Weirded out to say the least..

So i'm walking home from the corner shop where i got some cigs, dark bit of my road and this fella in a windbreaker/hood thing walks across from the other side of the street and says to me - "you are to die on the 23rd April 2004, i will go back and make this work" .
Obvious nutter, but i felt really threatened and unnerved, as i didn't see his face etc.. and he shuffled off while i was in shock.. didn't smell of alcohol or anything, probably just mental.. but still ..haha. Just thought i'd run to the internets with this randomness

Maybe, you already are dead?!? :eek:

Dickyb0b · 19 Dec 2011 at 01:46

didnt he mean , you should have died then?

Daze · 19 Dec 2011 at 01:48

Invisible agents, time travel etc are things I do believe in. R.I.P parallel universe OP!

Stupid nutter didn't realise that by going back to wipe you out he changes the present, how can he meet you in 2011 if he goes back into 2004 to kill you, because if he does go back and kill you he can't meet up with you in 2011, thus the action is self-negating.... etc etc ad infinitum ad nauseam

Or maybe he wants your clothes, boots and motorcycle.

Yea that confused me a little. He was from London though, going by the accent.

YEEEEAAAAHHHH!!!

AberystwythLAD · 19 Dec 2011 at 01:56

he said you're gonna die on a date thats already passed?

Sounds like he is going to time travel like in Misfits to change it which will shape a new path for the future. I knew this day would come and I knew Misfits was real. I wonder what power i will get.

BloodyL · 19 Dec 2011 at 01:59

The power to say the most retarded things?

Oh.. wait...

awww damn, soon as I finished reading OP I had that reply on the tip of my tongue.

OP you died in 2004 and are now living in a parallel universe.

agnes · 19 Dec 2011 at 08:24

Think of it this way, you have been given all these years since 2004 as a gift

Vonhelmet · 19 Dec 2011 at 08:25

He sees dead people.

"I went back on april 24th 2004 to april 24th 1974 and shagged your mother you ARE MY SON "

" I died over 500 years ago, I am cursed to be undead for all of eternity, cursed to feed on the living...."

" on the 24th April 2004 I was key player in the negotations that stopped IRAN starting WW3"

" I have sent payment back in time to a hit man who will kill you the moment he sees you on april 23rd"

" if you travel back in time you will only end up in a parallel universe, kill me all you want there but I will always be alive here"

"thats odd because you should have died on april 22nd 2004, I am to go back and make it happen"

" you cannot kill me I AM THE ONE"

"People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly...timey-wimey...stuff."

Isn't that a quote from Doctor Who? Don't know how sad that is that I know that!

Whatever it's a quote from it rings a few bells.

Anyway as someone else has already pointed out, aside from the nutter part, if he really did meet you in the present, tell you he was killing you in the past and then somehow did it, he wouldn't meet you, therefore wouldn't think to kill you and you'd be posting in a forum wondering what the hell that nutter was saying...

You're safe!

Edit: Yay my 5,000th post!
