Thats Honestly A Really Good Theory

that’s honestly a really good theory…

it’s probably just me looking into it wayy more than i should have (probably just slight planning flaw) but that theory works really well

ok but the fact that Shermie was supposed to be born sometime in the 1960s and dipper and mabel were born in 1999

DO YOU REALIZE HOW YOUNG THAT MAKES THEIR GRANDFATHER AND THEIR FATHER-?!?

even if we give the benefit of the doubt and say Shermie was born in 1960 you could say that their dad was born in 1980-2 BUT then that would mean that their dad was a teenager when Dipper and Mabel were born AND that their grandfather was younger than 40

there was probably a moment for each of the batch where they wished it was them instead of tech

but there would never be a moment where tech regretted his decision in the infinity of space and time if it meant even a moment of peace or hope for his siblings

just realizing that logically Shermie HAS to be older than Stan and Ford because we only ever see the baby that is assumed to be Shermie when Stan gets kicked out which would be about 1972 so it’s basically impossible for Shermie to be born in 70 or 71 and then Dipper and Mabel’s dad to be born in the late 80s for them to exist….

even if we go “maybe they had REALLY young parents and grandparents” that would be REALLY young… like born 1971 has a kid at 14 in 1985 and that kid has a kid at 14 in 1999….. (not 100% IMPOSSIBLE but improbable)

so he HAS to be older than Stan and Ford which would mean there’s ANOTHER sibling?!?!

the possibility that this is just a plot hole is probably VERY high

the fact that Amelia Earhart CANONICALLY crash landed in Gravity Falls and was still never seen again

TITANS BLOOD???? OWL HOUSE REFERENCE?!??!

…i found a VERY MINUIT plot hole….

also very very minor spoiler for the book of bill

ok so Ford gets sucked into the portal in 1982 (as seen on the calendar in one of the episodes)

in The Book of Bill he talks about the song “Sweet Dreams” by Eurythmics playing…..

that song didn’t come out till January of 1983
