Meeting 42: Time-Traveling Hygiene Protocol 42c
Attendees:
- President of the Time Continuum
- Director of Hygiene
- Dr. Chronos, The Time-Traveling Scientist
Agenda:
1. Review of the current timeline
2. Discussion of new hygiene protocols for visiting parallel universes
3. Vote on the best way to deal with rogue time travelers
Protocol 42c:
A new protocol for dealing with the aftermath of a time-traveling accident:
When a time traveler returns from a visit to a parallel universe, they must undergo a rigorous series of questions and tests to ensure they are not bringing any "unhygienic" elements back to the original timeline.
This includes:
- Answering a series of trivia questions about their visit
- Passing a series of smell-based challenges
- Providing a sample of their DNA for analysis
Failure to comply will result in immediate deletion of the time traveler's consciousness and replacement with a genetically engineered, cookie-cutter clone.
