Look, when you’re a fan of sci-fi time travel stories, you just learn to accept that paradoxes are like Schrödinger’s cat. You go in knowing they’re either going to try to explain it away or simply ignore it. Well, I guess there’s actually a third option, when the story mentions paradoxes and then ignores how they work completely. Enter the Terminator franchise.

Their timeline of events basically works out OK. That is, until you watch this Terminator: Genisys parody and realize John Connor keeps throwing Terminators into the past like he’s skipping stones in a giant time lake!
