This is genius! Saturday, December 8th has been declared "Pretend to be a Time Traveler Day." The whole idea is to pretend for the day that you are a traveler from a different time - except that, of course, you can't actually *tell* people you're a time traveler, because they'll think you're crazy.
...
1) Utopian/cliché Future
- Greet people by referring to things that don't yet exist or haven't existed for a long time. Example: "Have you penetrated the atmosphere lately?" "What spectrum will today's broadcast be in?" and "Your king must be a kindly soul!"
2) Dystopian Future
- Stand in front of a statue (any statue, really), fall to your knees, and yell "NOOOOOOOOO"
3) The Past
- Be generally terrified of people who are dressed immodestly compared to your era. Tattoos and shorts on women are especially scary.
