If you could go back in the time, what would you change about your life and previous decisions?

[Tongio]

Yeah, learning some intruments and fights at an early age is something I perceive as ideal. I only did English classes, which was great.

Yes man it is the age to absorb things and find interests in way that you have more time to practice them(and maybe get realy good and talented), I sadly lost too much time watching tv and being an amoeba.

I also wish I knew to just enjoy life when I was younger, rather than worrying so much about the future, "moving on," getting out of whatever crappy city I lived in at the time, and so on.

At the time I was almost embarrassed by some things, like when I was 19 and I was dating a girl who played french horn in a local civic orchestra. It wasn't the "Big City" even though she was super intelligent (MENSA member, annoyingly) and great to talk with, had a great sense of humor, but I just wanted to move on, get to Chicago and start university, date beautiful women, and so on. Now I really miss that experience. It's hard to believe life was like that, that it was easy to make friends and meet interesting people, even in small nowhere-cities; I used to watch her perform in the public square in summer. I would love to do something like that again, have friends like that, an environment like that. Now everyone's too afraid to be raped or stabbed or even just offended to get to know people, for people to hang out in public and enjoy themselves, care free. Oh, well.

I would definitely change how I was as a teenager, I would have chosen to be more assertive and less trusting and I would have looked at things more from a realistic perspective instead of an optimistic perspective. I also would worked on my appearance more at a younger age because I've come to realize that looks matter a lot more than society tells you, I think I would have been treated better and had more career/social opportunities if I looked better. I would have also chosen to delay attending college until I was sure it was a realistic financial decision, and I would have gotten revenge on some of my nasty old friends. I would have also chosen to go to University in Europe if it was possible.

I would avoid to change anything because then I wouldn't be the person I am now. Everything happened for a reason.

That's easy. I would bribe the maternity ward nurse to strangle me in my crib.

You're not El Chapo to bribe them enough. Too much of a risk.

I wish I had bought a shit load of bitcoins in 2010. I became aware of it when it was just around a dollar. It is without question a pyramid scheme, but if I had risked a grand, I'd be big pimpin' now.

It was pitch black humor. Canadian politicians (men) will now wear pink high heels for some kind of statement or stunt, and they just ruined a statue by having a baby suck on a *man's* breast, so who wants to live in a world like that?

Well, obviously. :-)

It's pretty sick, but whatever I say has already been said thousands of times before in here, either by me or someone other.

Pizza is still worth 270M$ as of today, and 2 times that not long ago.


There was a golden window to get very very rich with bitcoins and the likes. I think we are past it, massive dumps still worked until recently like during covid if you really knew what you were doing but those opportunities are getting far and few now.

Unless we go through another huge crisis. Opportunity/crisis, same thing, even the same word in some languages. I would still buy some right now if i didn't have any.
