuuuuuuuse ME ... I'm allowed a typo every once in a while ... lord knows their flying all over this joint anyway.

[sadie]

they're.

[kellychaos]

Stepped on my peepee. :/

[Matt Harty]

pee pee.

[Esuohlim]

THIS THREAD SUCKS NOW.

[Jixby Phillips]

Haven't you gaybos seen the sitcom "Out of this World"?

[Esuohlim]

You mean the one with the alien chick that stops time?

[whoreable]

Duh the one where her dad talks to her through a bowling trophy or something

[Captain Robo]

I saw a twilight zone where Henry Fonda stopped time with a pocketwatch and then the pocketwatch broke and time was frozen forever.

It was sad.

[kellychaos]

K, disregarding all the logistical AND logical problems inherent in stopping time, what, aside from sleeping, what else would be the advantage of this time altered state?

[FS]

Jixby knows all the things I've forgotten, and more.

walk right into banks and walk out with lotsa cash, place an anvil over the president's head, piss on Martha Stwewert, etc...

[GADZOOKS]

It would be too cold to freeze time 8-)

You are so counter-culture it makes me wet.

You'd enough time to be completely lazy. But you'd still want to conserve your time, as you still age even though everybody else isn't. If you spent so much time frozen, it would look like you had that aging disease.

Also it would be super easy to pull pranks.

You could study for tests DURRING your test.

You could use it to "disapear" in front of people, perhaps as a part of a magic act or to make people think they are insane, causing them to kill themselves with unnessessary medication (this is what happened to the neighbor on Bewitched )

The only time it wouldn't really work well is if you wanted to get somewhere fast, because you'd have to drive for it to not be a pain in the ass. If the other cars aren't moving then neither are you.
