2007 since that’s when I began properly using the internet socially. man the SHOOP DA WHOOP memes and image macro threads. fckin nostalgia!!!
Jokes on you. You’ll be suffocating in space, bruh
Go back where about to transition to homosepians and give ourselves a favor by eliminating every single one and give way to lizard people.
Look up last week’s lottery numbers, then head back to last week.
I don’t wanna play the make money game anymore.
Clever, clever 😂

Check the top meme on lemmy of all time.

Go back to 1 minute before they posted that and post it before they do.

I am now the person who posted the highest upvoted meme ever!

The Original OP in the original timeline would be so confused while I stand in the spotlight of GLORY! 😎
Also:
-
I ask c/asklemmy questions in which the OP didn’t answer their own question, right before they conceive the idea of asking that question, in order to see if they would answer their question that they originally posted in the original timeline to what they would answer. Basically use jedi-timetravel tricks to make people ask themselves questions from a different timeline.

I love time-trolling.
Original OP
Wait, what does OP stand for?
OP is Original Poster.
When a post is crossposted, the term OOP is used instead (Original Original Poster), as opposed to the OP of the crosspost.
Its used in r/SubredditDrama or r/BestOfLegalAdvice where the OP would say “I’m not OOP”, in order to to reminds commeters to not direct their rage against OP.
In this context, OOP refers to the user who originally posted it on the original timeline.
Ah okay, thanks for clearing it up! I had no idea that double-original-op was actually a thing, and made me question myself about the meaning of the acronym.

Beginning of high school, drop out, get a job, invest in Microsoft.
To the middle of the carboniferous to check if it is true the hypothesis of the delayed fungal evolution. Forests growing for millions of years and wood not decaying? The mountains of dead trees is something I want to see.
I would go back about 40 years ago and stop my parents from meeting.
If your parents didn’t meet and make you, then it is likely they would have met other people and made other people. Don’t put the curse of your existence off on some other poor sap. Stand up and drink your cup.
No, I’d rather shift the responsibility. There’s nothing in my cup and the cup is crumbling.
I hope your cup gets filled with some Aztec style chocolate in the near future (or modern style, or something else, whatever you like having in a cup)
I’m extremely depressed, but I’m going to give a gold star sticker for accurately knowing chocolate in its original form was consumed as a beverage.

That’s how bad things are. I wouldn’t even go see my beloved Aztecs.
If you can, pick up one afternoon in the week, call someone you know, go outside, in the park or in a pub. It helps to disconnect 🙂
I’m already outside way more than normal. The problem is I’m completely disconnected. I’m an American without employment, I’m skirting my own destruction every day. Don’t have money for the pub and I gave up drinking last year due to doctors’ orders. If I had a choice between doing my life over again or never having existed I’ll take the latter.
@[email protected] (hope I did that right to tag someone else)
Wanted to tag house in on this comment
But to neon: Instead of not having your life, go back in time with the winning lottery numbers, play the lottery number in a state where you don’t have to publicly say who you are, then move and re-create your life with funds to be able to do whatever you want.
You tagged me correctly

Assuming I could go back at some point, ancient Rome in its heyday would be a sight to see. I’d love to go sightseeing to almost any ancient civilization really. At least the ones where I wouldn’t immediately get killed.
To see the original 7 wonders
Nice trip. And why the ‘immediately get killed’?
I guess I was thinking about civilizations that practiced human sacrifice (e.g. in Mesoamerica) and generally civilizations where outsiders were not welcome (e.g. Edo-era Japan).
True… it might not be a good experience… 😅
look different enough? depending on the civilization and time period, believe it or not straight to [the pointy end of the nearest guy’s weapon]
Oh I see…
I’m going to 1450 and giving the natives guns before the Spaniards and the Portuguese arrive.
Without them, anglos probably won’t bother either.
Bring books on crossbow manufacturing. It’s documented that Chichimeca obsidian tipped arrows could pierce through chainmail. Most areas practicing agriculture in the Americas will either have or have access to raw materials required for the manufacturing of crossbows.
I could think of a few historic figures I would love to see be smothered in their cradle, but I think of it’s a one way trip, I’m going to get PDFs with just about everything I would ever need to know about programming in older versions of various languages, burn them to CDs, then return to the early 90s.
My hope would be, assuming I could take the CDs with me, that I could spend time becoming someone known specifically for making good quality software that helps people. Then when people on windows get attached to that software, pull the rig by saying that, maybe around the late 2000s, all my software will now be only available on Linux. I’d hope to create such high quality software, with the help of any other lunatics I could find, that nobody else can compete. A sort of VLC is the best, or at the very least probably the most used, video player around the world sort of software. Get entrenched and then force a shakeup.
Bonus points on me bringing proof I’m from the future, if I could, to ensure I could get people to believe me. Something like my soft modded 3DS. Also, bonus points if I bring CDs with PDFs for future versions of things like Python and other languages and such so we could stay ahead of the curb.
Some real techno elitist type stuff if I had to say so myself.
Assuming it’s a one way trip, I’d probably go to the year 1998, Impersonate my dad, Rescue child me from some shit, Win the lottery, Stop 9/11, and then die and leave my younger self with more money and power than he could reasonably cope with.
That’s quite the plan - sounds like it could be a good movie (I feel like we already have movies like these, but can’t recall any on top of my head).
Congratulations, you stopped the 9/11, but the terrorists escape and they plan for something even worse:
9/11 v2002: Nuclear Boogaloo?
Global UN Patriot Act on Steroids?
There would be a genocide of Muslins in the US, and perhaps Islamaphobic violence towards people who look “Middle-Eastern” all around the world. Aircraft having an emergency and deviating from flight plan with broken radios? It will get shot down immediately. MH17-like incidents will be commonplace around the world.
Calling a bomb threat on the plane just before takeoff. That’ll really confuse things but it’ll get the job done.
Quite a programme. A lot to do
If I was guaranteed to end up back where I am now in my life then I’d go back to my early 20s and head off my drinking.
I put my friends and family especially through a lot and I’d undo that if I could, but not at the expense of all the positives in my life since I’ve been sober.
Are are we applying butterfly effect mechanics here? If yes, the farthest I’ll probably go is the previous 24 hours to have the least impact on the things I don’t want to lose/change. Then I’ll probably bet on the lottery.
butterfly effect mechanics And if there is no butterfly effect mechanics ?
Going back in time creates the butterfly effect mechanics!
