What would you do with the incredible power of time travel? No, look... no, you can't stop historical tragedies from happening because you can only go back in time 48 hours so- no, you can't buy a lottery ticket either because you're a teenager in this scenario, so you- no, you can't see wonderful things all over the world, you have to remain within a 20 minute travel radius of your school. You'd use it to stop nerds embarrassing themselves two days in the past? Yeah, that's probably as good as it's going to get, isn't it.
That's the decision the heroes of this week's DCOM, 2008's Minutemen, also come to and before long they're popping out of a time hole to stop a nerd from getting pantsed, and barreling through the space time continuum to prevent a geek from walking around school with toilet paper stuck to his shoe. But when their chronovigilantism offers one of them a chance to undo his greatest mistake, will he take it? Listen and find out!
