Flash Season Finale (spoilers)

So I'm confused...

If Dr. Wells/Eobard Thawne is the one that created the Flash by building the particle accelerator earlier than the original timeline had Star Labs doing it, then how did the Flash still have his powers after Thawne's ancestor killed himself, erasing the man that created the Flash from existence?

Time shenanigans.

It's timey-wimey* stuff.

Somebody else built the particle accelerator.

And Dr. Who is gay.

[CashRules]

Cultured people know that you never abbreviate the Doctor in Doctor Who.

Somebody else built the particle accelerator.

And Dr. Who is gay.

I'm pretty sure he's just asexual.

[CashRules]

Doctor Who isn't a person, it's a question. You just said a question is asexual.

We were talking about Donnie Darko at work and I made a wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey reference and no one high-fived me so I high-fived myself inside.

It's sad that you didn't get a high-five in the U.K. I'm thinking you should probably shoot those people.
