You wake up in 1995 (no Internet, no mobiles)

[wiggins]

No. I’m male. I can’t get pregnant. But if you can I can inseminate you? As long as you’re female white and pretty fuckable. Otherwise? Fuck you

I'm sorry. When I read "Hey you can’t see me but Jasmin was kicking", I immediatly thought the happy day was due soon...

I do apologise for misgendering you.

... And wins the lottery so they have enough money to buy their perfect house.

What is the perfect house to you?

 

[Sundaylsx]

What's the first thing you do?

1. Call my father a cunt, I was too young and scared back then.

2. Call all my grandparents

3. Pack my BMX in and put it in storage (which my mother threw away in 1996)

What did your father do, pr not do to be called a cunt?

 

[wiggins]

What is the perfect house to you?

Wood heaters, big shed, small house but large enough to have a room for my library.

Preferably with a view in a quiet neibour hood in the country somewhere. Rural.

Big enough block to park my boat and a decent garden for growing vegies.

Kind of like where I live now...

I'm not at all into trophy houses. I have no idea why rich people seem to feel the need for masnions which require cleaning crews and maintance people to service and butlers and maids to run. It's madness. Who needs that level of complexity?

that's nice! "kind of like where i live now", haha. Do you cut your own grass (lawn, not pot), or do you let it run wild and free?

 

[Gman2011]

I’d hug my childhood pets as long as I could.

 

[Harumph]

In addition to those financial steps taken toward my own independent wealth for today, and since most everyone in my family has died since 1995, I'd tell them all when their time was up to see whether that would change their futures and fortunes you know, if any of that actually mattered at all. They wouldn't have listened anyway. None of them ever did.

I mow. I live on an acre and use a ride on mower.

I had a Commodore Vic20 in my room in 1983...no internet?...PFFFT! (it was a dial up BBS or the NCP dial-up gateway at school).
BY 1995:
I was running TWO band houses in n.e. Florida. (Cottonmouth, The Marauders) The pa was an 18kw tri-amped Mackie/Urei/EAW/JBL system (no Flying Vertec arrays yet)
I had JUST met my future fiancé, Debby (who was in a band named "Mach 5"), but still hadn't gone on the first date. COMPLETELY forgetting about the qwnt, Tammy, at CBS music!!!
Had like >25 enterprise builds (PC/servers/LAN/db) for CSX/Comcast/AIG, etc., at J&S a/v (we were the only office nationally REQUIRED to wear suits/ties-that SUCKED)
Successfully "transitioned" an interior design company from drawings and analog TO digital/CAD-CAM (she was a German girl-VERY fun) My "first" time.
My little brother(now at Dell enterprise in Va) and his buds installed the main switch nodes in our county, just up the street, allowing cable modems deployment.
GOOD times!!! (and Debby, I've been good-please wait at the backstage door in Heaven, for me, like we planned)

The internet was very much alive and well in 1995 if you possessed the technical know-how required to use it. It was slow, but it was there.

When I wake up in 1995 am I the version of me that existed in 1995 or am I present-day me sent back to 1995 where I can give myself some winning lottery ticket numbers? Like, an entire year's worth of lottery numbers?

I had internet in 1993. A lot of people seem to think the internet just appeared in 2004 or something lol.

Jasmin or live Jasmin is live chat with naked chicks. You pay they do whatever

 

[dwdays]

I was pulling it to internet porn in 1995.

so sweet...don't squeeze them to death

 

[VERMICIDESOUND]

I would take a time machine back to now. If I had to do it all over again I would have started drugs and drinking way sooner in life and took things way less seriously, and probably would have died by now if I had to do it over again.

Maybe I could pull it off though. I was really nihilistic and tortured as an adolescent, I found spirituality later in life, maybe some of that wisdom would protect me from bad choices

I probably would have been more violent tbh. A lot of kids in school needed to be punched in the face where I went and I never did because I thought it was true that it would negatively effect your future 😂 Turns out that was bullshit, could have had it all expunged.

 

[Private Joker]

Buy all the Microsoft stock I can get my hands on...

Thank you for that clarification.

 

[Aldebaran]

Buy all the APPLE stock that I could. $5000 invested in January 1995 would be worth nearly $3 million today.

 

[steroidtulip]

Well I was 25 then and was working as a registered nurse in a hospital that had like 5 other blokes there ; two of them where gay . I'll let you work out what I was doing . And no I wasn't bumming the two blokes before you say it lol

 

[machopants]

If only to get rid of Nelson Mandela, I certainly would take the offer
