    The internet did not exist in 1970, so I am not buying this shit.

    I actually was showing you up with my movie trivia knowledge. I blatantly stole that from Pirates of the Carribean, thank you. Besides, saying "I'm am" in there kinda blew the feel of the post.

    Good word. Good movie. I think I may just pop that in and watch it.

    What the fuck is an anachronistic?
    Dude, I hope you realise I am a non-native English speaker and besides that I have no idea what the word means.

    an anachronism is basically something that is without time. For instance if you were watching a civil war movie and saw a rolex... that is an anachronism.

    Bad example, a Rolex is with time.
    Can you give another example?

    When something is anachronistic, its a misplaced reference before its time.
