Some background information: John Titor is the Paul Bunyan of time travel. Eloi Cole is either the James Frey of time travel or the Billy the Kid of time travel.

John Titor and Eloi Cole are sitting at a bar. John is drinking beer and Eloi is drinking 12-year-old single malt. Both are getting to the point of talking too much.
At one point, John says, “Eloi, what year did you say you came from again?”
Eloi responds, “That depends, John. What year did you come from?”

The Price is Right strategy comes to play at this moment. If Eloi says 2016, then John will say 2017. John can say whatever he wants about the year 2017 because Eloi doesn’t know what has happened in 2017. Furthermore, John can ask Eloi who won the World Series in 2016. In addition, John can always use the future civil war to combat the World Series question. Yet, there are too many chess moves for both of them so it’s best that the subject changes.

Eloi says, “What’s the best joke of the day from whence you came?”
John says, “Lisa Rinna from the old, old television show Baywatch walks into a bar. The bartender says, ‘Hey, what happened to your lips? You look 10 years younger!””
Eloi says, “And then what?”
John says, “That’s the joke. When the civil war comes, nothing is funny. Uplifting stories are preferred.”

Eloi can’t think of a move and says, “Bartender, I’ll have another Mountain Dew Code Red.” He turns to John and says, “Thank God for time machines.”
