Poll: Changing the Past

[NeedAUserName]

I was watching Knocked Up recently and it got me thinking, if I could jump in Doc Brown's Delorean and go back in time to change something about my past what would it be?

{Insert cool thinking pose here}

Mine would be not wasting my time/money on Runescape and Yu-Gi-Oh cards, as well frankly Runescape I haven't been on for ages and Yu-Gi-Oh cards, well I got mugged and most got taken.

I would not mess with the past, with all the horror in days gone by and the horrid state of the world, it won't change. People will still kill each other for little logical reason, and violating the natural order of time would most likely make it worse.

I meant it in a selfish way. Not for the good of the world.

In that case, go back and learn everything their is to know about the one I feel deeply for, so that I might connect better with that individual. (What pole?)
Spelling fail poll.

Get a list of all race winners, boxing matches and lottery numbers go back and make myself crazy rich.

Also invest heavily in oil, it'd make me insanely rich.

When it comes to the question of whether or not I would change the past I simply state my little old saying: "If I could go back and change things, I wouldn't as everything else there after would be a lie". Whats done is done and changing things like horrid events would mean we would never learn from our mistakes.

You mean aside from telling my parents to invest in Google and Yahoo? Well, I can't be the only one that would mess with my past self.

Future Me: Dude, I'm not kidding. Use that can of spray paint. I swear to God the cops never find out who does it.

Past Me:...Ok.

I'm sure after a while I could laugh at what a dick I was to myself.
