Heisenberg Uncertainty Glasses & Contact Lenses
So I just had the conversation on the phone.

Receptionist: America's Best Contact Lenses. Can I schedule an appointment?

Me: Actually, I already have an appointment for later today. I just had a question about your location.

Receptionist: OK.

Me: I got some conflicting results from mapquest and google. One says you're located near the arena, another says near the mall. I was just wondering which it was.

Receptionist: Well it depends. Where are you?

Me: (( :wtf: )) Well I'm in Union Dale, but I don't see how that matters, where you are is where you are.

Receptionist: Well it depends. Are you coming from the north or south?

Me: Uh, the north...look, I got these two locations off of the computer, and I'd just like to know which one is correct...

conversation continues :banghead:


So, will America's Best be there when I get there? If where I am matters, should I leave from here, or somewhere else? :wtf:

3. Well, I'm off to my appointment.
If I take a left turn into the Twilight Zone I'll be back to make a report. Assuming the Twilight Zone has DSL. :P

4. Well, duh...
If you're coming from the north, they're near the arena.

If you're coming from the south, they're near the mall.

They move location to the appropriate place as soon as they know where you're coming from.

Come from the east or west, and their heads will smoke and spin!

:rofl:

7. Well, I'm back!
It turns out that the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle Eyeglass and Contact Lens Center was located near the mall...this time. Nothing strange happened. Left turns did not take me to the Twilight Zone, nor did instances of deja vu indicate that I was in the matrix. However, I do have to go back for a follow-up in one week. :tinfoilhat:

9. Since you drove to the mall
that's where it had to be. Just like when you open the box, the cat has to be in one of the states.

10. But does this mean that since it was at the mall this time...
...it will almost certainly not occupy the same space next time? Or does it mean that since I perceive it to be at the mall, it will always at the mall? My head hurts.

8. You may have been in Union Dale, but she was probably in Bangalore.
