T-Rex: What if you wrote a story about modern technology arriving BEFORE it did in our timeline? You'd have computers made out of brass and steam! That sounds like it might be... AWESOME?
God: THAT GENRE IS CALLED STEAMPUNK T-REX
T-Rex: Okay whatever!
T-Rex: What if you wrote a story about modern technology arriving AFTER it did in our timeline? You'd have no computers at all, and people riding around on horses saying "Gosh I wish we invented computers! Goooossssh!"
Dromiceiomimus: Arguably, that's what fantasy stories are, aren't they?
T-Rex: FINE.
T-Rex: What if you wrote a story about modern technology arriving at the usual time?
Utahraptor: Historical non-fiction!
T-Rex: Utahraptor, I'm an idea man. Please give me an idea so that I can write an amazing story about it, okay?
Utahraptor: Easy! "Too many teens on the boat".
T-Rex: That's not an idea!
T-Rex: That is either a SONG TITLE or an ENTERTAINING CIRCUMSTANCE.
Narrator: LATER: TOO MANY TEENS ARE ON A BOAT:
T-Rex: Teens! We have reasonable capacity laws on seafaring vessels for a reason!!
T-Rex: AW FRIG
T-Rex: THAT IS A SENTENCE ONLY AN OLD MAN WOULD SAY
