Time Dilation

According to Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity, moving clocks run slower. The faster they move, the slower they run. Thus, it is theoretically possible for people to sit in fast moving rockets and prolong their lives / stave off aging. However, this isnt really feasible cos we dont have the technology to move at fast enough speeds (has to be a fraction of the speed of light), plus when you get to high enough speeds, your mass increases, and by E=mc2, you need alot of energy to maintain that speed.

So while Time Dilation does occur in our everyday life (on the scale of nanoseconds), it is not yet possible to see its effects on a macroscopic scale.

Or is it?

It has come to light in recent years that a company by the name of Valve has succeeded in time dilation, pioneered by the work of a certain Gordon Freeman. Users of the process 'TTFE' are said to undergo time dilation, and unbeknowst to myself, I too have undergone this process, only realising it recently. After just 15min of TTFE, i checked my watch and realised that a whole 2 hours had passed! Time had slowed by 8X for me. Therefore according to my calculations, a previous 4 years of TTFE would have led me to only age by 1/2 a year, which totally accounts for my current appearance and maturity.

Of course, all these has led to opposition from unbelievers, who prefer to call it mental and physical retardation (ie my mom)

This leads me to remark on the beauty of the English language, where there are so many words to express just one meaning. For example, 'well, done, but it could have been even better' means 'it sucks'. The following examples should make it clearer:

Commitment: The fear of going to jail
Well-disciplined: The fear of going to jail
Operationally-Rdy: The fear of going to jail
