It's not really an opinion is it? It's just a fact. The truth.


Do you really believe some people have psychic powers or the ability to predict the future? Wouldn't they use their power for either a) making loads of money or b) saving the world rather than getting ?50 a pop for telling gullible types that they'll meet a tall dark stranger?

And if there was no one there to see it at the exact time that it was posted - did it make sense?

Not that it matters - you are all figments of my imagination anyway.

No. I don't mean the past exists in the present. Only that the present is all that exists now. What happened in the 'past' may indeed affect the present because most of us find it difficult not to try and live there or in the future. Thereby missing the only moment they have that's actually real, the present.


We are in the top half of the hourglass. What's in the bottom half is what was and is no more.

But isn't the star proof that the past existed in the past, or are you suggesting that light magically materialises in your eye?

We good test for it but tests imply cause and effect which, though rather begging the question again, probably imply that time is linear therefore the past existed.

    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.
