Title: ever wish you lived in a different time?
Post by: orion on February 05, 2015, 05:22:39 PM
Like 1865 American west?  Or Rome in it's glory days? Or in times before things were written down.  Or would you choose the future 1000 years from now?

Hmm......maybe 1950s America. Good Job, drive home in a huge car. Wife had dinner waiting. Pot roast, a scotch or two. Read the paper. Bang wife's big hairy beaver.....good times

Future, only future. 100 years from now, at least. But it's pretty nice to be alive now, so no prob.

Any time before getbig.com

I'm a forum addict and my life has sucked since my first post many moons ago.

Yes, there will be no books written about our lives, (unless we go postal, maybe)

I bet they've solved the ass-whiping probably by then.   

We can fake a moon landing, but we can't keep our hands from shoving paper up our soiled arse daily?  Come on...

Give me a silenced AR-15 and 10,000 rounds of ammo, send me back in time.   I'll make billy the kid famous!

Just spread your ass cheeks with both of your hands (just like before taking a big cock in). Solved.

Cool question!

Would have lived as an adult when the 70's were kicking. No f'in cell phones, way less stress and appreciation for simple things.
(I heart the coke was the shit back then as well, lol...)

Everything is so EXTREME now, I'm slowly being disinterested by basically everything I used to more or less like or is this what they call mid life crisis, lol?

Cell phones are shackles that we wear voluntarily.

makes sense, but to not have one today is sadly almost impossible. When the cost is so affordable as well, there is no resisting those little shit boxes.

Great question.....made me think. NO, that is, unless I could also choose my DNA. I would have died 3 times from pneumonia without antibiotics. I would have died from my colon aneurism. I would have died 2 times from my Melanoma cancer. I would have been crippled from my splintered femur.

I am here typing this thanks to modern medicine.

Yeah, he had to go to serve in Vietnam for 2 years, but the SEX stories from that era are just EPIC EPIC stuff!!!!

People will be living in mud huts.  The world we live in today will be considered legend,  our technology magic.  Men will tell stories around campfires about the time gods walked the earth and flew to the stars on wings of fire

Browse a historic cemetery some time.  One that has graves from the 19Th to early 20Th Century.  You will be amazed at the number of children's graves.  A large number of people under 40 too.

In Houston a good one is the Historic Hollywood Cemetery at the corner of North Main and Interstate 45.

and the golden age of suicide too... white people , mostly atheists, dont reproduce and kill themselves at an alarming but steady rate even if it's mostly ignored by the medias. The planet will be flooded by third worlders led by the surviving, remaning few hyper riches of all origins.

Muslims will access nuclear weapons once they ve replaced atheist whiteys in europe. Then there will probably be a nuclear war between chinese and muslims. Survivors will live underground and evolve to become roswell like creatures.

Wish I was part of the greatest generation the World War II. Democrats then were more conservatives than Republicans of today. They came back from horrific combat that was continuous and went back to work. They created wealth and had values that doesn't exist for the most part today. Now character and integrity hardly exists.

It was entertaining back then. I don't think there's was alot of violence back then , sure fight occured over food and women sometimes just like animals in the wild. I think at that time humans weren't killing each others but mainly fighting against nature and other species. Now we won over nature and started to fight each others.

Every black person should take a trip back to the pre-European slavery Africa.  They'd probably still be a slave. In lieu of time travel they need only buy a plane ticket to present day Africa where much of the continent is like it was a thousand years ago.

For a glimpse of prehistoric times you could visit Africa or if you don't want to travel that far, Detroit.  You won't be able to fight a T-Rex but it's easier than building a time machine.
