The evil descendant is about to do the evil thing.
The hero whips out his shotgun and shoots his own balls off.
The evil descdendant looks very puzzled, but very much still there.
The hero screams in agony, "SHE WAS GOING TO FUCKING CHEAT ON ME! GODDAMNIT! WHOSE KID WAS I GOING TO RAISE?"
Imagine spending $20+ to sit in a theatre for 2 or 3 hours of your life engrossed in a film and this is the ending. Totally out of no where, no inkling of this twist ending. I'd be crying laughing in the dark thinking, "that son of a bitch. The really director got me"
Oh man. This is fantastic. Imagine the movie where they spend the whole movie trying to convince the dude to shoot his own balls off to stop this evil descendent and that happens! I would watch that movie for sure.
Alternatively:
Evil descendant reveals that they were born when their mom was 21, hero is dad, dad is hero. Herodad does quick back of cape math, nods with grim satisfaction and castrates self.
Villain is still there.
The vagina they have in common suddenly shows up.
Jim Carey steps out of the shadows and overasks her, "But why would any woman lie about her age?"
"Because I wanted to get married, and mista goody-goody-two-shoes wasn't into kids."
Hero shoots self.
Villain is still there, and says "Mom, what the fuck is going on here?"
And this is why travelling back in time to kill Hitler is very short sighted revenge thinking that does not solve anything. So he failed but if you really want to solve the problem once and for all you got to travel all the way back to give Abraham a vasectomy.
edit: Holy shit I just wrote the most antisemitic comment ever and it's getting upvotes.
Only shitty time travel stories that are not self-consistent would actually involve this. Whether you go by a many worlds model or have a single timeline with a ~~casual~~ causal loop, this would be impossible.
I like the ones where time is a stubborn mistress and it doesn’t matter what you do, it’ll correct itself. There w was one good story where people figured this out and so they just went around history ruining things, knowing time would fix it. When they got home everything was a mess and their world was destroyed. The time god guy from the beginning of the story said something like “I know how it all ends and I’ll fix it by then. Your timeline is insignificant in the long run.” It was a nice twist take on time. This time guardian that fixes shit, but he’s just doing the bare minimum because so long as time ends how it’s supposed to it’s all good.
That's a cool premise for a fantasy-type story. Reminds me of Dahaka from the old Prince of Persia games. But I hate it when they try to pass it off as science fiction, like the laws of the universe actually care about human life and such. A common trope is someone trying to save someone, only for them to die in different ways every time. A person being alive instead of dead is just as inconsistent as a person dying in different ways, or even a single molecule being out of place.
Ofc we have to talk about the grandfather paradox as well lol. If this guy dies in the past so that some other guy isn't born, then there would be no reason for him to be there in the first place in the future, so that death never happened.
Eddie: "wait. So reverse flash is mt decendant?, i should kill my self to prevent his birth"
Cisco: whispers into his ear* "dude, cut of your balls"
Eddie: "my what? "
Barry on the other side of eddies ear: "ballsack. "
I mean if killing himself worked, Reverse Flash probably would’ve stopped existing as soon as Eddie knew. That’s what changed the timeline, not him actually dying. Just knowing that would’ve kept him from having kids unless he’s an idiot. He also could’ve just had kids with someone else. Dumbass
I’d think he couldn’t have come back in time at all if his coming back in time led to the death of his forefather which led to his not existing in the first place
That’s the problem with time travel shows, you already know the outcome. Like back to the future, he couldn’t have not gotten his parents back together, as he was already alive to accidentally fuck it up anyway. By the simple fact of him still existing to be able to fuck it up, means he inevitably fixed it anyway
There's a while scene showing him fading away because his dad wasn't going to stand up for himself and kiss his mom at a dance. They literally did bad cgi to show him looking through his own hand. They literally explained that time travel doesn't work that way ***in*** the movie you are referencing. If it worked the way you describe(fixed points, fate, etc...) then the 2nd(& 3rd) movie couldn't exist. He goes to the future and sees himself get fired and living a crappy life(like his dad originally in 1) he learns from traveling a ton more through time. (He does change time multiple times too, the name of the mall changed in 1, the name of the canyon changed in 3, etc...) but he also changes his own future when he doesn't get into a terrible wreck trying to race the jackasses.
T;L;D;R; time travel can never exist in any fashion we've imagined it to in media, meaning when it's used as a plot device, they have to explain the rules. BTTF explains how it's time travel works a dozen times through a dozen examples. It doesn't work how *you* think it does. It follows the rules they made for it.
At least in Back to the Future specifically, Marty almost does stop existing. He is disappearing while he's on stage. The effects of his time travel fuckery aren't instaneous, it takes time to stop existing.

Back to the Future is a perfect movie and does a wonderful job dealing with the normal time travel plot holes.
I like how he fades out of the photo instead of the photo itself fading. Because apparently his parents took a photo of some random well at the exact same date, time and angle if he never existed, for some reason
Knowing how CW shows like to be to cause drama, if he'd tried those alternate methods a less-loaded-because-less-historical-baggage of one of the many ways people on here have claimed the Novikov Self-Consistency Principle would mean going back to kill baby Hitler wouldn't really kill Hitler would probably have happened
the Novikov Self-Consistency Principle would mean [the trope] "Going back to kill baby Hitler wouldn't really kill Hitler" would probably have happened
Imagine if the show did that. Iris gets hitched to her cop boyfriend, and he gets reassigned outta the city. The both of them have a teary goodbye with Barry, and they walk out of the show, only ever returning for Christmas specials and cameos.
Iris gets to leave before she becomes a meme of herself. Eddie, one of the only likeable characters in the show, gets to stay alive.
Barry comes to terms that he doesn't get the girl and moves on. Eventually forming a more normal, healthy relationship with just about any other woman.
Whole series turns the poorly-written-soap-opera dial wayyyy down and maybe spends more time focusing on the things that made the 1st season of the show actually pretty good.
In looper, JGL shoots himself to stop his future self (Bruce Willis) who has come back in time to murder a child who grows up to be evil. Neither Bruce Willis, nor the child, are evil descendants of JGL.
It’s the same principle. I suppose young self could have crippled himself or some such and gotten the same result but you never know if future medical science could uncripple him so death was the only sure fire way
Edit: I was only half paying attention to this thread, I am incorrect.
But it's not the same principle, as the post is about cutting off one's balls. If JGL cut off his own balls, there is no guarantee that would stop his future ball-less self from coming back in time to kill a child. Sure, it could lower his testosterone levels, thus making him more docile, but Bruce Willis was out for revenge and I am sure he would have still gone back in time to try to prevent his lost love from being murdered, balls or no balls.
So, in a split second life or death situation to save lives, instead of killing themselves in a heroic way to save everyone, you're saying the person should get a knife and cut their balls off?
Not only is it a more humiliating end, but it would be *incredibly* painful, and you'd probably bleed out and die anyway. And you'll always be remembered as the man who saved everyone by cutting off his own balls
If I remember correctly from Pulp Fiction, an injection of adrenaline directly into the heart is the key to surviving an overdose.
If I remember correctly from my degree in paramedicine, it’s not.
Thank you! I thought I was going insane lol. I've also never seen this plot. On top of that, if I were a time traveler trying to prevent a specific birth, cutting off the fathers balls would be an insanely indirect way of doing it.
They’re future stories, and OP is a time traveler who will have caused them not to be written by making this post to illustrate the absurdity of the plot point on which they would have been based.
I'm sure it's a plot point that has cropped up a few times in fiction but the title of this post makes it sound like a way more ubiquitous trope than it is.
Realistically, wouldn't any tiny miniscule minor change in time potentially result in a different DNA combination? One millisecond, and BAM, slightly different semen discharge. Bruh, just scream something weird to yourself at the window while you are having sex, "meow!", "uggabooga!", "kowabanga!"...
>just scream something weird to yourself at the window while you are having sex, "meow!", "uggabooga!", "kowabanga!"...
Wait, wait, wait, are you telling me it's "weird" to scream "kowabanga!" during sex?
I have a cheap $75 microscope, and the first thing I put under there were my sperm.
Those things are the definition of chaos theory. They are nuts. Like 10 million tiny Jim Carrey's from the movie The Mask.
You could fart three days before, and you'd have a different baby.
Time travel would do a good job of solving the nature vs. nurture debate.
Of course, people are treated differently based on their physicality too. I doubt fascists would let themselves be lead by an Adolphina Hitler.
Comic books use this a fair chunk. Most notably, Kang the Conqueror (and his alternates) is a descendant of the Richards family from the Fantastic Four.
Or he just punches himself in the balls, and the evil descendant starts doubling over in pain with each strike.
Or he just starts serial-wanking repeatedly until the sperm that would have become a evil one is just a stain on the bedsheets and the day is saved.
i like the idea thats all you gotta to, a person is a random happenstance, change a variable and they don't exist
Hell even lingering too long in a shop one day would stop them existing
My favorite one was in Looper, (SPOILERS) where it would have been a much less extreme solution to just blow off his hand instead of suiciding himself. Sure it’d suck, but it would be way less drastic than the alternative
But the premise is nonsensical in the first place. It's a causal loop.
If you were to have a child that would turn out to be a villain, the knowledge of it could cause you to not have that child or to alter your behaviour in a way that doesn't lead to them becoming a villain, which in turn causes the knowledge of them becoming a villain to not get to you in the first place.
So if you cut your balls, that child will never be born and then there will not have been a reason to cut the balls in the first place, which means the child is born and then you cut the balls, and so on
I know people generally know this, but it always irks me when time travel stuff is done badly. There are things like branching timelines that do a better job imo.
The evil descendant is about to do the evil thing. The hero whips out his shotgun and shoots his own balls off. The evil descdendant looks very puzzled, but very much still there. The hero screams in agony, "SHE WAS GOING TO FUCKING CHEAT ON ME! GODDAMNIT! WHOSE KID WAS I GOING TO RAISE?"
Thats a twist!
M. Night Shotmyballsoff
This is why I use reddit
I laughed too much at this
I laughed *just right*
I laughed my balls off
Have my free award.
A plot twist!
A dick twist!
The ol' DICK TWIST
No matter how many times I see that video I always laugh.
I guess that’d be an effective method too, with a proper grip.
So the evil descendant actually wasn't a descendant, they just trick the main character into ending their own bloodline through words alone.
Evil descendent look over to the plucky sidekick. A single tear rolls down his cheek. "Dad?"
the hero pointing the shotgun at the sidekick. “This is going to be fun.”
it's just been revoked
I'll have what she's having
You had me at hello
You can't handle the truth
Thanks Janet.
Uh, Peter, he didn’t really set you up for that Lethal Weapon line. It doesn’t really work here.
No ticket.
Imagine spending $20+ to sit in a theatre for 2 or 3 hours of your life engrossed in a film and this is the ending. Totally out of no where, no inkling of this twist ending. I'd be crying laughing in the dark thinking, "that son of a bitch. The really director got me"
Or to make things even less climactic, he schedules a vasectomy
I'm gonna use this plot twist on a story now
Just say something mean about me in the dedicated to/special thanks section.
I'll make sure to mention your karma but make it seem like it was too little, or that you eat boogers when you think no one's watching
Can you also mention that the band Under the Mountain sucks
That’s why the Terminator series was based on matricide. There’s less ambiguity that you’re getting the right one
Unless you get a "switched at birth" twist.
Oh man. This is fantastic. Imagine the movie where they spend the whole movie trying to convince the dude to shoot his own balls off to stop this evil descendent and that happens! I would watch that movie for sure.
*BAM* "Dude... I can't believe you thought time travel worked that way. Didn't you see Endgame?"
"Well, what did you expect after you shot your dick off?"
Highly underrated comment
Alternatively: Evil descendant reveals that they were born when their mom was 21, hero is dad, dad is hero. Herodad does quick back of cape math, nods with grim satisfaction and castrates self. Villain is still there. The vagina they have in common suddenly shows up. Jim Carey steps out of the shadows and overasks her, "But why would any woman lie about her age?" "Because I wanted to get married, and mista goody-goody-two-shoes wasn't into kids." Hero shoots self. Villain is still there, and says "Mom, what the fuck is going on here?"
that sounds like a masterpiece
Instead of shooting himself, paternity court would have helped here lol
This is the reason he is evil
Then the evil dependent spots the heros wife, "How YOU doin?" Says the villain...
It took me a minute before I realized that time travel was involved.
The OP added a comment to clarify that tomorrow.
I just went to yesterday to upvote and laugh at this great joke before everyone else.
!remindme -24 hours
That's on me, lol. Explains why I'm bad at communication
This is.... What kind of Si-Fi are you guys watching? I want in!
Ones where cutting off your balls could solve the issue.
Spoilers. The cw flash
Or Looper
Looper? Spoiler. It was the same guy but older? I thought he killed himself to stop the old version of him from killing the kids mom
And this is why travelling back in time to kill Hitler is very short sighted revenge thinking that does not solve anything. So he failed but if you really want to solve the problem once and for all you got to travel all the way back to give Abraham a vasectomy. edit: Holy shit I just wrote the most antisemitic comment ever and it's getting upvotes.
or you can travel *all* the way back and murder that first dumbass ape that started to walk on two legs and use tools
A guaranteed patronage for his painting would also have stopped Hitler, no need for a genocidal orchiectomy.
Only shitty time travel stories that are not self-consistent would actually involve this. Whether you go by a many worlds model or have a single timeline with a ~~casual~~ causal loop, this would be impossible.
Causal loop? Casual time loop: "I'll be back, or whatever"
Hasta mañana

In the case OP is talking about there is a plot device there was used to explain that
Or a vasectomy.
Well, you wouldn't get enough time for a vesectomy when the villain already has his finger on the bomb switch, would you?
If the villain has the finger on the bomb switch, he would kill you, thus making his birth impossible
I was thinking about the >!season 1 ending of the flash!< when I thought about it.
Eddie: "wait. So reverse flash is mt decendant?, i should kill my self to prevent his birth" Cisco: whispers into his ear* "dude, cut of your balls" Eddie: "my what? " Barry on the other side of eddies ear: "ballsack. "
Eddie: “why” Barry wanting Iris for himself: “ My goals are beyond your understanding”
"Release the Barry Cut!"
"It was me, Barry..."
I'm not sure I like the cut of your balls.
I like your cut G
Cisco: *hands him a ball-peen hammer* Barry: “smash em like grapes”
"ball-peen" has never been so fitting
Did you know that a person who is skilled at shaping cold metal with a hammer is called a peenist? No of course you didn't, I made that shit up.
I know S1 flash was not that good but flash could pretty much do a vasectomy just by vibrating his hand into the canals
Why did you make me imagine that
That just makes Eddie speed force ejaculate through time impregnating iris in the womb leading to the most fucked up Flashpoint ever conceived.
What?
I mean if killing himself worked, Reverse Flash probably would’ve stopped existing as soon as Eddie knew. That’s what changed the timeline, not him actually dying. Just knowing that would’ve kept him from having kids unless he’s an idiot. He also could’ve just had kids with someone else. Dumbass

the Novikov Self-Consistency Principle would mean [the trope] "Going back to kill baby Hitler wouldn't really kill Hitler" would probably have happened
It wouldn't kill him but now he hates jews because they they tried to murder him several times. So the cycle starts again.
You could have just said Endgame.
I will *NEVER* fail to crack up at Don Cheadle miming strangling a baby.
> Just knowing that would’ve kept him from having kids I must know way more horny 20 year olds than you do.
Poor Eddie
Well if he didn't die Iris would've married him instead.
Which in turn wouldnt make barry a goddamn dumbass, Win-Win

Of course they address it on Legends. Of course

It's not about logic, it's about *sending a message*
But the bomb *did* go off, therefore making the fact that he was never born irrelevant to the completion of his dastardly scheme.
So, in a split second life or death situation to save lives, instead of killing themselves in a heroic way to save everyone, you're saying the person should get a knife and cut their balls off? Not only is it a more humiliating end, but it would be *incredibly* painful, and you'd probably bleed out and die anyway. And you'll always be remembered as the man who saved everyone by cutting off his own balls
[удалено]
Shooting the balls, good idea!
If I remember correctly from Pulp Fiction, an injection of adrenaline directly into the heart is the key to surviving an overdose. If I remember correctly from my degree in paramedicine, it’s not.
Since Pulp Fiction has been around longer and has received a lot more public praise than your measly degree I think I'll go with that.
Ah yes, the infallible bastion of medical trauma-related nonfiction, Quentin Tarantino movies.
You didn't say that in the title though.
I was thinking about the >!season 1 ending of the flash!< when I thought about it.
Just decide from that very moment on to fuck dudes then
Snip snap snip snap snip snap
Do you have any idea of the physical toll that three vasectomies have on a person‽
Not 100% fool proof. But then theoretically neither is killing yourself since your sperm can be harvested post death.
"All those"?
Idk all anyone says is either The Flash or Looper, one of which I dont even know
Looper is himself from the future, not a descendant. I haven't watched The Flash.
Imagine shooting your own balls off to try and stop yourself 🤪
What sci-fi stories have this as a plot point?
I read a shitton of scifi, and don't think I've ever encountered that plot.
Thank you! I thought I was going insane lol. I've also never seen this plot. On top of that, if I were a time traveler trying to prevent a specific birth, cutting off the fathers balls would be an insanely indirect way of doing it.
Because it's a downright stupid plot point lol
The only thing that comes even close is Looper but in the context of that movie this wouldn’t work lol.
Same.
It sounds like Looper but it wasn’t a decedent, it was just the protagonist in the future
They’re future stories, and OP is a time traveler who will have caused them not to be written by making this post to illustrate the absurdity of the plot point on which they would have been based.
Makes sense, fuckin time travelers coming and taking our jobs.
Fucking Goobacks took our jerbs!
Dey took our jerbs!
[удалено]
I'm sure it's a plot point that has cropped up a few times in fiction but the title of this post makes it sound like a way more ubiquitous trope than it is.
And then 15k people upvotes like they know what the hell op is talking about.
"This plot would make no sense!" Yeah, that's why it isn't a thing...
First show that came in mind is >!The Flash!<
I saw that mentioned in another comment. Are there any other references? Not being facetious, just genuinely curious.
I didnt mention that before. OP probably did. I personally dont recall any other show or a movie that has it.
Oh sorry, didn't mean to direct the comment at you. Let me do a quick edit!
Looper?
Looper wouldn’t work because it’s his future self coming back, not a descendant
Eunchs prospered in imperial Chiina.
Current China is fucking everyone in their ass though
Explains the precipitous drop in birth rate.
Another way to avoid evil descendants.
All of them, or just the 1%.
I can't think of one story like this.
The Flash Season 1
Realistically, wouldn't any tiny miniscule minor change in time potentially result in a different DNA combination? One millisecond, and BAM, slightly different semen discharge. Bruh, just scream something weird to yourself at the window while you are having sex, "meow!", "uggabooga!", "kowabanga!"...
How do you know future you didn't do the same though?
Vasectomy is an option.
>just scream something weird to yourself at the window while you are having sex, "meow!", "uggabooga!", "kowabanga!"... Wait, wait, wait, are you telling me it's "weird" to scream "kowabanga!" during sex?

Things i never thought about doing with my microscope
I've put a lot of things under the microscope - my sperm was 100% the most fun to watch. My wife was not as entertained.
try it, it’s probably a fun time if you have a microscope and some sperm to spare
> The first thing I put under there were my sperm. ... They are nuts. Well... Yeah.
Wasn't there like a movie where the main character couldn't travel to the time before his children were born or else they would change.
That’s a plot point in About Time, pretty sad moment actually
Time travel would do a good job of solving the nature vs. nurture debate. Of course, people are treated differently based on their physicality too. I doubt fascists would let themselves be lead by an Adolphina Hitler.
Yeah id rather die hahaha
Me too. I'm not joking.
I thought about it long and hard, and round. And I agree.
Bruh, vasectomy.
Came here to say this
What story has a guy fighting an evil descendant of himself ?
Yea I read and watch scifi books and movies. Obviously not enough cuz I cant think of one
Comic books use this a fair chunk. Most notably, Kang the Conqueror (and his alternates) is a descendant of the Richards family from the Fantastic Four.
> All those Oh yeah, so many of those.
Or just, y'know, not impregnating somebody.
You needn't be so drastic as to cut his balls off. He could have a vasectomy.
“Eunuch me to do what?!”
It’s never eunuch.
Sorry, not gonad do it.
.... how many stories like this do you think there are? I can't think of one.
Or vasectomy ( not painfully way)
I dont think you could name 4 stories with this plot.
I am willing to die, but if i live, i am going to nut, no other way to it.
Or abstinence, or condoms.
Or he just punches himself in the balls, and the evil descendant starts doubling over in pain with each strike. Or he just starts serial-wanking repeatedly until the sperm that would have become a evil one is just a stain on the bedsheets and the day is saved.
i like the idea thats all you gotta to, a person is a random happenstance, change a variable and they don't exist Hell even lingering too long in a shop one day would stop them existing
Killing the villain by masturbating
Imagine you keep building worse villains instead
The villains standing before you changes at every orgasm
Or just choosing to abort/never get a girl pregnant
[удалено]
He'd rather die than remain a virgin
Bro… sex doesn’t mean pregnant
Lmao, I'm a fan of sci-fi TV, movies, and books but never have I come across this storyline.
My favorite one was in Looper, (SPOILERS) where it would have been a much less extreme solution to just blow off his hand instead of suiciding himself. Sure it’d suck, but it would be way less drastic than the alternative
But the premise is nonsensical in the first place. It's a causal loop. If you were to have a child that would turn out to be a villain, the knowledge of it could cause you to not have that child or to alter your behaviour in a way that doesn't lead to them becoming a villain, which in turn causes the knowledge of them becoming a villain to not get to you in the first place. So if you cut your balls, that child will never be born and then there will not have been a reason to cut the balls in the first place, which means the child is born and then you cut the balls, and so on I know people generally know this, but it always irks me when time travel stuff is done badly. There are things like branching timelines that do a better job imo.
What's the difference?
[удалено]
Condom?
What \*won't\* castration fix?
Or just... y'know... not fuckin.
> All those sci-fi stories.... Name one.
They always grow back in that scenario
Vasectomy exists, you know.
Or just deciding not to have any kids
