Stole this from the bodybuilding forums, had some interesting responses, but the question was broad, so I’ll be more specific.
If you had a choice to go back or forward in time for 1 day, where would you go and what one specific thing would you want to observe/find out?
I’d want to go forward in time to see if human has made social contact with extraterrestrial beings. AKA, proof of intelligent life outside of Earth.
I would go back in time, find Jesus, and defecate upon him.
i would go back in time, not have modded my car, so i wouldnt be going insane right now
I would go forward and get tomorrow’s winning lottery numbers for several states.
I would go forward, just until 5 pm though, so i was done with work. I’m tired today :*(

ding, either that or bet on sports
I’d stay right fucking here. Back in time and I’d lose a ton of modern technology comforts, like the internet and Zithromax and 260bhp cars being average. Forward in time and I wouldn’t know up from down given the exponential rate that technology is advancing.

You’d only be going for a single day.
If you couldn’t handle the limited / advanced technology in lieu of all the potential financial benefits, you might have a problem.
This thread reminds me of an episode of The Twilight Zone when a scientist invents a time travel device ( hat. ). If anyone saw it.
Only for a day? Didn’t read that part.
OK. Well 200 years ago women showing ankles was risque. 100 years ago a tank top in the summer would be jaw dropping. Today it’s not uncommon to see girls in the summer in bikini tops and itty bitty shorts walking around in public.
Given the trend towards it being acceptable for women to wear less and less, I’d go forward 100 years and look at all the nekkid chicks. :headbang:
fuck going forward…
we already have the winning lottery numbers from the past…take them back with me, and be the only winner those few times the mega was over $300mil…
going forward to get winning numbers, you can only hope it gets that high again…
while i’m back i think i’ll bet on every sports game that’s taken place as well…lets say, $300 mil AGAINST the bills in the super bowl, 4 times in a row…
Taken from Rochester’s sportbike site (SFX) . Best fuckin’ post yet

I’d go a little farther and take out Bin Laden back when we knew where he was because we were giving him weapons to fight the Soviets in Afghanistan.

Word, glad to see there are some type of humanitarian efforts.
To be honest, I’d probably go to the future and find all the cures for the diseases of the world. I’d sell some of them to put a little cash in my pocket, and others I’d just openly share.
World benefits, I benefit. Sounds good.
One thing about time travel we know is; it will never happen or we would already know about it.
Go back to when the french helped us defeat the british in the american revolution.
Then Go to france with an arsenal of modern weapons and take over france, and change history.
becuase we all know france contributes nothing to the world.
I am sure we would take over more stuff along the way changing history.
We would call France, Texas 2

Yeah, but then you find out the guy waiting to take his place was actually a much better leader. On the new 9/11 they use nukes instead of planes and millions die.
Every see Butterfly Effect?
I’ll still with my lottery plan.
I’d go back in time to see my parents again.

Nice. I would go back and make sure we didn’t sign any treaties with the indians. I mean… seriously. This country was built upon imperialistic ideas… why are we catering to a group of individuals we conquered?
