Time Crack is stupid

Because the Drone is the really boring one?

ya know honestly if you think about it, the whole time crack- is a crack in the fabric of space-time, and it is following the Doctor's Tardis, not Amy Pond...
I can see it if that is the reason they keep running into it, I mean afterall it is the Tardis itself that is the crack as the ship is exploding in time, and rewriting history as it does so..
but as a spacial anomaly, it does seem kinda silly..but no more silly then a giant green hand reaching out from a planet to grab a starship...LOL

I like the idea that there's a Dalek the other Daleks find monotonous.
The spatial crack though was first discovered by the Doctor inside Amy's home in her bedroom. I do agree with you that it followed the Tardis. The Tardis crashed when it crashed back down to Earth right outside of Earth right after the traumatic event of the Doctor's regeneration. Interesting.
okay, so the time crack was from the Tardis blowing up right.. so weren't there like tons of Tardises blowing up during the time war?? Was the time lock that strong that those tardises didn't also destroy the universe ala a time crack??
For that matter the Doctor's TARDIS was destroyed twice before and the universe didn't end. And of course when Amy's parents were erased by the crack she should've ceased to exist.
Nope. The Tardis exploded on a very specific date (Amy's Wedding Day if you can read the base-code of the Universe). The crack may have followed the Tardis to wherever it visited, because we saw the crack in almost every episode when the Tardis left, or the crack was everywhere and we only saw the ones we did because that's where the story was taking place, or the cracks were following Amy. Any of the 3 are possible.
Amy did not disappear when her parents were "sucked into the crack" because at that time (her wedding day), she was already a time traveler and taken out of the cause/effect loop (parents never existed/Amy never existed).

The crack was everywhere in space and time at the same time the rift in Cardiff existed long before Amy's wedding and it was part of the cracks.
Yeah, I don't recall a specific mention of the Cardiff rift being part of the larger Season 5 crack system. But then I suppose it's not out of the question since only some cracks erased people/things from time. Others just led to different places, like the prison where Prisoner Zero escaped from in "The Eleventh Hour" or the one that sent the space-fish to Italy in "The Vampires of Venice." It's possible, though I suspect unlikely, that the Cardiff rift was a crack of the 2nd variety. Still, you'd think the Doctor would note the similarity. But then, after the Cardiff Hub was blown up in "Children of Earth," I suspect we'll never hear of the Cardiff rift again, regardless.
I'd agree that the time travel logic behind the cracks doesn't make much sense in a sensical way but it has its own sort of twisted internal logic that I'm willing to go along with.

Isn't the Cardiff rift closed now after the events of Children of Earth which would have been just before the Tardis crash?
No, RTD has stated that the rift was one ofthe cracks and with the cracks closed not it's closed as well.
At some point, I think the Doctor should fight an intergalactic drug dealer selling "time crack." It gives you a more literal "trip" than most.
I could have sworn reading an interview where Russell said the rift was closed when Torchwood Hub 3 was destroyed in Children of Earth. When did he say that the rift was part of the time crack?
Some time early in the talk about Torchwood's fourth season he made that statement.
Interesting.
