If You Could Time Travel...

Except that in the latter case it would probably not be stored in area 51 or hidden by YOUR government! Maybe iranians are experimenting with it

 

Fast forward through every unpleasant sensation.

 

Just for the sake of it and to have fun, I'd go back to the mid-90's. It was the bomb in Montreal back then, dirt cheap rents, dank and cheap drugs, blooming rave scene, vivid local musical scene overflowing with interesting bands and plenty of jobs that paid you enough to live well. Plus there wasn't so many cops and CCTV's all over the place, and it was possible to cross the US border without any passport and all that shit.

 

The 90's were the shit to grow up in here (netherlands) as well, but I already did just that. For people born in the 90's or later I would regard it as a valid choice Although I don't think it could be better experienced than the way I have: as a kid and adolescent.

 

I was a teenager also at the time but couldn't really enjoy myself back then, at least really not as much as I wished I could. That'd be better if I had the possibility to come back as an adult, then I could fully experience all the 90's had to offer.

 

I'd travel to 1994 to the night I was conceived and replace my current father's sperm with Dolph Lundgren's.

 

i hope you were an artificial insemination, or that would be real awkward to pull off.

 

I'd travel back in time and show my iPad to steve wozniak and we'd reverse engineer that thing and build the iPad .. he'd ask me where it came from and i'd say, idk the future, let's see what kinda code we can write for it

 

I was stunned to find out he had a registered IQ of 160

^ Now, he does not do anything for me...at least not in that photo....exactly what I was speaking of...beauty being in the eye of each beholder.

60's probably Monterey Pop Festival to see Hendrix and others who played there, also experience the vibe of the times.

Ancient Greece as I'm kinda fascinated by that culture and it seems to have had influence on our own.

 

the vibe of the late 60s, early 70s certainly DID beat the hell out of anything we've experienced since raygun.

2250 ought to pretty much insure being past the big implosion when the human species very nearly bit the big one, or maybe did, and its furry sapiens building their new and better world.

(and the whole global warming, dumping of excessive carbon into the atmosphere, should be stabilized and in the past by then too. mostly because of humans being mostly gone, along with fossil fuel resources easy enough for remaining populations to extract)

more ruins to explore then people to explore them, with nature green and healthy everywhere, and maybe not all of technology and science lost either, and/or in the process of being rediscovered/rebuilt.

i like that. i'd love to be living then. from what i can see of it from here.

of course we can't see that problems and challenges that day will face until we get there. those i have no doubt will always exist in some form.

 

Well one things for sure; The Iranians won't need a time machine to be sent back into the Stone Age if they continue their unrestrained aggression


Hotwater

 

sorry to disabuse you: iran may be a total ass toward gays, followers of baha'u'llah, and the female half of its population, but the unrestrained aggression is mostly on the part of western oil interests, their allies and proxies, and the very large blow back against them.

 

You seem to be missing the point; this thread is about TIME, and it wouldn't take much prodding on the part of the U.S. for Israel to send Iran back to Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble

Hotwater

 

I think you are focussing a little bit too much on the stone age there, hotwater. They could use it to try and reinstall the persian empire!

 

you're right. i'm totally missing your point entirely. or what the comment i was responding to had to do with travel through time either.

 

Sounds like someone is caught in a temporal causality loop

i did actually suffer from chronic hysterisis until i reversed the polarity of the neutron flow. but that was many years ago.
