Captain's Log:
We humans exist in time slices. It is a fraction of time which we choose to perceive. For example, codons read by transcriptase on a strand of DNA rely on a defined starting point. From that origin, the amino acid is decoded. (A codon is a series of 3 nucleotides which define one of 20 defined amino acids.)
WE perceive time as the net perception elapsed since some arbitrary start point.
If you change the starting point, do humans perceive an entirely different universe? Consider 'time' as a physical entity like the nucleotides in a strand of DNA, or beads on a string.
In the absence of reason, we cling to the last vestige of reality - physical sensations which distract us from the more immediate and pressing matters of which we are always, just barely, aware.
In a single time slice, what concerns us? What was the most persistent issue at that EXACT moment? That is what we obviously are drawn to, like a cosmic sleight of hand. THAT is misdirection.
In the parlance of our times, it is called magic.

Probably because the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack would have been great for an animated flick.

Can't get rid of me that easily - try committing seppuku if you want to get rid of me.
Or drink a milkshake - I'm lactose intolerant.
