Leave Quantum Physics out of Everyday Socialization

Random:	So what do you think is going to happen at 11:11:11 11/11/11
Me:	We'll all be one second older?
Random:	You don't think we'll be visited by some cosmic spirit?
Me:	If there was some interstellar consciousness that was going to come visit us why would he care about a random palindrome in our crude concept of time? also what about time zones? Not to mention daylight savings time.
Random:	wait what do you mean crude concept of time.
Me:	Look, time is just an illusion as a result of the fact that information and matter are limited by the speed of light and unable to exist in two places simultaneously, creating a constant linear cause-and-effect relationship. Clocks, calendars, years are just our way of quantifying it according to our perception.
Random:	*blank stare*
Me:	I mean that's one way of looking at it at least.
Random:	*continued, unflinching blank stare*
Me:	kay... I'm gonna go.
