how stupid ?
ok ill try keep this short.
made a call today to a person who comes on here and who is in a clan here.
i will not say his name as you will realise soon why .
so hes at home , watching the world cup game mexico, france.
and i am hey dont do that, i can call my brother in england, there 6 hours ahead and hes already seen the game and knows the score.
5 minutes later, hey its mexico to win 2-0
by this time the games 15 minutes in to play .
now hes like, hmmm , but its live, how can you do that ?
well its like this, its live, but as hes in the uk, england, there 6 hours ahead on time, and so with that the games already over and the scores in already.
so if i make the call , and ask, he tells me.
time passes, and game ends mexico win , 2-0 .
i call him back , trying not to laugh my ass off down the phone.
see i told you the score but you didnt belive me.
now hes on the phone, trying to explain and understand time zone variences, and so on .
i give the phone to the wife as he is still trying to understand, how you can watch a live match in the usa, at one time, yet in the uk, as they are 6 hours ahead the match is played over with and they are talking about the end result.
so my question is, how freaking hard can i laugh at this person who i will not name on here??

Re: how stupid ?
Wait... wait..... waiiiiitt.... a minute here.
Either I'm misunderstanding you, or you are under the belief that England is literally living In the future! And therefore will know about things that happened before we do in America? I sincerely hope that's not what you're saying. Either the game would be live in both America and England, in which case people in both countries would see it happening real time at the same time. Or they record it and play it back later in other countries in which case you would see it later.
Bottom line, we're all living at the same point in time together, we just call it by different names in different locations in order to confuse the fuck out of everyone or something...
