What would you do if you could go back in time? Kill Hitler? Save Lincoln from getting shot in that theater? Keep a young Justin Bieber off of YouTube? Well, whatever your plans for time travel may be, they can now become a reality thanks to a totally legit looking ad on Palm Springs Craigslist.
The Craigslist listing reads:
This is a time machine with some moderate use. It has been sitting for a few years and it does need some repair. The power crystals have been spent, the casing on one of the stabilizers is slightly cracked following a temporal distortion event in 2013, the cooling tank was ruptured and has been removed and there will need to be some rewiring/soldering along with a fusion core. The last two pictures are just showing a test run and will not include the water pump or the working displacment dampeners.
You get all that? And wait, moderate use? Holy crap. Someone is already been screwing with the timeline. Great Scott! This explains why you have not won the lottery like you should have. Stupid butterfly effect. Oh well.
The time machine is only going for a grand on Craigslist, which might seem like a steal. But the current owner admits that there were some “unforeseen effects” during their last time using it and now they “will not be able to return to my own time”.
Bummer.
Gotta be careful with these things.
