I had a German exchange student tell me that English was the easiest language to learn. “In other languages, you learn about tense and gender you have to use to modify the word, in English you just memorize what to say when, no messing around”.
And let’s be honest, since basically nobody is a great English speaker all the time, the bar for speaking well enough is pretty low.
Um, special relatively just means that the few microseconds it would take for the flash to get to the sandwich shop would be fewer microseconds to The Flash. He would have to be out for an awfully long (distance) run before you would see a difference in the person he left. (One light-nanosecond is about 30 cm, aka 1 foot, so a sandwich shop within a mile would be less than 6,000 feet or 6 microseconds at the speed of light for the person in the at rest frame. If we assume some discernable fraction of c, then we are talking .01c or faster, so max of 600 microseconds, still faster than one frame at 120hz in the ’observer’s’ frame.
That’s assuming he actually travelled at some significant fraction of c, which he does not, at least in the show. All the weird stuff, like time travel, is because of the ‘speed force’, not because of anything Einstein figured out.
What’s that? This is a joke about a rediculous comic book on a sometimes rediculous comic strip and I just took it waaaaay to seriously? Oh, darn, guess I did it again.
