How long does it usually take before someone can go from not playing guitar to being able to play simple tabs? I'm thinking about learning but I'm afraid it might just be too late to start.

o and do I need to use a pick or just my thumb? I know I sound like an idiot, but seriously I know nothing about this.

both, eventually you'll want to play stuff that might be too complex to play with just a pick, but use a pick to begin with.

I was asking about pedals and distortion for myself...
My future's so bright I gotta wear shades.

I miss my old signature.

as far as practicing goes, dont be to hard core about it in the begining or else you get mad frusterated. just pick it up when you have the urge to.
