If you could go back in time and tell yourself one thing...what would it be?

No money related things like lottery numbers, sports bets etc. Just wondering, what bit of advice would you give yourself?

If? Apparently I DID go back in time. I joined the AT forums in 2001, apparently, according to vBAT. Nice :p

Looks like the import issue is still there. I'll probably have to have imported_Crono manually changed, or keep low post count, 2001 version.

Don't go to online forums.


No, really, I can't say. One thing is difficult. If I could have one sentence then I would be probably more satisfied. "Eat right, workout a lot, move to Portland area, pick up dancing, take school very seriously, read up on skepticism, don't ever lower your expectations and wants/needs, and tell every person everything your parents do."

I would try to pass this information on to me and my parents at age 6-7.

But there is no way one thing would ever help me in my life. It would take a huge list to fix shit. Actually if I could convince myself to convince my parents to seek help because they are alcoholics and depressed then yeah, that would probably make my life significantly better. :/ Again, that would have to be at an very early age like 5-7. The sooner the better, but I mean what can you expect a 5-7 year old to do about all of this really? I couldn't fix shit. So, yeah... Kinda pointless to tell myself anything BUT winning lottery numbers.

Don't eat that 10-strip of acid just because the dealer wants you to prove you're not a narc.

1.) Don't buy the townhouse in streamwood.
2.) Don't even think of letting Margaret move in.
