If you could go back to your younger self.... - Page 2

I would run away from home at age 4 and go live with my Dad's parents. I'd have had a much better childhood and maybe not made so many mistakes as an adult.

Boy, and I was weighing whether or not to go back to before I could drive...... you fvcking people are depressing

Ok, I'll play.

I'd go back in time to tell my internet noob self not to look at goatse.

I'd go back about 30 years and shoot "W".

I would go back two years and show my mother a paper about engraftment syndrome. And tell her to give the current doc the heave. Then convince my 'uncle' not to visit a transplant patient if he has a cold. With a shotgun, if necessary.

I liked 30. Not too young, not too old, not too thin, not too fat, and still single.
Would have had unprotected sex w/ the ex to haev my daughter, but not marry him.
And take all my dad's guns away, and be there to listen to him more.

My father has asked me at different times if I could, would I go back to when I was in school (to do things different, I suppose). The answer has always been a resounding "Hell, no!" I wish I'd paid more attention when I was there, but, go back? No way in hell. There is NOTHING in my past I'd care to go through again. NOTHING.

Go way back to when I was little, and take the time to eat. I was a 97 pound weaking, 6 feet tall, so got my ass kicked on a regular basis. If I had been well nourished when I was young, I'd be the one doing the ass kicking. (Plus, I would have gotten laid earlier.)

Hey spudcon,my second year in high school 6 foot 2 got picked on allot . Now I'm lean and mean and they are jealous got to tell ya .....207lbs .....I feel really good about myself. there i said it.

lumberjim · 03-13-2010, 10:06 PM

If I could go back to my self 3 days ago, I would say, "Hey dumbass, don't unplug the fucking Sump pump 2 days before your wet basement gets 4 inches of rain!" ".....you stupid fucker!"

dammit

I would go back to my freshman year of college. Tell myself that there was going to be an economic recession, no jobs for Civil Engineers right now, and that I should plan on graduate school right out of undergrad. Then I would teach myself to be more studious and organized.

I wouldn't consider it a regret, since that choice of not considering grad school early on has helped my grow, but I really wish I could get that growth without the annoyance I am going through now.
