What is time?

Time is the measurement of which an action happens in relation to other actions.

Nothing more, nothing less.

Oh, god. This one again. This is a pretty good read. But in general, as Gris already said, time is a measurement of the rate at which things happen, be it the rate of something or the time between something.

Also, as this one is quite interesting (if I do say so myself – ‘twas my very first question on fluther).

time is a perception.

Time is something invented by man. It is pure fiction, but also reality ( in our minds that is )

jesus christ, chels. go to sleep

@Grisaille lmfao. Speak for yourself!

Anyway, as I was typing before @Grisaille interrupted me..

Shit.. now I forgot what I was going to say.

Time is apparently something I have too much of. But really, some of those songs are great! :D

@chelseababyy I like that answer.

@chelseababyy. It’s admirable when someone puts that much effort into composing an answer. Nice work and great answer. =)

@rebbel Thanks!
@Bluefreedom I really did put almost an hour of my time into it. And I put some great stuff in there. 3pm is hilarious, but then again, I’m overly tired..

!

@Grisaille ROFL. Just watching that over and over and listening to “uhdon worreh” is making me lol so hard

Time is how much longer you have to wait for that powerpoint to end.

or how much longer you have to wait to start if you have an inexperienced person setting it up…

Time is the fourth dimension, but according to this, time is squishy.

It’s simply a mathematical expression in relationship to constant change. Your brain is a self actualizing feed back loop and is incapable expressing to others what is wishes without the use of the fantasy of time. I.E. there is no such thing a time.

I agree in that it is a constant ongoing measurement of events invented by man. Doesn’t stop me from writing that story that involves time travel, though. :P

A David Bowie song

i think time is a dimension and i also think time is fleeting. especially when i spend time on FB, Fluther, and other sites, time is fleeting.

A dimension

A magazine.
A Hasbro® game.
A cereal (Mikey’s favorite).
You pick.

It’s what prevents everything from happening at once.

A very brilliant and very cruel joke.

Oh man. This is so hard. So measurements of time are man made, but like, time does exist. Because things that happened in the past aren’t happening now. So there is a difference. So thats time? So confusing.

It’s relative. So don’t get to close to the event horizon of a black hole.

Time speeds up when I am sitting on my outdoor furniture outside in the sun dreading a dentist appointment… it then slows down when I am at work!

….of the essence.

Time is money!

can’t believe no one said that already

Not quite on topic, but you reminded me of this, @daloon:

Girls = Money x Time (given)
Time = Money (substitution)
Girls = Money x Money (simplify)
Girls = Money^2
Money = Squareroot of all Evil (substitution)
Girls = (Squareroot of all Evil)^2 (simplify)
Girls = Evil

now here’s hoping my girlfriend doesn’t see this… >.>
