I was recently discussing hypothetical scenarios with people. sort of philosophical decisions but fun that they're not like boring or convoluted or whatever but sort of sharing something about your outlook on life. I wanted to see peoples thoughts including opinions on oral sex, and any questions you may have as well  Let's say you had a time travel device, and you either had the option of taking inanimate objects fitting in a 5x5x5 m volume back with you to live at any point anywhere in time, or to visit any point in time and bring the same volume back with you (and you can't for instance bring a camera back to take pictures, but you can get or make one from materials at that time, and if you want to bring items back you can get whatever you want as long as it fits) where would you go? Would you take items back and live out at a different time with the advantages the items bring, or would you bring items to reveal lost secrets from the past or get rich or bring items that you would love to own?

And anybody trying to time travel to prevent this post would create a paradox that would destroy whatever universe they live in

dog buttz posted:Let's say the past thousand generations of women in your family have been really hot and horny in their twenties, and you have a time travel device. How far back would you have to go before you were comfortable loving one of them? Great grandma? Great Grandma's Great Grandma? grandma? That's a good hypothetical, I don't think I could ever gently caress somebody in my direct lineage but like 30th cousin maybe? And you can bring back whatever you want no need to bring a gun to steal it for the hypothetical. What artifacts would you take, what would you do with them?

I'd bring a big old box of the love of Jesus Christ and spread it to everybody's heart, personally :3

For a way to get money and influence and bitches id go back with a super fly bulletproof car and other protective gear and like rent it out to like rappers and other high profile assassination victims (id also bring clippings and vhses of news reports about their murders and other events to show I didn't fabricate it or was trying to extort them)Dr. Josef Mengele posted:Time traveling to post this: An interesting train of thought. You could go back and find the first internet discussion board and make this, or any other comment you would like the first reply in human history. Or you could pull like a John Titor

CJacobs posted:The thing is, have you ever heard of a person claiming to be a time traveler that wasn't immediately locked up in the loony bin? If you do go back in time, you can't tell anybody where/when you are actually from because they won't believe you. Even if you bring a smartphone or something, it will be taken away from you and destroyed and you'll be locked up forever. Even if you go back to like, 2010 or something. And what fun can you really have if people won't accept you as their god?? That's a part to be considered of course, if you choose to live in the past you'll need to be careful about how you expose your knowledge, and maybe need to find the more superstitious or open minded contacts (you can rob them blind or just soak in the experience per the rules if you just want to visit but like you won't be harassed and you can't leave anything or cause influence except by making the objects disappear)

plain blue jacket posted:I got to hold a wiener dog like s baby today because it was tired while on a walk. Explain that with your science Some mysteries are meant to remain as such, the world needs to have at least a little magic in it. Also Quantum Leap and retards are awesome. Hmm that makes me think... If you were stuck in a quantum leap situation but you had to choose between them would you take one where you had to resolve major problems in the life of destitute people, or would you take one where you were constantly dropped in the life of some high society people and without knowing any of the social codes and dynamics or customs you had to like resolve some business or social problem.

Egbert Souse posted:My father died when I was young, so I'd go back in time and hang out with him to make up for the time I didn't get to spend with him. That's a very good and beautiful response. Would you want to bring anything back with you maybe some good food to share or a nice car to cruise around in? It would be interesting how a relationship would be shaped knowing when it would end (would you tell him? Not to get too personal...I think I would tell someone I loved unless it would trip them up ) or would you just keep yourself as a random stranger in passing?
