Time Travel - it all makes sense now...

It turns out that there's a scientific and logical explanation for why people (mostly men) spend so much time in the pub and only get home in the early hours of the morning. The reason for this odd behavior is based on Einstein's famous Theory of Relativity.

It works like this: it is a well known fact that the more you drink, the faster time goes and thus the faster you move. After about 10 beers (or 5 double brandies, etc), you're moving at close to the speed of light, and this is where Einstein enters the picture. According to his Relativity Theory, anybody moving at, or close to the speed of light, undergoes Time Dilation, i.e. time for you in the pub passes slower than for an observer outside the pub.

Complicated calculations have shown that the pub becomes a type of time machine: - for every half-hour spent inside the pub, the equivalent of two hours pass outside the pub. A typical situation is: "OK fellas, it's 8 o’clock; I'm going to surprise the family and get home early!!" However, the moment this person steps outside the pub, the time travel effect is negated by negative radiation from the environment, and he then thinks: "What??!!?? - why is it so quiet?? Bo11ocks!!! It's half past one!! WHAT HAPPENED???!!??" and the answer, of course, is Time Dilation!!

I've tried to explain this to outside observers, but so far nobody (except fellow time travellers) has been able or willing to understand the sound scientific basis of this phenomenon.

Please share this with all your known fellow time travellers - maybe we can prove this theory by sheer, overwhelming force of numbers.
