These questions have always spun me out.
If the universe had a beginning, what was there before?
If the universe is expanding, what is it expanding in to?
-
Who built the simulation? And where did their universe come from?
And can they please stop watching me masturbate in the toilet?

Yeah. Define "nothing".
If there was "nothing" before there was not even time.
And in our concept of "nothing" we probably think of vast swathes of space - a void - but even that is a something ...
And the extension is if "in the beginning" there was nothing then "everything" added together adds up to, well, nothing ...
Eeek ...

Thats the bit I always struggle with, the whole idea that to us there is no "before" because time as we understand it is just another thing created by the big bang itself.
So there is no "before" as there was no such thing as time. Einstein got it & rolled it into relativity, personally I just accept its something I'll never really get my head round. I think they are saying there was something before the BB, but as it was impossible to measure in anyway its irrelevant. IE pre BB mass was infinate & time didn't exist. Much smarter people who have devoted their life to physics get it & thats good enough for me.
Yet I'm more than happy to buy that any super massive thing can distort time (eg black hole) which is in the same ball park. Once you buy that you are buying the idea that time is no different to any other dimension we can measure.

Why couldn't I be the model run that got to shag all the hot chicks?
If I ever meet that version - he's fucking dead!!!
