hemophilia posted:I am 11 or 12 years old and gay, nobody will believe me, so I just live out a hellish repeat of the next decade or so. Wonder how I lived with my year 2000 gateway with AMD Athlon processor, and I will scare the poo poo out of my parents with accurate predictions of the future including 9/11 and a massive personality change + proclivity towards weed. this post brings up a good point because you'd have to live through the next decade and a half of technological progress after getting used to today's tech climate I don't want to go back to the 56k connection my dad retained until 2007 on the plus side, maybe be able to jumpstart things like youtube and it can be you at the zoo instead

Applewhite posted:What if you just used a payphone to call in a bomb threat for those specific flights right before their scheduled takeoff time? They'd be grounded by the airline to be inspected. The terrorists would catch on to the fact that it was only the flights they were planning to hijack that got calls and probably abort the mission. Oooh, nice. Yeah, it would have to be something along these lines in order to have a chance at preventing 9/11 and 9/18 or whenever their backup date would have been.

I would first register on SA so I can get my sweet 01 date and make sure I don't stupidly make a horrible joke that people just don't get and will follow me forever on these boards. Thirdly I would call in a bomb scare into the twin towers on the morning of 9/11 and hope they don't allow people in the building because of that.

That brings up a good point, I'm going to prevent robin williams' suicide somehow. He is a more tragic loss than the sum total of death resulting from 9/11

Your lightly-singed ID is found at the site. Afghanistan is avoided, Iraq happens anyway. TPTB who sent you back in the first place have a toast as the next leg of their plan begins.

Not tell anyone, because who cares about 9/11. Never take up smoking as a teen. Hit the gym. But really kill myself because I am a loser in this reality and any other.

I had a dream about this last night, sorta. I was watching TV and the channel was running 'classic' programming. So the promo was "Coming up, all your favorites from this day, September 6, in 2001!" and I was like, "whoa.." e: Oh, yes…let's see. If this happened to me, I would probably not even realize because I was as messed up on pills and booze I was then as I am now. Seriously has it been 13 years? Where does the time go?

Invest into google and apple, then use the proceeds to assassinate the people who came up with facebook then have an internal debate over weather I should stop the cancer that is facebook from ever happening or start it myself and become even more of an ultra billionaire. Also because I would originally be to young to stop 9/11 and the Iraq/Afganistan war I would instead profit off them by investing in PMC's. Before Putin is reelected president I would move to Russia and use my hundreds of billions of dollars to buy my way to being President of Russian then join the EU/NATO thus ensuring stability in Eastern Europe. Shortly after NATO/EU eclipses the UN in power, and a government controlling the entirety of Europe and NA rises with me elected as Emperor of the West. Then begin Great Crusade to unite all of earth under my rule, shortly there after I invest trillions in NASA and lead humanity to dominion over the galaxy.

Figure a way to preemptively create and wear out the "x just hit the second y" meme in a low key way so when it gets used in context everybody rolls their eyes and scoffs at the lame newscasters trying to use the hip youth talk
