it would frankly be dumb not to throw the party, because at worst you just have a bit of a weird boring party, and at best you meet some fucking time travellers

  But what if the time travellers start asking for your clothes, your boots and your motorcycle?

    well maybe that’s why they didn’t come to Hawking’s party, they’d have to strip him and it’s not like he has use for a motorcycle.
