prelude to a return

so there are these Boost Mobile commercials now that basically say this: what if rapper Fat Joe hadn't had Boost Mobile as a child? what would he have done? well, he would never have become a famous rapper.

I saw another one tonight. it says this: what if the drummer for Blink 182 hadn't had Boost Mobile when he was 9? well, he would never have become a drummer. that's what.

what the fuck? what does that even mean?

answer: time travel.
