Make money.
Steven Cloud: wanna be rich?
Pijohos: yes
Steven Cloud: invent a new religion. we worship a truly benevolent being called gosh. and it's just thinly disguised logic and reason and practical ways to insure you're being a decent person, but we get rich selling the books. we're still doing a good thing b/c the main tenet of the religion is that there are many ways to gosh. it's a post-modern religion in that everyone kind of follows it ironically, but they don't have to outright say they're an atheist
Steven Cloud: it's kind of a code
Pijohos: praise gosh

Cananopie: right

Steven Cloud: well, I know you're Joe Cool and all, but I'm not ashamed of liking Star Trek.
Cananopie: Just teasing man. Trek the stars forever!
Steven Cloud: man, if time travel were possible, future me would be honking the horn of the Enterprise outside your window right now. you'd look out your window and see future me flipping you the bird then ZAP! gone.
Cananopie: Me -1 Future You - 0
