old man emu Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 What would you do if you had a Time Machine? (Just remember that this thread is in the Funnies section). If I had a Time Machine, I would go back to the first bloke who exhibited male pattern baldness, and castrate him. OME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomadpete Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I'd go back to the first origin of the first universe. Just to watch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty_d Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I'd go back to the first origin of the first universe. Just to watch it. That'd be a good one. I'd nip over to Britain at the end of WWII and pay cash for a dozen Spitfires, and a block of land in Utah in my grandfather's name to bury them in. Is there room in the time machine for the equipment to shrink wrap them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bexrbetter Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I would take just a little longer with all those girls. I'd go back to the first origin of the first universe. Just to watch it. Just turn an older valve TV off and stare at the white dot in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

facthunter Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Yes Merlins make a nice SOUND. People tell me they should have kept the BSA Bantam they sold for $5. Being smart in retrospect isn't that promising if you wish to be different. IF everyone kept all this stuff it wouldn't be rare and valuable, either.

rgmwa Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Just turn an older valve TV off and stare at the white dot in the middle. You've pushed the lever the wrong way Bex. That would be the end of the universe, not the origin. rgmwa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bexrbetter Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 That would be the end of the universe, not the origin. Well that's been captured on film in that stunning documentary, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I like your presumption that you know what the "beginning" looked like btw, why wouldn't it have been all space with a single shining point of energy?

octave Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 I would go back and test the grandfather paradox (not with my grandfather but with yours Bex) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty_d Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Sorry, Marty_d but that post was a FAIL.You were supposed to post a funny reply. But the idea is sound. Hmmm. Now you may not have noticed, OME, but I just slipped back in time and impregnated your grandmother. Now show some respect to your grandfather!

No, what I saw couldn't have been the beginning. That point just faded away every time I watched it. My theory is that in the beginning, God created a test pattern. rgmwa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PA. Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 I would go forward in time and see who turned up at my funeral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 It would work OK at a horse race meeting or footy if you are a betting person. I'm not a gambling person, but then It would not be a gamble then, just a superb unfair game changing advantage. Nev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old man emu Posted May 3, 2017 Author Share Posted May 3, 2017 I wonder if, because a Time Traveler who knew the result of a race and put a sheep station on the winner, if that would change the starting odds, or the starting odds obtained would be as a result of the sheep station being laid.

Marty_d Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I had this discussion with mates the other day. We figured that the best thing you could do is (modestly) use your knowledge of what's going to happen in the stock market - companies that succeed aren't as likely to be affected by small events, as chance events are. Shares in Microsoft, Facebook, Apple... couldn't go wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
