Armored Cavalry I am Chickenman Armored Cavalry I am Chickenman Ice phantom gen We will never achieve the ability to travel through time i know because no one has shown up yet through history saying "I am from the ~FUTURE!~" thus there is no period where we achieve that ability.
Another theory goes that for every possibility, a separate parallel universe is created where events branch off, resulting in infinite embodiments of possibility.
We're in the one that branched off when the time-travellers decided NOT to go this far back, or decided NOT to make themselves known to us.
Lack of observable evidence is not proof of impossibility. Let's keep it in our known universe, please. Even under these circumstances, as far as we're concerned, it's not possible.
No, under these circumstances, as far as we're concerned, we don't know what's possible. We have unprovable postulations both for and against it. ... If we're on that branch of the multiverse that completely eliminates the existence of something (as you suggested), I believe it's safe to say that it just isn't possible in our universe.
It doesn't completely eliminate it. It merely completely eliminates the branch of possibility wherein time-travellers arrived in the past previous to our present, and made themselves known using irrefutable proof.

Seraphor I am Chickenman Armored Cavalry Ice phantom gen Seraphor Science doesn't explain time at all.
People try to use science to explain it, but no one has it figured out yet.
All we know is that it exists, how it effects us and that it can be manipulated. We don't know why and we don't know it's limits.
Theory of relativity. The theory of relativity pretty much only sums into three words what Seraphor said in his second-to-last sentence.

I don't think you have any idea what's being said.
Ice Phantom is saying that the Theory of Relativity proves that 'time' is a 'circle'.
OH.
No, that's bullshit.

Ice Phantom is saying that the Theory of Relativity shows us that we do know what's possible.
Except that we don't.

Armored Cavalry Ice phantom gen Seraphor Ice phantom gen Could that be possible? I mean, science explains as a circle. There is no branches. doesn't explain time at all.

Well, this is the big part:
11. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with
God, as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us
and the power to carry that out.
No one in AA is required to share their religious affiliations or lack thereof. The emphasis on God is a metaphor for trusting in a power beyond ourselves -- be that God, community, family, or anything else that inspires and strengthens you.

Master SBK LetWhiteMakeRight14 I don't like fat women, and I don't like scrawny twig women either. My ideal woman is about my height and in very good physical condition. I actually prefer if a girl is slightly numerically heavy owing to dense bones and muscle mass.
Here's a perfect example of what I'm into:
http://www.popcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/amytaylor.jpg
There are many reasons for this, but for this conversation the only important one is that your body tells me who you are and what you are about. If you are fat, it tells me that you have no willpower. If you are fat due to no fault of your own (ex: thyroid problem), it tells me that you have sub-standard genes and I'm still not going to be attracted to you. If you are overly skinny, it tells me that you are either scrawny due to poor genetics, not physically active enough, or that you are neurotic and have no self esteem to the point that you starve yourself to look like what the media tells you that you should look like. Being in good shape is non-negotiable to me, and fat women, do not think you can rationalize your way out of it. There is nothing you can possibly tell most guys to try to convince them that they should actually like a different body type than they do. You may as well go try to convert gay men.
TL;DR: I like buff girls, nobody likes a fatty. Deal with it.
wrong. A lot of men like big girls, especially ones with a big a** and maybe breasts. Hell, go back a couple centuries, and women with wide hips were preferred for marriage since it was seen that they would survive childbirth better.
But I have yet to find anybody who likes morbidly obese people, guy or girl.
Ohhhh, I have. Trust me, they are out there.

Moonchild Hachi Okay, so i noticed this happening a lot.
Chunkier girls are of often rejected or even looked down upon for the simple fact that they arent skinny. Even the same guys who say that they dont care for looks do the same thing.
I myself and a pretty round girl, i have been through situations when i have been rejected because of my size, i've been through so many times it no longer affects me in any way, but i do see it happening to other girls. and it angers me, because people are so shallow these days.
So guys give you're opinion on it, girls too.
Men are actually very simple creatures, in general.
Most men who reject heavier females who are not overtly obese -- and by that I mean Jerry Springer-esque, not merely "meatier than Amy Winehouse" or even "Roseanne" -- do so because they are gettin' some elsewhere and can afford to be picky. But even THEN, a lot of men can have their tastes swayed by having other needs fulfilled. You know what men mostly really like and want? Food, drink, whatever category of shiny objects holds their particular fascination (cars, tools, techno s**t, comic books, video games, golf clubs, whatever), validation, and physical pleasure.
Men, for the most part, like to feel good, and to feel... for lack of a better word, "macho." If you find a man you want and he likes to chase after the anorexia wing of the local mental hospital but you look like Queen Latifah... feed him, stroke his ego, pretend to be interested in his shiny s**t, and make it clear that you are willing to be a cheerful participant in Shenanigans... and more than likely, he'll come around sooner or later. Most men are really very easy in the end.
