And you could live to the ripe old age of 30.1000 years ago when my clan still had our kingdom in Ireland.
Hello Friend,
If this is your first visit to SoSuave, I would advise you to START HERE.
It will be the most efficient use of your time.
And you will learn everything you need to know to become a huge success with women.
Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

Someday we'll be gone too. The human race is just a fart in the wind.There will always be bugs around, it has in the past and it will be present in the future.
But don't worry, humans as a bigger bug, has that special capability to survive.
That would be a plus. And I wouldn't mind going into the not too distant path and be able to take advantage of what I know happens with the stock market. Sort of like Bif took advantage of his Sports Almanac in the second Back to the Future movie.I would like to live in a world without COVID.
Fvck yeah. I fantasize about being a warrior in my ancestors' homeland. I figure I'd die sooner, but oh the life I'd live!I had a discussion in the other thread my guess is that most men would not like to live in the past.
Would you?
Let's say your time is randomly generated in the last 10k years
compared to being a random guy in the world or the west in current times.
Maybe it makes you understand other person's mind better. Seems there is quite a difference between the futurists and the ones liking the past.Thinking about this is delusional and a complete waste of time.
A virus is a living entity and so are we.Someday we'll be gone too. The human race is just a fart in the wind.
That’s a very good point about I.D.That would be a plus. And I wouldn't mind going into the not too distant path and be able to take advantage of what I know happens with the stock market. Sort of like Bif took advantage of his Sports Almanac in the second Back to the Future movie.
If I time traveled back though, there would be a question about identification, things like my social security number for example. I wouldn't want to start making big money and then catch the interest of the government and they find out I don't really exist in that time period and I end up locked up or something, not sure how that would work.
They'd probably think you were a foreign agent or spy, since they would have no record of you.That’s a very good point about I.D.
Earth has been through far worse than humans. It will be fine and dandy after we've died out or left, until it's swallowed by the sun. We may be a virus but in the 4.5 billion year history of the Earth we're just a bad case of fleas.A virus is a living entity and so are we.
We are by far the most successful virus the earth has ever seen, maybe too successful for earth's own well-being.
However I do believe, as we evolve further, our mindsets would change in tandem with that growth and we as a species can only grow further.
I am for growth and selfimprovement but another perspective is that life is just a concept that exists in our minds and it is an artificial categorisation. What we are physically as far we understand are quantum energy fields floating and interacting with others. Not much more. The rest is a story.A virus is a living entity and so are we.

No doubt we will move on to other worlds, its the nature of virus to find another host.Earth has been through far worse than humans.

If we're lucky and don't destroy ourselves, we'll have moved on to other worlds and galaxies.
It all starts from a dream, of wanting something, that's life.I am for growth and selfimprovement but another perspective is that life is just a concept that exists in our minds and it is an artificial categorisation. What we are physically as far we understand are quantum energy fields floating and interacting with others. Not much more. The rest is a story.
I have been thankful that certain dead relatives died before the COVID era.I would like to live in a world without COVID.
Socrates and the first question of philisophy might be who am I? This thought experiment gives you and others some perspective about what kind of guy you are.Even as a thought experiment, such hypothetical questions are pointless. I see zero reason to believe the past is real, in the sense that it's a real place. Everything, from the moment of the big bang to the heat death of the universe, is simply an ongoing "process", which, when examined linearly and deterministically, consists of an infinitely complex series of events that are directly linked through cause and effect.
Furthermore, to get more annoyingly metaphysical, you cannot exist as you are now in the past, so this question is basically like asking "did humans in the past like existing in the time they existed?"
A better way to phrase this question is "what do you think was the best time to exist?" Yet it's still pointless to ask, the answer is always right now, or else you wouldn't be here.
To answer the question though, I do think it would be interesting to live Greece roughly in the time of Socrates. But again, if the "me" that would like to live in that time did in fact live in that time, it wouldn't be me, and so holding this opinion would have no meaning.
My whole argument wasn't based on Socrates (or Greek philosophy in general, which is extremely dualistic) but Buddhism, which describes how the self is an illusion, and is now backed up by neuroscientific studies.Socrates and the first question of philisophy might be who am I? This thought experiment gives you and others some perspective about what kind of guy you are.
That is why we created thousands of labels to get closer to figure it out.
Fun fact: The second or maybe the first question might be: To be or not to be.
There are many perspectives to it. It can mean a black guy in Afrika. Or a aborigines guy in Australia. Or a muslim in Mekka.My whole argument wasn't based on Socrates (or Greek philosophy in general, which is extremely dualistic) but Buddhism, which describes how the self is an illusion, and is now backed up by neuroscientific studies.
I'm saying this thought experiment doesn't help you understand what kind of guy you are, because the kind of guy you are right now is based off of 21st century genetics and social conditions, so to imagine your self as you are now in the past is utterly meaningless since it is impossible.
