God midnight to 6 AM is not enough. I need nine hours! Nine! Nine! *shakes fist at clock*

I found a hugeass loophole in my essay on the part about how freezing time is in essence the same as freezing space because if you consider a bullet in motion, if you freeze the space it should drop to the ground after you unfreeze it, having lost its momentum, but if you freeze the time it should continue, retaining its momentum.

...I'll just hope he doesn't notice that part. =.=

Now, here's a question. If a house was burning down and you heard a baby and/or a cat inside, would your reaction be different depending on which it was?

Lameass kid's answer: Save the baby, don't save the cat, because cats are less important.
Raph's answer: Save the baby, don't save the cat, because cats are smarter than babies and can save themselves.

My answer, having been through so many cats in my lifetime: Some cats sound just like babies, and as there is no good way to tell them apart there is no good way to react differently.

It's true! There are cats that meow just like a baby crying.

Off to shower now.

Wait, but why does the bullet continue if you freeze time? Then again what does freezing time entail...oh my goodness.

I'm not sure that there's a good distinction between freezing space and freezing time because time is essentially the fourth dimension of space.

Well, my mental idea is that you sort of pause time, right, so imagine you paused time in the room. When you unpause it, everything will keep going as it should have gone 3 hours ago or w/e, so the bullet will continue down its merry path to where your head used to be. Or wherever it was headed.

Whereas if you froze the bullet itself, as opposed to time, like froze it in midair, when you unfreeze it it will find itself suspended in midair w/no momentum and fall to the ground!

Does that make sense? kinda?
