Liberty Mutual Defies Time, Space



Awwww well isn't this a cute commercial you've seen about 1700 times. I have, and around viewing number 6 I realized I was witnessing some type of good deed wormhole situation.

So the "pay it forward" concept of the commercial is pretty basic--someone does a good deed and someone else is inspired by it and does the same in turn, setting off a chain reaction. So how does the commercial go back to the woman at the very beginning, only this time we see her inspiration came from a guy who wouldn't have put money in that meter in the first place if not for the woman and the pizza guy?! We're trapped in an infinite loop. You've blown my mind, Liberty Mutual.

On a quick side note, is it really considered an out of the ordinary good deed to grab a guy to prevent him from walking into a freaking car?! Who sees that and says "oh wow that lady saved that guy's life, I should probably help this lady get her stroller off the bus." Liberty Mutual clearly has a skewed sense of time and of human nature.
