time travel

Post by Antimeasure »

So what would you do if you suddently woke up one morning on the pavement somewhere in the town you are now in - but the year is 1984?

and yes, you do explode in a giant fireball if you alter the history so that you wouldn't be born, etc.

but telling the goverment about stuff like who really was 'Deeptroath' and the coming 9/11 attack wont make you explode, more likely they will put you in a mental institution..

Tell you what i would do, i would go fuck your mothers so you had to call me dad :) - but then, id probably hit your moma in the stomach so you didnt got to live at all.

Anyhow, what? what would you do?
I like my women as i like my whiskey. Twelve years old and mixed up with coke.

I'd dress in a funny way and dance to disco music.

I would do drugs and then go to new wave and new romance music joints to score some futuristic chicks.

Greater suffering is always something to aspire to.

As for what I would do - I would travel. :drunk:

I'd have a really hard time explaining to comrade Husák what that gesture I made at him as he was greeting the crowd from the tribune on Václavské náměstí on the First of May means.

If I appeared without anything, I'd first try to survive. Then use my 2005 "powers" to get money and build an empire and have fun with all the things I missed in the 80's and do good before the bad happens.

I'd also go into politics later with my knowledge of the future.

I'd invest deeply in Microsoft with a fund that would be inherited by me in around August 2005 (after marriage, and such, as not to interrupt the good parts of my life leading up to the point where I also become rich). Nuff Said.

Please list 'all modern discoveries', and how you would claim each one as your own. :drunk:

Yes, because you can't just go "HEY EVERYONE I'VE INVENTED VIAGRA" (the only notable invention of the past 20 years) because then you actually have to produce the Viagra and you have no goddamn clue what's in Viagra or how it works. You might get the patents that explain how to make Viagra, but then you wouldn't know to get the patents today for your unexpected trip tomorrow, and besides, the patent wouldn't make sense to you.

Therefore, you are clearly doomed.

I would invest in Microsoft and Google and all other companies that survived dot-bust, then spend the rest of the 90's and the 00's enjoying my ill-gained riches.

Oh, and I would probably buy a truckload of guns that are now collector's pieces cause they aren't being made anymore, so that I can sell them later at 400% markup.

I would exploit the future with what I know and end up finding that I can't take advantage of anything because if i try to pursued it then it will turn to something else and I will have a thousand cocks invested in Microsoft condoms.

Well I was born in 1985, so I don't even remember it at all.
