If June 2004 you could see the current you

What would he/she say? Mine would probably call me a dirty liberal hippy, with his nose turned up and all. And he'd probably take me literally if I said I'd injected marijuanas. For younglings, half your age, I guess.

  • They would be like, "Holy shit, you said this would never happen." Then I'd punch the little version of me in the face and scream, "YOLO!'

  • That's a good question. For the record, I was 9 years old then and in the 3rd grade. I would have just begun wearing glasses, begun playing soccer, and thought I was the shit. I distinctly remember being the class clown and being kind of a nerd. He'd be happy in the fact that I grew up to be a Firefighter and in the Army, because belonging to organizations like those are what 9 year olds dream of. He'd be unhappy in the fact that I chose Math as a major, because he thinks math is -blam!-ing boring and for losers. He'd be slightly disappointed in the fact that I stopped being the class clown in the 5th grade and became an awkward, pretentious nerdasshole until the 11th grade. He'd be weirded out by the fact that I have dated girls (those cooties man, think about the -blam!-ing cooties). He'd wonder why I gave up playing the trumpet. (It was because I couldn't get laid with a trumpet, really.) I'd show him a picture of me with long hair and he'd agree with me that it looked terrible. He'd wonder why I didn't become an engineer like my grandfather and most other men in my family, and I'd have to explain that it wasn't really my dream, it was my dad's dream that he superimposed on me and my brother. He'd wonder if I did anything with archaeology/paleontology because I thought either was awesome in the 3rd grade and read dozens of books on both subjects in elementary school. I'd have to say I don't know why, because that sounds like a great -blam!-ing idea and wish I thought of that :\ He'd wonder why I don't read that many books anymore - because in elementary school, I read a lot of books - like, say, a 100+ page book every few days in the summer, and I'd explain that you'll have been forced to reading so much that you'll hate it by the 7th grade. He'd wonder if I could still spell paleontologist, which was a word I used in the 3rd grade to sound intelligent. (I can :D) He'd wonder if I ever broke anything, which I did - my wrist and my toe. Funnily enough, both were broken shortly after the 3rd grade ended. He's be disappointed in the fact that I expanded my food palette to more than plain pizza, pasta, burgers and hot dogs. He'd wonder if my brother would ever stop being irritating. (The answer to that he stopped being irritating when I did.) He'd ask what video-games are like nowadays, and I couldn't give him a good answer because it's been 2 years since I played them to any large extent. So on and so forth...

  • How could June 2004 see me? Does it have eyes? I thought it was an abstract concept, not a physical being O__O

    • "Wow, I am a mean person and I look terrifying." Would probably be what 7 year old me would say.

      • Mine would probably ask about the next couple of Halo games, to be honest. Then he'd ask if I was happy.

        • He'd say I look happy. And probably ended up pretty good. What I'd say is, "there's a hell of a lot of bad shit coming your way. 2004 right? Well, up until early 2013 you're not going to have a single good day. And it's going to be hard, believe me. But stick it out. Trust me on this one, all the bad that's coming your way leads to something better." What I would have given for some words of encouragement back then.

        • My 2004 self would probably mistake me for an Amish terrorist and either call the fbi or run me over with a car. My beard/mustache grows strangely......

        • 2004 me actually [i]is[/i] half my age. You figure out my age now. Tip: my birthday is within a couple of months, so shave off like ten months from my age for the math to work.

          • Probably shocked at the sheer amount of pot I smoke. I don't even think 9 year old me knew what it was.
