One chance
What just came to mind to me is if you had a time traveling unit and you had one chance to change the past without messing up the future, what would you change.But of course you can't change huge things like the time you lost your two front teeth because that would mess yourself up because you saw yourself. Also it might be impossible to change the past without a big change. But if you had just one chance what would you change?

i would probably not change too much. I think you learn from your mistakes and they make you a better person. But if i could do something that WOULD change the future i would most def. do something about the Holocost. Now what i would do...i dont know. lol
I'd tell adam and eve that the snake is lying, and then put them in some kind of wrestling move, so that they wouldn't eat from the tree. Then again, maybe I'd go into the future, get some kind of disintegrater gun, and if adam and eve got ready to eat the fruit, I'd zap the fruit, so then they'd have nothing to eat, and then maybe they'd think twice about eating it. (this is all said in jest)
very good thought! i like it!
i would go back to the diner last friday night and get the soup instead of the salad. as soon as the waiter walked away i knew i had made a mistake. now i'll never know how good that soup might've been. it will be engraved in my heart forever as "the soup that got away".
i would have waited longer before getting married
whys that? how old are you?
at first, i was going to say, but i don't want 'age' to be an issue. i'm just sayin' i would have waited longer. then i would of knew myself better, and i would have taken more time to know what i wanted in a mate. when i was 21, it was too soon. i should have travelled more, maybe pioneered longer. woulda-shoulda-coulda, it doesn't matter now. but i should've waited longer
its impossible to change the past without changing the future... anything youve done in the past effects the rest of your life. and what others do effect the people around them and their future too.
philosophical!
there's a kewl movie, 'Frequency', about that. this kid's dad died in a fire when he was really young. one night during a lightening storm, while checking out his dad's old ham radio, he ends up talking to his dad like 25 yrs earlier. he warns his dad about the fire, and his dad lives. but then in the present, his mom dies. turns out the night his dad died, his mom was working at the hospital and when she took the phone call about her husband, her patient was given an incorrect dose of medicine, and died...the patient? a serial killer. when dad survived the fire, he showed up at the hospital, right after mom stopped the incorrect dose from being administered. the serial killer survives and continues to kill more nurses... i know it's a bit wordy, but you get the gist, u shouldn't try to change the past. u just might screw it up.
that was a good movie
I'd go to the day after my parents conceived me.. and runn around yelling and pointing " you're my daddy .. you're my daddy" and then start smacking him on the butt .. " i'm from the future.. you're my daddy .. your're my daddy .... i'm from the future! " and then begin a river dance routine .. ending with " hi mommy"
you wacko
Busted! I saw that on comedy Central. Don't you hate it when that happens.
if u think about events in history that u'd like to see differently:
when moses came down from the mountain with the 10 commandments, and the people had made the golden calf, Jehovah said he would destroy them all and make moses a great nation. moses talked Jehovah out of it, but wouldn't THAT have been interesting.
or how about showing up after lot and his daughters escaped sodom and gomorrah... i'd tell lot, 'look out for your daughters; their freaks!!!'
or take lots daughters in marriage so they wouldn't have had to have relations with their father.
yea i NEVER got that.. i must have read that story a BILLION times, and everytime im like... EWWWWW why did they DO that!??!?! There is a buncha jerry springer worthy stuff going on early on in the bible.. crazyness
Yeh, I did the same thing. I kept reading over again to make sure I wasn't missing something. "No....they could't have....wait...What!?"
i dont' know why people thought that was a big deal... i just read it and i was like ok.. well i said " why would they get him drunk.. just ask" i mean.. people slept with their sisters and brothers and everything. it was no big deal back then. it's kinda weird though to be a double daddy.. i'm your daddy and your daddy and your daughters daddy. that would be weird.
there's a trivia question in there...let me see if i can remember it correctly:
name someone in the bible whose father and grandfather are the same...
there's a better way to word that, but that's the gist...
*this isn't meant to be a sick, disgusting comment at all, so don't take it that way*
It was still okay then... the Israelites later were told not to have incest, but at this time I guess they were much closer to perfection. You're making it sound like no one had incest back then, but that's not true at all, because....well...this is going back about a thousand years, but, adam and eve's kids had incest to start the human population. So it wasn't wrong then. (yeah, I agree with "i like-a-da birds", though, except that the children conceived would later become enemy's to the Israelites.)
try 4000 years, at least
no, what I meant was this: 1,000 years before Lot and his daughters did the dirty deed.
sorry, my bad...
speaking of incest...did anyone hear what the Amish are doing now? I heard this on the radio. Because there is so much incest, the genes & blood are to weak, so they are paying....i don't know if i should finish if there are young people reading this..but you get the point.
so they are paying for what ? others to come in and help procreate?
no way.. thats weird!
hahaha, good one ty :)
that's really sick, i didn't realize the Amish were into that
that is just about the funniest thing i heard today!! thanks for making me laugh
can someone drive me out to amish country? they sound like fun-times people
hahaha fun times usa
I wish diana never became friends with the cananites. I always thought she was soo cool. Then she had to go off with the supposed "cool girls" and get into trouble. oh well.. she learned her lesson.
I was always so upset about that, she was my idol, but peer pressure brought her down. DON'T DO DRUGS!
even with such a big family, dinah must have been a lonely girl
I was just wondering...are we talking about web toed chloe? (I'm joking!)
one thing i would change is like 2 years ago we went to disney land and we were in the country of Italy. (ya know they have all those different countries along the stretch.) so this little band started playing like a slow song. my grandpa was like the best person in the world and nobody was dancing and he asked me to dance with him. i was too embrassed and i didn't. then he just asked my grandma to dance with him and they did. but then i felt really ashamed. he died 6 months after that and all i wanted to do was be back there so i could dance with him. i wanna change that
awww.. thats so cute. i had times like that before. then you feel soo horrible but theres nothing you can do. i always just try to learn from things like that and remember for the next time. :)
I would go back to the fourth grade and tell myself that cheating on that spelling quiz (I couldn't remember how to spell Prairie so I looked in my desk at my Little House on the Prairie book) was a big mistake. I regret it to this day (which isn't a horriblie long time or anything..but enough)
Yea same thing for me exept, were were in like ugoslavia and my brother told me to yodel with him I said no and then as soon as I said no lightning hit him in the heart and he died, well acually I dreamt that but, hey arent they related stories of some sort?
I had the same dream, only I was skating and this girl was trying to fight with me and the other person I was with pushed her out of the way. No wait, that wasn't a dream. Hmm.
hey UK, you're hilarious!
I HAD A DREAM, THAT EZABELERS WOULD ALL GET ALONG AND SHARE THERE THERE FREEDOM!!!!!
Their freedom ^.^ (I didn't cheat on the spelling test in which we went over the different forms of there..:)
Hey look what happens if you didn't cheat on the test you wouldn't of corrected me hey!!!
Hey! ho, let's go. Blitzkrieg Bop!
"wouldn't HAVE corrected me hey!!!" :)
hey everyone did you all know that I'm only ten years old!!And I'm not joking!!
Well now, I feel like a big mean bully.
i did! u little punk!
let's hear it for Tristain!
How did you know my REAL name?
Malibu Barbie is stalking you!
don't you feel special now though? was it a secret? someone told me who you were.
i told! i told! haha
if i could change one thing about my past and it wouldnt affect the present i would delete the time i wasted on one of my old boyfriends. i dont know what i was thinking when i dated him. im actually embarrased to say that i dated this person, and if you know him you know why (heehee). i would love to never have to admit that i dated this person, yes it was that bad. the thing is if i never dated him i would never have learned the most important lesson of love- love does not come from what you get out of a relationship, as in material possesions or money, those things cant make you truely happy, happiness and love come from feelings inside and mutual respect and love for eachother. im happy i learned those lessons, but i wish i didnt have to learn them the way i did.
you know i can read ! you didn't have to tell the whole world about me.
:(
hahaha
i guess it was a tough lesson, but at least you can say 'ex-boyfriend' and not something else
I'd probably tell mom to put you up for adoption.
hhahha, awwwwwwww
