If you had a time machine...

What would you use it for and why?






(Since this could get philosophical, and the answers could be discussed more seriously, I put this in the Tavern. Plus, it'd be a nice thing for posters to look back on, 20 years from now. In the VW, it'd get ****-canned eventually.)

Go back in time to the invention of the first time machine and steal it from its creator, giving me a monopoly on time machines.

I'd go back in time and murder the sheet out of the snow who snowed my life up. Slowly. Then I'd go back and do it again.

well, this thread took off.



with a time machine, i'd have so many possiblities. it would be difficult, not going back and taking care of business when i was a mostly defenseless kid. that would be the hardest part, i think. to know that slight changes could have drastic, and potentially unwanted effects in the future...

i would probably keep playing around with things until i got them to be ideal in the future, anyway. that would take a milennia, though. i'd want to have everyone that i have in my life now, but i'd try to fix what went wrong in their pasts, as well. i would be busy for eternity, i think.

yeah, the infinite number of possibilites... i would be busy for eternity. but i would be the FARTHEST i could ever be, from being bored.

Philosophically traveling in time would give you God stature.

Xerox family is a petty choice, stop a second and consider: you can travel back where ALL started, get to know how ALL was done, from what and why, then have your footprint on the entire evolution. Not only humans, but at cosmical level.

Creepy.

Except you'd probably die because of your body not being suitable for the conditions you're exposed to. Like -273 C and extreme radiations.

Yep, makes sense. You can travel in time but didn't yet invent the clothes for extreme conditions.

i would use it to see the end of the world and maybe go kill a T-Rex by going back in time... umm. let's see... maybe like 86593 years would do. but you guys forgot something, would assured you that going back in time wouldn't restore your body to it's past, so if you go that much deep, you'd simply degenerate.

We have creationists saying world is 4000 yo, but the heryists saying T-rex lived 85k years ago are closer to the reality.

Still...

Religion... Always there to cause ignorance.

I remember when I was a kid and was wondering who was the first man. Was it Adam or the caveman Bork? Later I learned that neither of those two were true.
So, yeah, I wanna go to the past and stop all religions I come across, bring technology to the ancient civilizations, thus giving humans more time to find means of deep space travel before a massive disaster occurs and destroys the Earth.

Time travel isn't for mere mortals, think about the chaos theory: maybe a single stone moved in the paleolithic will have an impact so great it could change the course of history. Now think about going around and messing with history... time travel can have apocalyptic results. Giving nukes to some monkeys

"I'm gonna give advanced technology to cavemen!" attempts are going to end like this:

Learn your history ,kiddo, religion has been the best keeper of knowledge for centuries, let's not forget about being a peacekeeper and an awesome form of crowd control against anarchy and violent movements. Yes, there were some corrupt elements inside the Church, but everything has its dark side. And don't pull the crusade card... Crusades were a retaliation to the Caliphate's Invasion of South Iberia, Mediterranean Sea and 3/4 of the Byzantine Empire.

That video single-handedly proves evolution. There are more apes in it that can use an AK-47 than one.

Good choice Stormy.  Yes a female child born into a mountainous Afghan tribe.  That should open his eyes a little.

I would totally go back, and play the Stock Exchange.  Make Momma some trillions and then spend my time basking in the Mediterranean sunshine on my super yacht, with a massive brood of yapping Pomeranian pooches, sipping cocktails until I am wasted.

Yeah that is not a boring way ..... endless shopping, fashion shows, designer purses, michelin star restaurants with my puppies all sitting at the table eating cordon bleu doggie cuisine

Endless, endless shoes.  Jet set lifestyle.  If that is boring, then just sign me up .... I will save people from boredom.  Just, just put my name down there ... yes sign dammit!!!!
