You are a person who has always been bullied in school.
One day, you finally decide to go to the gym, so you can get some sort of a way of defending yourself.
But you've always been very indecisive, and also - very lazy. You're not even sure if you would have the will to physically strain yourself enough to have any sort of muscular growth before you give up (which is a matter of time).
Luckily, though, a person comes up to you and offers you a pill. He tells you that taking that pill before you train will cause you to forget your training. There are no side effects, and it turns out you can afford it. You buy and take the pill every time you go to the gym.
Do you ever actually train at the gym?
There is no "Big Crunch". The very idea of it is idiotic. If the expansion of the universe, caused by the big bang, is, in fact, what causes the flow of time, how would the big bang happen in the first place, without the universe expanding, thus time not flowing in any particular direction?

You have your training record in gym. People saw you training at the gym.
You trained at that gym.

If taking a pill leading to forgetfulness means that a thing didn't really happen, then there is no ethical qualm with roofies.

I don't remember growing as an infant; it still happened.  I don't remember learning to walk; it still happened.

Yeah, it's a necro.  OTOH, the philosophy board is kinda quiet, so I didn't think it a problem.

Yeah, I don't see this really as a philosophical question.

If taking a pill leading to forgetfulness means that a thing didn't really happen, then there is no ethical qualm with roofies.

I don't remember growing as an infant; it still happened.  I don't remember learning to walk; it still happened. 

That answers it perfectly.
