Title: Abso1ute p0wer
Post by: tp4tissue on Wed, 02 August 2023, 21:19:31

Rewatched the Simon Pegg comedy, absolutely anything, where he gets god lvl powers, and everything goes wrong.

Makes you wonder,  Is it actually possible to have powers such as that and make decisions/wishes which close all the loopholes for things to go wrong?

You cannot prevent wrongs. Wrongs exist only in the past.

So pre-observation, theoretically nothing has ever gone wrong?
