First off: points deducted for the many many references to the lead female character's large breasts and large sized body. Male main character at one point imagined that she's never been called hot, and he patted himself on the back for repeatedly telling her she's hot. So generous. I actually double checked that this was not written by a 30 year old man. Was the author trying to imagine what the lead male character's inner monologue would be? Bleh. Also, the main character's landlord is Indian, and his voice is read with an Indian accent.
Ordinarily the above would have resulted in a DNF...but the story was unique. Dude has a wormhole in his closet and takes money from music fans so they can see the show they missed.... everything from huge music festivals to some obscure show in a dive bar in 1986.
Obviously this can't last. A mistake is made, and dude needs help...enter the hot astrophysics PhD candidate wearing a band T-shirt.
Can you change the future? Can you live with the consequences? Might you be happier in a different time?
