you have a time machine, now what?

[Konigballer]

Well, it would be better to put this as, "if you could live another life in another time in history, what would it be?" This is something my friends and I talk about when we are drunk. You usually get some interesting answers and some insight into the person who said them if you remember it the next day. You can name specific people in history you would be if you cant think of anything. Name your top three and maybe why.

Most of mine are always military related but I'll mix it up for variety.

1. WW1 german fighter pilot. Always facinated by air combat and biplanes. Would have liked to fly with the red baron. Germans got to paint their planes with bright colors and personal insignia.

2. Member of a multiplatnum 80's pop/metal band, at the height of their big hair glory, cira '86-'87. Like motley crue, or poison. Touring across the country, loads of money to blow on cars, women, drugs, etc. Being as cheesy glam rock as possible until all the money and fans are gone.

3. Emperor of Rome- at the height of it's power. Having absolute power with the ability to conquer nations and control the fate of millions. Calvin would have picked this one

I'd be a highly esteemed samurai in japan (havent taken the class yet so i dunno what year)

Along a simliar note my friend and I were at an event where everyone had to pick one object they would want to be reicarnated as. Most people said a bong, Brad Pitt's underwear, a thong, bicycle seat, things like that.

I said the Enola Gay, you know, the plane that dropped the first atomic bomb.

You could literally watch the pot heads blow brain cells thinking about that.

I'd go back in time to when my parents were having sex to have me. I'd run into the room, slap my dad on the a$$ and scream "IM YOUR SON FROM THE FUTURE! HAHAHAHAHHA" and run out.

Hmmmmmmmm......well he might not be able to "finish" if you did that which would mean you would never be born!!! Congratulations you just uncreated yourself!!!!

1) a caveman because face it, there is nothing sweeter than walking around with bear skin, a fat club, scratching yourself, and having women adore you .

2) i'd go back to the civil war with an apache helocopter (complete with all the armorments ), and kick the crap out of the rebels BAHAHA! DIE REBEL SCUM!

3) i would go back to aincent rome with a nuke and level those imperialistic b-holes

4) i would go back to december 6th 1941 and tell that retard fdr about the attack (that he already knows about ) and force the navy to be ready.

5) what anyone with a heart would do. go back to september 10th and tell everyone what was up.

6) i would go back to mideval times england, become a chef in the kitchen, and poo in the queen's food!!!!!!!!!

The first thing that came to my mind as well. In a way if you had a time machine it wouldn't be that fun as you would be working your butt off averting all sorts of tragedies that just make no sense. Of course who knows if this would be the "right" thing to do....

[AcemanPB]

I would go back in time and patent the electronic paintball gun before Smart Parts!!

But seriously, I would like to live back in either ancient Rome or ancient Japan...

And buying do this we still may not take the terrorists seriously enough and something even worse could happen.


If I had a time machine i would go forward in history, get a sports almanac, come back and make bets on all the winning teams/horses. I would be rich and have a really big skyscraper.

We unfortunately did.

Perhaps in the future we will be more vigilant.

Yes, unfortunatly, you do.

Okay guys.....we're taking a thread that is intended to for humor and turning it political. No need to do that EVERY time.

As for Marty Mcfly wasn't it Biff that had the big skyscraper, etc?
