I began writing myself into a corner with all the 'what ifs' that doing everything in reverse entails.
I decided to stop while I was ahead.
There are many questions left to answer, but its more fun if you leave them to your imagination.

This is the discussion related to the wiki page SCP-202.
When I reached the expunged data, I had been reading it straight through and was drawing a blank on what was supposed to be expunged. Then I paused, thought for a second, stared blankly, and had an "ewwwwwwwwwwwww" moment.
Comedy Central had an episode about that…
"He is rather good at Rubik's cubes" — hilarious!
Oh man, this is a great concept for an SCP. Fritzwillie, I started brainstorming about how things go in reverse and got a headache. Then I thought just how big of a mindf*ck it would be for 202 to play Braid.
Reminds me a little of Piers Anthony's Incarnations of Immortality series. The Incarnation of Time had to rewind things, but everyone near him was aware of the effect. The [DATA EXPUNGED] part was suggested, with the poor victim screaming while it happened.
I like this take on it, definitely.
There's actually a Phillip K. Dick book called Counter-Clock World in which everyone does this, except they all talk normally to one another (though they may just be able to understand everyone else doing the same backwards-talk they are).
(account deleted)There was a sketch by Voskovec and Werich two WWII-era and after Czechoslovak comedians, going on about how before 0 AD time went backwards and people lived in reverse. Pretty much the reason I can't take this SCP seriously.
I've got a theory of this guy. What if there's a sort of invisible bubble, a field if you will around the man that processes all information be it physical or non physical and begins to form the information out of view. This information is then rewinded. Such as eating food, when the bubble notices the food it produces the said food inside of 202's stomach and begins to rewind it and so on. Probably ridiculous sounding to all of you. +1 for the SCP, btw.
