And on the flip side
... there are millions of parallel universes were One Direction have never existed.
How do I get there ?
It turns out there's more than one direction One Direction could be heading in, after megaboffin Stephen Hawking comforted fans with the claim that Zayn Malik may still be in the band in a parallel universe. The theoretical physics professor was beamed via hologram from Cambridge, England to the Sydney Opera House in Oz to …
What if some evil people have commandeered our beloved megaboffin for their own financial gain? This one-direction thing shirley could be evidence.
Perhaps his image and synthetic voice being are being sold for a fee to this or that stunt or conference? Perhaps he's appearing right this moment to different groups of people, saying different things, whilst the real Steven Hawking is sitting at home totally oblivious to it all, sucking a cup of tea and watching Only Connect.
In short, is there perhaps a multiverse of criminally-directed Steven Hawking appearances?
It is of course possible to create your own custom universe in your office, so you can research stories in the daytime, and still go to parties in the evening.
Where I read that? Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy of course
OK, so I would like one universe to go, with extra Ford Prefect and Zaphod Beeblebrox, but hold the One Direction, Justin Bieber, and the entire Kardashian clan
If the direction of 1 Direction in this universe is defined by a different set of Euler angles to the direction of 1 Direction in another universe, can those two universes truly be described as Parallel Universes?
Which direction is the 1 Direction anyway? Does anybody know? Does anybody care?
We get the one where Stephen Hawking has a sense of humor (humour). In a different one, he ripped the questioner a new one about wasting his time on inconsequential crap. But if it encourages one person to go into physics that's good. Yeah... stupid motivation but whatever motivates your boat and all that.
