It's so predictable that this topic will be about how predictable people are.

It's inevitable people will begin to question whether I'm being serious. It's a foregone conclusion I'll have lost some of you by now because I'm using what are to some people difficult to understand words.

By the time you get to this sentence the previous ones you read are in the past yet the next is in the future. By the time you read this word it's already in the past and you can predict the future by knowing you will be reading this word you currently are right now.

Time, space, it's all energy. What does it amount to?

Hmm, predictable ... I wonder what postdictable would be? And what is before and after dictable anyway?
