Just having a few drinks and watching a video of our family reli-bashes that look like they were filmed back in the very early 80's. Just seeing all my uncles and aunties looking so young compared to now. Looks so weird. Seeing all the kids running around. Be cool to go back then and start over or go back and know what you know now and start over.
Fuck that, I'd rather go forward in time. Power up the FTL, jump to end of the galaxy and come back, see what the world looks like.
Basically, this. Going back is pretty unexciting, just "having to start business again, having to start resume and savings again, having to deal with too much christianity at churches and youthgroups and shit."
The only thing really worth going back for is doing the degree again with all my new skills's.
I would go back to when apple was shit. buy a crap ton of shares, sell them when the shares reached their highest, put moneys into high interest saving.. win@life.

Apple were always shit.
They just managed to con stupid people into being their fanboys.
Do you mean go back in time, or rewind time? From the sounds of it, you want to rewind time to when you were young again.
I hated my teenage years and just about every second day in highschool I thought about suicide. There's no fucking way in hell I'd ever want to relive that bullshit.
However I'd love to have a TARDIS, Delorean, magic carpet, whatever and be able to travel through time. I'd go back & see dinosaurs & shit, ancient rome, the leaning tower of pizza before it was leaning, meet Leonardo Da Vinci / Van Gough, etc.
I don't think I'd use it for personal gain because then some butthead named biff would steal my almanac, get rich and make me call him daddy.
no, because no one would believe you (assuming you found out he didn't exist) and now everyone who thinks they'll go to heaven if they're good finds out there's no afterlife so they don't have to be good anymore and everyone starts raping, pillaging and burninating villages.
Whoop I'm pretty sure the rape and pillage and burninating of villages happened as a direct result of differences in religious ideologies causing conflict.
Religion has been the direct cause of more war than anything else.
Christianity vs Islam war for the city of Jerusalem hasn't stopped since it started ages ago. These so called "good" people have been raping, killing and burninating eachother ever since and continue to do so today.

I'm with whoop, I'd go back to check out major events and locations before development. Would love to see Ancient Rome in full swing.
no. just no. This is a time travel thread. no more religion talk. everyone stfu and get back to hypothetically going back in time to fuck your own mums. (or dads if you're a woman).
If I only had one chance it would be a big toss up between the lottery and saving John Lennon's life. It would be cool to have Lennon alive but 100 million dollars would be too sweet to pass up on.
for me, I would love to go back and record some unanswered shit,
like what dino's really looked like, skin, scale, or feathers?
rome is a given,
pompei like a week before it was wiped out.
now, if it was a case of "go back in time and change something" now that is a bigger question. I mean if you could have stopped the fall of rome, how much further would we be ahead?
would you maybe change something further back, like give farmers a better idea of how to manage the land around the nile?
There should be another thread (probably also started by a drunk rev) about what you'd do if you had a time machine and could go back in time to win every lottery ever and end up with like 50 trillion dollars or something.
I would love to believe that we have a future where money is not important (Star trek style) unfortunately I have very little faith in humanity. So I assume money will always be king/god/etc.

After probably your third win they'd just stop running it.
Didn't star trek have replicator rations though? So you can't "buy" anything, but you still only get a certain amount of stuff. Or was that just on the ships? I'm not that much of a fan of the show that I know this stuff inside & out.
What does get me curious though is how doc brown had a suitcase full of money from different times, when he hadn't even been back in time yet.

dude, it's a thread about time travel, just pretend they keep running the lotto no matter what.
1. visit the moment just after the big bang. 2. watch the solar system form 3. dinosaurs! 4. visit awesome moments in human history 5. travel to the year 3000 and become a delivery boy 6. watch the universe end
would be kind of cool to go into space just so you can say you're from the past.
^^ Imagine if you could do a major fast forward, like a million years every minute or something. Imagine sitting above the earth in your time travelling space whojawhatsit and just watching things unfold.
I'd go back and ensure Joe Strummer's heart condition was diagnosed and treated. Long Live one of the greatest songwriters (along with Mick Jones) to have ever lived.
