The triangular inequality is central in Mathematics. What would happen if we reverse it? We only obtain trivial spaces. However, if we mix it with an order structure, we obtain interesting spaces. We'll present linear antimetrics, prove a "masking theorem", and then look at a corollary which tells us about the "twin paradox" in special relativity; time is antimetric!
