Physicists Propose a Mirror Universe Where Time Moves in the Opposite Direction

Imagine waking up after death and living out your old age, until you grew young enough to have a career, and hoped someday to go to college. This is what life might be like in the “mirror” universe, the exact opposite of ours. According to two teams of physicists, our universe may have a twin where time moves backward.

Of course, this is all just theoretical. But the theory answers some fundamental questions physics has been wrestling with for quite some time. One is, if the universe during the Big Bang was made of equal parts matter and antimatter, where’s all the antimatter?

"The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends.  I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time.  What do you get at the end of it?  A death.  What's that, a bonus?

I think the life cycle is all backwards.

You should die first, get it out of the way.  Then you live in an old age home.  You get kicked out when you're too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work.  You work forty years until you're young enough to enjoy retirement.  You drink alcohol, you party, and you get ready for High School.  You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last 9 months floating...then you finish off as an orgasm!  Amen."

No thanks. I have no desire to ever live my childhood again.

How would you come into being in that universe?

This was the episode "Backwards" from "Red Dwarf", Third Season.
