Hug my mother. I miss her.
Play Conkers Bad Fur Day on N64 with my childhood friends. Even if I’m an older man with my younger version and his friends.
I am very open to weird shit happening thanks to a ghost encounter when I was younger. Oh man I would love to talk to younger version of myself where the memory was fresher, everyday that goes by feels more like it was a dream but I know it wasn’t.
Wait a few years.
LAN parties, $5 personal pizzas and 6 packs of preferred off brand soda, and a garage full of Xbox’s and tvs. Halo with friends is a cherished memory.
I would prevent a couple deaths or at least warn to be cautious driving in bad weather and not to play with guns.
I would also try to prevent the loss of story telling due to all kinds of crazy studio reasons with the Halo video games.
I would try to meet John Prine and Ryo Fukui.
I would possibly not use crystal meth, if there wasn’t a trip to rehab and moving to a new city to start a new life I would’ve never met my wife.
Do I de-age? My answer changes wildly based on if I’m a child or in my 30s.
Not spend so much time online.
Wonder why it looks like 1982 outside.
I can smell the engine fumes in this picture
Save enough money to buy/mine at least 40BTC, then retire early
Don’t loose the 7btc for 7€ each Biy more, even.
It’s disheartening to know what lesson the last 23 years taught you.
What would you do?
Save my wife, father in law, cats, a dog and my home and possessions from a house fire.
I’m deeply sorry to hear you went through that, that’s awful. I guess my question is more asking for clarification on the lessons the comment OP should have learned in the last 23 years
Use the money from the Bitcoin to support a left leaning party.
Sell the Bitcoin to buy off the DNC to force them to stop backing Hilary in 2016.
Someone isn’t a millennial and now made me feel extra old. They really looked at a pic of the 80’s and figured it was close enough.
This is more what 2002 looked like
2002 was 23 years ago, 1989 was 23 years before 2002, so the math checks out
There were 13 years between 1989 and 2002. Math does not check out.
“1989 is a decade closer to 2002 than we are now” is not the message I wanted to get from the internet today 😭
Everyone help with the math!

Coincidentally, in one of the reposts of this pic on Reddit the commenters identified by the billboards that the photo is in fact from 1979.
Ugh, time to commit sudoku
Write a detailed cautionary tale about the future in the form of a cyberpunk novel that either doesn’t gets published or that is largely received as a cool roadmap instead of a warning.
Oh so you wrote “Do not invent the Torment Nexus”.
Tell people the funniest joke about who would become the president of the USA, and that the president would be a lap dog of Russia.
Tell everyone I know to STOP teaching old people how to use the internet!!!
So much this 😭
Figure out when I can buy Bitcoin.
2009, so in 7 years.
Try to short Enron, and then cry because I was a year too late
- Cry that I’ll have to deal with dial up internet again (my first broadband came around mid 2003)
- Be glad that we’re back to Windows XP, not as glad that most linux distros still suck for desktop users
- If it’s May or earlier, buy USD (I live in Brazil and that year the exchange went from 1USD ~= 2,35 in March to 1USD ~= 3,85 in October, due to elections)
- Wait, do I even have any money? Gotta hurry to the bank and see if my account exists and has what I had yesterday (2025)
- Fuck, paper money and coin for nearly everything
Invest in all the right stocks, then use that new Internet cyber-thing to promote the relationship between a famous blowhard conman and world’s biggest child sex trafficker, and get them both thrown in prison, then invent eBay, PayPal, and Reddit.
Kill the man before he raped my brother.
