Time Suspenders

Dollcee said, Dos, if you choose to exist in another time period of our history, when would you like it to be?

Dos slunk into a pose and his facial expression was one of vagueness. Eventually he began to answer Dollcee’s question, I do not wish to exist in another time period. I struggle to exist in this period and I cannot see how it would be different to any other period.

Dos took so long to answer Dollcee, she had moved on and had to think hard to determine what he was on about. Eventually, she caught on and said, I can understand that. Sometimes I want to whizz ahead in time to find out what is happening now. We are a result of our culture and own period in time. It would probably be very difficult to adjust quickly.

Cybo made a strange sound and then said, I wonder if you can separate culture and time?

Dos said, I believe that culture is bound by the time period it exists in. It would be an interesting line of inquiry to pursue on the line. I am sure there would be some interesting positions taken on that matter.

Cybo said, I wonder why there are not lots of words that specifically define periods of time, for example, the feeling of wasted time waiting for a bus, when you know you will never get that time back, gone forever.

Dollcee said, it is a pity you can’t get credit for lost time waiting for a bus and be able to draw on it at another time.

Dos said, I am sure there will be a professor at some obscure institution that is developing a resolution to the problem. Probably devising a wearable time suspender that stops biological aging while having to wait for something; therefore, extending your overall time of existence.

Dollcee said, I think we should set to work and develop the concept ourselves. Maybe we could call it, Tock’s Time Suspenders. The media message could be, don’t waste your existence waiting, at the press of a button, go into a state of suspended animation with the aid of Tock’s Time Suspenders, exist longer, don’t die waiting.

Cybo said, that is one of the great benefits of being media content makers, it is all conceptual. All you have to do is believe and everything and whatever is wonderfully rewarding. Digitol Spiritualism, a new age for citizens to exist in, long live the digi-kidz for finding this new path to follow.

Padoke said, I think you are taking credit for something that was figured out a long, long time ago, sorry kidz, the metaphysical is not new.
