Would you rather go back in time or ahead of time?

I'd rather go ahead of time

LucyFan · 01-19-2002, 02:29 AM

Excellent Question! This is a hard choice. I would say both, sorry but it is just so hard for me to choose. lol

Well considering that Aliens may be using timetrave................. ERRRRRRRR I really have got to stop talking about Aliens!, Anyway I would probably pick the future........

angel676 · 01-19-2002, 06:11 AM

I myself, would go back in time, so I
could prevent the things that happened
to me back then.

Barnabas1 · 01-19-2002, 10:11 AM

Back in time!

Mossopp · 01-19-2002, 10:43 AM

If I went back in time I'd be tempted to change too many things. And if you change even the smallest thing in your past, you could completely alter the course of your life. Thusly, I'd skip forward in time to see if my life is gonna eventually start getting exciting. If it isn't then I'll go back and monkey around with things in the past and try'n make my future more interesting!

Just curious to hear your answer, but
would that be wrong? You could possibly
make your life and future better!

Yeah, but she said alter. That doesn't nessisarily (sp?!) mean better or worse. Let's just say that you fell off your bike when you were 12. Instead of falling down, and getting a huge scar, you keep going. You run into a truck and die. Which is worse? I know there is a really good thing about this...lemme try to find it

Yeah, you could make your life better, but you run the risk of making it a lot worse. You have to ask yourself if it's worth the risk. Personally, I don't think it is.

I'd go back to 10 dates in the past:
October 15,1951 for I Love Lucy
September 8,1966 for That Girl
September 3?,1958 for Donna Reed Show
March 15,1977 for Three's Company
August 24,1979 for Facts of Life
October 5,2001 for Reba
A Tuesday Night from 1979 for ABC
A Saturday Night from 1976 for CBS
A Thursday Night from 1985 for NBC
Also I'd go back to 1977 for a week.
Just have to see those great shows.

Oh yeah I'd also bring some videotapes.

Be sure to take a VCR too.

Me, I'd most definitely go back. I love the past and would love to experience it firsthand. The present, IMO, isn't all that exciting and the future's probably just as bad, so I'm going BACK!!!!

Beruche · 01-19-2002, 04:30 PM

I would go back in time to the 4th grade the greatest year in my sad life. Then when It was time to go into the 5th grade I can change it and make it better then my whole life wouldn't be ruined. I would hate to go to the future because from what I can see now the future is going to be terrible especially for me.

Max Whittaker · 01-19-2002, 04:46 PM

So hard to choose! In all honesty,I would like unlimited access to the time stream. I'd like to travel to the 23th and 24th century to find out how far we have advanced and where we are. See if we are smarter. Then I would go back to a simpler time. Not quite sure when. In the past, I'd stay out of histories way.

I just could never decide correctly. I'd always wish to be in another point in time.
