How far back or forward would you go to change your year of birth? (Can't change the birth place though).
I was wondering if it was worth giving up the 90s for a second roll at the dice.

How far back or forward would you go to change your year of birth? (Can't change the birth place though).
I was wondering if it was worth giving up the 90s for a second roll at the dice.
Guess there was no point for trying a second thread?
I'd go 20 years forward if I could also change my birth sex.
Thousands of years in the past so I'd be dead by now.
I probably should have said "Would you give up the 90s?"
Looks like this thread's a bust. Shame, the last one lasted 2 days and was pretty good.
Like I said in , I would give up the '90s if I could move two decades forward and change my birth sex. Sure, I love the nineties' culture, but it seems now that my life would have been much better if I had been born a girl in the late '00s.
>born a girl in the late '00s.
Something, something, easy mode, something OR something, something, fetish reason, something. Am I right?
God, every time I see one of these type of threads awry I realise that I only have Jow Forums or hope somehow, someday I'll bump into social group with a vacancy for a miserable git.
finally turned 25 and there are only 30+ threads here
It's a moving timeframe.
>just turned 25
Do you expect sympathy? These threads have been going on for 2-3 years and yet you took no heed and failed.
was told to stop browsing here. that's exactly what i did for the past year and yet here i am anyway. i knew things were not going to change much for me back then and i feel the same now.
>was told to stop browsing here.
Yeah, and to attempt to socialise among other things. But you're gonna rationalise how you were "destined" to fail.
Most of us here will admit that a large part of the reason we're here is due to our own inactions.
I have said it once and I say it again: there's always a point. UwU
Stop doing that, you're a man and over 30. It's fucking offputting.
>would I give up the 90s
You'd just be trading in your nostalgia for another decade of nostalgia.
Nonetheless I would miss the nostalgia for all the vidya I've played, growing up with games such as FFVII, MGS, Silent Hill and some of my favourite other games would feel like missing out. But on the other hand it shows how sad and pathetic my memories of the 90s (and early 2000s) really are. Trading in those years would only work if you could retain your memories, otherwise your life would most likely play out in the same manner it did before.
>otherwise your life would most likely play out in the same manner it did before.
I think I got fucked on multiple specific fronts, as if all the forces of the universe or god decided to fuck with me.
I think a decade shift would change things for me.
What do you specifically think would change for you?
Do you think you'd fit the zeitgeist better? The one big difference I can think of is not growing up during a huge recession and economic crisis.
>Do you think you'd fit the zeitgeist better?
Has to be a better fit than in my time and school where I couldn't get people to play mega bomberman with a multitap on the same screen whereas in this era online and LAN gaming is the norm. I was literally the only geek at my school.
I might have flourished. Plus the school I went to was demolished and replaced by a much better school that is well funded with more support.
Always on-line internet and the ease to meet new people through it without the fear of ridicule would have also been plus.
And I can't really emphasis how small-minded and the lack of ambition the people in my area were.
(I know I had my chance in the 00s when the internet and geek scene was just weirdos but I was too isolated from that and never made the effort to seek it outside of my area.)
I would change it to never.
I wouldn't change it, I like the fact that I was part of the last generation in my country and class to play in the streets as a kid, that the internet for me was something I've found out when I was already a teenager and not something I was almost born into. Since I will never have much IRL experience again, at least I have childhood memories. On the other hand, I would not be able to survive adulthood without the internet so the timeline is perfect for my personality as it is.
I would change the birth place though. It sucks to live in a Third World country.
I assume you're in at least somewhat content place in life to say this?

The Millennial experience is getting good things then having them taken away. That's why we're so angry. Here's my experience:
Not trans but I think
early Millennial is worst
>Be born in analog world in 1986
>Childhood has lots of freedom.
>Get used to analog world then have to transition to digital
>Columbine and 9/11 happen in adolescence
>Hear all this cool music
>Cool music goes away later
>Play on old school dangerous but fun playground equipment
>It gets knocked down after elementary is over.
>Carnival fun houses used to have giant spinning hamster wheels, poles and wheels spinning on the floor, skis that move your legs and cool fun stuff.
>Go to fun houses in the 2010s and all of that is gone.
>No SJW culture. Rock was cool. Kids and teens fought and we're not PC
>This culture disappears later on
>People outside and went door to door to meet up with friends and do things all the time.
>This goes away in your 20s
>Graduate high school in good economy. Car culture is still cool. This goes away.
>Graduate college when the recession hits
>Used to live in a laid back culture. >Now live in a culture where every choice is demonized and moralized.
>Life over before it began. No preparation at all. No role models to learn from.
>No one thinks we remember what we do.
>My life is a series of experiencing cool things only to have them go away.
People don't respond to this post because they aren't interested/alive at this point. Robots have a lot of health problems and don't live past 30-40
Why are you posting Jack "Ham King" Kelheller in this ITT thread?
Miserable people live longer than they want to.
