Wonder why it looks like 1982 outside.

I can smell the engine fumes in this picture

Hug my mother. I miss her.

Tell everyone I know to STOP teaching old people how to use the internet!!!

So much this 😭

Someone isn't a millennial and now made me feel extra old. They really looked at a pic of the 80's and figured it was close enough.

This is more what 2002 looked like
2002 was 23 years ago, 1989 was 23 years before 2002, so the math checks out
- There were 13 years between 1989 and 2002. Math does not check out.
- Everyone help with the math!

Save enough money to buy/mine at least 40BTC, then retire early

It's disheartening to know what lesson the last 23 years taught you.
- Use the money from the Bitcoin to support a left leaning party.
- What would you do?
Don't loose the 7btc for 7€ each Biy more, even.

Do I de-age? My answer changes wildly based on if I'm a child or in my 30s.

Write a detailed cautionary tale about the future in the form of a cyberpunk novel that either doesn't gets published or that is largely received as a cool roadmap instead of a warning.

Oh so you wrote "Do not invent the Torment Nexus".

Play Conkers Bad Fur Day on N64 with my childhood friends. Even if I’m an older man with my younger version and his friends.

I am very open to weird shit happening thanks to a ghost encounter when I was younger. Oh man I would love to talk to younger version of myself where the memory was fresher, everyday that goes by feels more like it was a dream but I know it wasn’t.

Wait a few years.

LAN parties, $5 personal pizzas and 6 packs of preferred off brand soda, and a garage full of Xbox’s and tvs. Halo with friends is a cherished memory.

I would prevent a couple deaths or at least warn to be cautious driving in bad weather and not to play with guns.

I would also try to prevent the loss of story telling due to all kinds of crazy studio reasons with the Halo video games.

I would try to meet John Prine and Ryo Fukui.

I would possibly not use crystal meth, if there wasn’t a trip to rehab and moving to a new city to start a new life I would’ve never met my wife.

Tell people the funniest joke about who would become the president of the USA, and that the president would be a lap dog of Russia.

Figure out when I can buy Bitcoin.

2009, so in 7 years.

Kill the man before he raped my brother.

Cry that I'll have to deal with dial up internet again (my first broadband came around mid 2003)
Be glad that we're back to Windows XP, not as glad that most linux distros still suck for desktop users
If it's May or earlier, buy USD (I live in Brazil and that year the exchange went from 1USD ~= 2,35 in March to 1USD ~= 3,85 in October, due to elections)
Wait, do I even have any money? Gotta hurry to the bank and see if my account exists and has what I had yesterday (2025)
Fuck, paper money and coin for nearly everything

Invest in all the right stocks, then use that new Internet cyber-thing to promote the relationship between a famous blowhard conman and world's biggest child sex trafficker, and get them both thrown in prison, then invent eBay, PayPal, and Reddit.

Not spend so much time online.

Drop out of the highschool I'm going to and enroll in the next closest one. Don't let any adult try to convince me otherwise. I never had a chance at my old shithole.

Try to short Enron, and then cry because I was a year too late

Attend live sets of dj Heather, silicone soul, slacker, Lemon8, Colette, Kerri Chandler, Frankie knuckles, David Alvarado, Paolo Mojo, Kevin Yost, Armin van Burren, Dj Shah, Aly &fi fila, Ferry Corsten and Paul van Dyk. I for sure miss some, but I got most of them.

Buy amazon stock.

Stop 9/11. Oh, wait. Uh... Damn. Try to stop this? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2002_Tampa_Cessna_172_crash wait that was January, probably not in January of 2002. Why did some crash a Cesna into a tower? Is that like a baby 9/11? Oh, the terrorist was inspired by 9/11. Shit, how many 9/11 copycats have their been?

How about shooting trump.

Immediately invest in CIT group, Netflix, dicks sporting goods and gamestop. Then I'd save the earnings for a few years and invest it in bitcoin. Id also spend more time with my parents.

If you were to really wake up in 2002 and tell people about the crazy shit in the 2020s, they'd probably think you're insane or high on drugs

That's exactly what I was doing in 2002, and exactly what they thought

Be too young to actually enjoy all the fun adult stuff, if I'm not going back at my current age.

Otherwise, I would absolutely love to find a certain person to ensure the 7th generation consoles do not have motion controls to ensure the 3rd Sonic Riders game wouldn't be a flop for that reason.
