Wooooooooooo! Who are you?! Your ghost. Oh my goo... Wait. I'm not dead yet. How can I have a ghost? In the future, you invent a time machine, then go back to fix your teen years. But teenage you is a really bad driver, so he runs over future you. Future you becomes ghost you. Ghost you finds teenage you really annoying, so ghost you wait until teenage you becomes present you for making contact. So... What do you want? You must avenge my death. Build a time machine and go kill teenage us. But... If I kill him, we both cease to exist. Remember when he asked a girl out through a KFC drive-thru window, and he thought she said yes, but she was actually talking to the next customer about available coleslaw sizes? We will make him pay.

Older me: "Just a second. Umm, yeah. Just a second here. Ahhh. Let me guess, the reason YOU went back in time is because you/I were visited by ghost future you/me and it/you/me talked you/future me into building the time machine in the first place/earlier occurrence of this event in cyclical time, but you/future me FORGOT this little detail/temporal artifact. So, if I/past you ignore you/future me RIGHT NOW, you go away, I don’t build the machine so you/future me don’t visit me/past you, and I’m never reminded of why teenage us was such a dick.Ghost me: “My head hurts. Kill you.”
