"So, Bob, I was going to attend your son's first birthday party, but my paradox-avoidance ring went off. Apparently, your son had a dog that dug up a sapling. If I go to your son's party, you don't end up buying that exact dog for him, that sapling would end up growing into a tree that falls on my grandmother's house, somehow preventing my birth. Sorry about that, bud."

Perhaps it could work quietly in the background. The act of avoidance could be felt like an inconvenient detour. "Damn red light."
