I’d probably go back to around 2000 and tell myself that my stupid decisions were going to catch up to me in about 24 years, and they will definitely cost me the relationship I have with only person in this world who had ever genuinely loved me, and that it will drive her mad and she will react in a most brutal and callous way.

I would remind myself that the way I think other people are feeling is almost always wrong, to some degree, and that i should listen better to her about her feelings while I still have a chance to salvage what was once true love.

I would explain that, if I’m not careful, I will misinterpret everything she says about her feelings, and i will lose all my friends and hobbies, one by one, trying to be someone for her that she doesn’t even want.

I would describe the way it feels to be with her, then illustrate the way it will feel when she starts dating other guys while you beg her to please work with you on your relationship, and that it would already be too late no matter how much you want it to work.

I would suggest that, if I decide to proceed while ignoring all my other advice, then I should at least not buy a house with her in 2023 when she is so insistent. Just hold out for one more year before making that mistake.

She wanted to be my forever person, and i didn’t know how to deserve that. We were fucking teenagers when we got together, and neither of us knew how to be. We were just spitballing.

And I’m a fucken dumdum.

I probably wouldn’t listen to me anyway

Alright Alex, my guess is: “When will then be now?”

You lemon-stealing whore!!!

Billy Corrigan always sounds like an entitled 13 year old complaining that he didn’t get as many chicken nuggies as his lil sister, and they gave her two sauces but he only got one… AGAIN!!!

Trauma looks different to everyone I guess.

He who truly knows, knows that he knows not

Or

The more you know, the more you realize you don’t know.

But also, understanding that about yourself doesn’t take more knowledge or intelligence than you currently have. As another user (darkdarkhouse)^ posted, you can understand how the brain works and still not have all the knowledge in the world (hard drive with a map/directory of the hard drive on it).

Change the combination on my luggage!

If you really wanted to have a good time, you could screen-shot everything as is and make that the desktop, then put all the real shortcuts into a folder on the desktop anywhere and watch the fun ensue

Guess I’m beer… but I already knew that

Alright Ferb, I know what are going to do today!

Perhaps that anyone of any religion is not also atheist.

Anyone in any theology believes in only their deity, but doesn’t believe in the hundreds of other recorded, historical deities.

Even the theists are atheists.

This is so not untrue that it is almost not funny enough to be a joke. I still have back problems from those days

I think that’s more of an archipelago

“Now, sir. We’re looking at now, now. What’s happening now is happening… now.”

“What happened to then?”

“We missed it.”

“When?!”

“Just now.”

“When will then… be now?”

“Soon.”

All good friend… it’s too easy to get caught up in the emotions of charged politics

If I had to guess, I’d say that they were talking about how it’s barely affordable just to live in some places (wage slaves), and moving yourself and your family to an entire other state takes substantial time and money. Not to mention the emotional difficulty of leaving everyone and everything you know.

The same argument was made about recently freed slaves who had nowhere to go afterward, and how they should just move if they don’t like the continuing slavery-like treatment where they lived.

It does seem very cold and privileged from that perspective to tell someone to just up and leave, but this specific comparison seems unnecessarily impassioned

You obviously don’t understand just how important that guy is

Scattering the remains has long been a custom
