View Full Version : Past or Future?
If you could build a time machine, would you travel back in time, or move forward to the future?
I would go back to the 50s ... love the fashion, love the music, love the cars :D
I think I'd be scared to travel to the future ... might have to speak alien :p
I like this current era, then if i had to choose between those two, i would definitely go to the future to see how the world would change (good or bad), then i could watch Bleach that not even KT got an idea how is it going to be yet :rofl

I would go back to the past so I could make up the mistakes I've made. :3
And the future so I could now what's gonna happen. xD
I'd say both. c:

I'd say the future. But so far into the future that it become the past.

Personally, I'd go into the future to see what it would be like. I would look at the updated technology and political system. And of course, the new Anime/Manga =P Then I would return to the present, because I like it here.

I'd go to the future in about 3-4 years, buy all Bleach manga Volumes, then return in this time and spoil you all with the story, muahahhaa.

Hmm...
If i stay as i am i'd say the future.
If i were givn immortallity I'd go to the world of the Dinosaurs and live through time there till now and onward.
Velius- I was going to write something like that:(
I'd go into the future, because I'm awesome like that:cool:

I'd go into the past, correct the mistakes i'd made in my younger days.
(ignores the little voice insisting i should go into the future to check out Bleach's ending...)

It's hard to say. I would want to go back to the past to correct the mistakes I've made, also to do alot of things that I wished I had done when I was younger. But I also want to go to the future out of curiosity. But knowing the future could be disastrous, what if i find out something bad happened to me or to someone I know? wait, that might be a good thing, then that means i can change it right? but what if i change it, and it alters someone else's life?
and if we go back and change our past, that means our current self wouldn't exist either....*head implodes*
and that's why we shouldn't time travel kids. >_____<
I'd go into the past, to see if certain things really did happen. The future is also an uncertainity, and thus you have a higher chance of being killed while there. Also going into the future where you may exist, could cause a whole thing of parallels and whatnot. I also just find the past more interesting, since the only future I would want to see is my own, and life isn't fun without surprises. That and I think its always possible to change the future, there is no set future in my opinion.

Time travel is some tricky shit. XD I honestly don't think I would even want to mess with it. Too many paradoxes could happen, resutling in God only know what. I'll just stick with wherever I am. Lol.

Past. To fix the worlds mistakes really.
Future is a bit odd because if you mess it up it doesn't really matter because it hasn't happened yet.

Back to the past. Not to change anything, but observe...well, maybe change a little...maybe invent something and steal credit ^_^ (like, a popular musical piece or something...not that I've imagined doing)
Velius, I assume you believe that if time travel were possible, time would be a continuum? (I mean, time keeps recurring...if you went into the past, you would see yourself and not relive the experience) Yah, that would be freaky. I guess we don't know how valuable and important we really are in the scheme of things. (Like "Back to the Future", when Marty's dad punches Biff) XD

I love the 50's too! I want to meet Gene Kelly and get a chance to dance with him. Golden age of musicals!
I wouldn't mind travelling to the future just to see if my baseball team, the NY Mets, have won any more World Series. They still have to beat the Yanks 26 titles. Yeah, my team needs a miracle. XD

Yea, I think the "back to the future" look on timetravel is the most widely accepted version. XD But yea, who knows what could result. It's almost frighting to thing that such a thing could exist. They way it would work, if it ever could exist, it does exist. O.o
If I had a time machine I would go back in time and tell myself to not waste time building a time machine (Yay, Futurama reference)

The future. I want to see where I end up.

I'd go back and change things so that I have a better future than the one I gave myself :p

His theorem wasn't that hard haha x3 gah maths nose!I'd go back and change things so that I have a better future than the one I gave myself :pI now that's a good thought! Like a Ctrl+Z button haha:p it'll be awesome!
I'd want to go back to the past with my future inflated currency to buy all the vintage guitars when they were brand new, along with the amps and all ^^. I'd then go to the future to check out what type of technology they have and everything:p would be so cool <3! I wouldn't want to know what I end up as since there's no such thing as fate or destiny. Wouldn't want to see what my friends end up as either. Let it be a surprise ^^

If there is any thing Hollywood has taught us time travel, it's that using it for profit is the best idea ever. XD There is so many ways you could pull it off and make it look easy. haha.

Bwahaha:p so true! Indeed haha. Just betting, it'd become obvious that you're cheating in someway or control all the teams and matchfixed haha XD.
Imagine stocks! You would only need to do it once, put your life savings into one company and when it spikes the highest in history, you'll have heaps!

Like ebay! XD or Microsoft! :P
But I'd probably go forward in time to see what my future is, then go back in time to make it better...
speedphantom

Haha, no such thing as third time lucky:p
You won't learn your life lessons as well since you can just go back in time though. Then if you think about saving people's lives, the world would be so different. Just imagine you stop all the terrible things from happening.
The whole Back To The Future deal haha, don't disrupt the "space time continuum". XD

Yea probably not the best idea to do that. By going into the future and coming back, you have already changed things, so when you go back and try to change things again, then go forward to see the results, the only thing that will result is the collapse of the universe. XD

I don't exactly hate the present, but a past without manga and anime is just boring.
May want to travel a year or 2 forward just to see the ending of bleach. (-.-)
As of now, it is better for me, to take things slowly and enjoy every second of my life.

XDIndeed haha. Since you put it that way I hope time travel isn't created. You need to learn from the past not rewrite it however somethings would be better changed.I don't exactly hate the present, but a past without manga and anime is just boring.
