What Are Possible Impossiblities?

“The Poet ought rather to chuse Impossibilities, provided they have Resemblance to the Truth, than the Possible, which are Incredible with all their Possibility.”
- Henry Fielding, quoting Aristotle in The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling

After Judgment Day

In the post-apocalyptic world after Judgment Day:

Los Angeles is a barren wasteland.

San Francisco is home to evil technology and an apocalypse standard-issue ruined Golden Gate Bridge.

Women wear skin-tight jeans and have luxurious, full-bodied hair and perfect teeth.

But Bryce Dallas Howard is bogarting a stash of lip gloss and blush.

John Connor has a podcast.

And something so awesome happens that I involuntarily exclaimed, “WHOA!”

No doubt we’ll all enjoy this soon, now that SkyNet has been launched.
