@mediajunkie yes. need a term.
@toddbarnard Like X-Men? Or:
“We meet next weekend.” — knowledge of an inevitable future.
“I met her next weekend.” — first person past, yet current timeline future. Possibly only applicable to time travelers.
Possible scifi source material for more examples:
* Minority Report
* Fringe
* X-Men: Days of Future Past
@potch future perfect is close, looking for more inevitable:
“Happy about the pizza I ate later today” or
“Tomorrow we looked at today through yesterday’s mirror.”
Is there a past-tense-like verb tense for talking about likely/inevitable future events as if they’d already happened?
@NikeSupport: would be awesome if friends could record #nikeplus congrats for each other; hear them among celebrities.
Sometimes I’ll run 3 days in a row b/c @shalaneflanagan might give congrats after on #nikeplus: “Wow. That’s three days in a row. Boom.”
