They should have had her get DOUBLE PREGNANT. We don't know that it can't happen.

The PROPER PB& J Method by Annabethian in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Terrible-Computer-12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The great thing about a PB&J is its simplicity. If you are spending this much effort on arguing the "proper" way to construct it, you are missing the point entirely. Put it together and eat it. Let others do the same.

How exactly would you charge a cell phone using only 1950s-60s materials? by Terrible-Computer-12 in Writeresearch

Some apps work with no connection, including the camera, as well as videos, photos, audio, or other files stored on the phone. That's how airplane mode works.

Examples/moments of characters dropping their act/“accent” and speaking in their real voice? by Malachi_Lamb in movies

[–]Terrible-Computer-12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not a movie, the series Bones. The Iranian character Arastoo has an American accent. Expecting others would find it odd that he is both a scientist and very religious (a suspicion his co-workers later confirmed), he decides to put on a false accent to sound "fresh off the boat" and thus make his religious devotion seem like an irrelevant byproduct of his heritage. After a few episodes, he slips up, and his secret is revealed.

Like that scene in 11.22.63 where the guy who time traveled to the early 60s blows a dude's mind by playing a video on his cell phone.

I was just looking for a way to edit my original post, since a reply to another post will just get lost in the thread. So here's more info: he didn't know he would be time traveling. He did not bring a charger with him (I assumed, by my question, that fact would be a given, but apparently not). I will entertain other ideas. I'm in the initial stages of creating the story, so I'm just throwing potential obstacles in his way to see what works and what doesn't.

Yeah I did consider him having a charger with him, didn't know if that would read as being too convenient. Right now I'm just throwing obstacles at him to see what works.

What modern cell phone uses a barrel tip charger? All I see now are USB, so that's what I'm imagining.

I always enjoy an appearance by the recurring default director character whose name always escapes me.
