People who tell you "But this time it's different!" are rarely to be believed.

while that's been the case before, it really isn't this time. because this time it's different!

I was going to say that this time is different, however, she said it for me. And, well, it wasn't. But now that I get to say this time it's different, well, this time it will indeed be different!

Ah, this "this time it's different" time is different?

Likewise, past performance is no guarantee of future returns, but it's a pretty damned good indicator.
