I invented a working time machine
Unfortunately someone has stolen it, and escaped to the future to cover up the theft. So when you hear of someone inventing a time machine sometime in the distant days to come, just remember that was all me.

1. then make another one
and create a big slab of cement, maybe 10' x 10' x 10' so when the thief will appear he'll be trapped in a concrete tomb

4. damn, for a guy who invented a time machine, you sure got some
shitty time-management skills

blow off the first few months of the new semester, build another time machine, permanently entomb the time machine thief, then go back in time and start your next semester on time.

that is, if you still ~want~ to go to college, which Biff proved is entirely irrelevent when you have a time machine.

14. Shit time-management was the whole point of inventing it
I mean, I don't want to cure my habitual lateness by leaving five minutes earlier--that's kind of the long way around.

5. Phurphoo, -My boss invented one of those ages ago.
Oh sure, you can't travel into the past or the future with it. But with one flick of the Enter key on that overpriced "Light Bright" he calls a computer he can guarantee me an afternoon that's fucking eternal.
