If i could bring a Submachine-gun:

Medieval England


If i couldn't bring anything:

Why not try 70s and ride in these original America made steel body cars?

The 70s is the time of the Arab Oil Embargo.

This destroyed the American Muscle Car.

50s and 60s is where it's at for muscle cars and big behemoth land cruisers.

I've been watching all of Marlene Dietrich's movies from the 1930's. I am in love with her.

If I could go back in time I'd treat Lee Priest to a 12 sac of whitney's (white castle) before his tryst with Booty.

Probably late eighties/early nineties.

Assuming I couldn't take an almanac or best-selling book series to plagiarise (Harry Potter, 50 Shades of Gray) back with me, I'd still sell the family estates (combined worth:  ~300-400k), move into a small condo, and put the rest of our money and existing stock into Google, MS and Amazon stock as soon as they're on the market.  Periodically, I'd use dividends to buy property I know will be heavily developed in the near future.  Bet big in Vegas on anything for which I know the outcome, like the Douglas-Tyson fight and Duke beating UNLV in the NCAA finals in 91 (?).

Hopefully, as a part of all this, I'd be young again, simply imbued with my current knowledge :)

If you got a chance to make time travel to past only one time.. What do you do?  I don't make it give first reply..  :P

I’d go back in time and slap your whore mother’s mouth and tell her to teach you to read and write in proper English.

   I miss my favorite car from that era. but I can't see shelling out 24 K to try and recapture my youth. I guess you can never go back.

No, he is saying that they wouldn't WANT to travel back in time given the chance.


Things are much easier for them these days.

You'd rather want to be Black today than in 1950s America.

Women have more leeway today than in the 1920s for example.

I don’t think this is true.

Think of how miserable everyone is, who would want to live in modern times.

A good question for white males.  No black person and few females would time travel to the past given the chance.

I'll gladly take that bet because alot of you would be pissed at the writers of your books when you realize you were lied to. Especially in Europe.

A Jogger would rather be able to shoplift and jump and jive in Walmart, Popeyes etc today than being lynched and hanged back in the American South in the 50s


You are correct that it is miserable times these days though


Loved the 70s myself
