remember when kids had to steal porn from their dads' secret stashes?
"Using" your dad's / older brother's Playboy seems so gross to me.
You did your best to not ponder it. But truly among young men I was blessed. Growing up, I earned pocket money/paid for my phone line by pushing a broom at my dad's garage. Where there was not merely one stash of porn but many. A veritable buffet of porn.
I'm gonna be "that guy" and say I absolutely would not go back. I'm only who I am because I made the mistakes I did then. Even for the most painful parts I experienced or the most horrible things I could've prevented, I wouldn't want it to have happened any other way. I think the way things would be different, the way things would have to progress, I would end up deeply missing now, which is something I would never be able to get back, something which I, myself, invalidated the entire existence of.
Mistakes are necessary, they're how you grow, and we have regrets to prevent things from happening in the future like they did in the past, not so that we can just lament the past for being what it was.
Think about it like this: say you did hit the button, and you went back, and you lived out your life differently and avoided all the mistakes you made the first time around. Now you get to your current age, and lo and behold someone gives you the opportunity to hit the button just like last time. Would you hit it then? Surely, you would've made some new mistakes, things couldn't go exactly as you planned, everything wouldn't be totally perfect. On the reasoning you used to hit it the first time, why wouldn't you hit it again? And then, again? And again? Why would you ever let time progress, let anyone or anything in the world grow except yourself?
what if all the mistakes i made are the reason i'm not a colossal doucheturd

So Raytheon is the dumbest company. There is a project to adapt an air to air missile for surface use. Fills a medium range gap and should end up saving a bunch of money compared to developing one from scratch. But Raytheon refuses to use the development designation of SLAMRAAM (with the SL being surface launched). Do they not under stand that weapon systems with cool names sell better? Shit I want to buy fifty based on the name alone.

Every one of their press releases call it the AMRAAM-EM. Which isn't awful but lacks the poetic beauty of SLAMRAAM.
Next generation will just be called PLANEFUCKER
Accompanying press release says "fuck it, think of your own acronym"
I am 100% sure that at some point a missile designer did their absolute best to come up with or as close as they could get to that exact acronym.
Yeah right now I think I'd go back to like a month ago and see if there was some way I could prevent my relationship from ending
but I've always been one of those "I wouldn't change my mistakes" people so maybe I'll feel differently when the whole healing thing is over
BC believe me
You want your relationships to end when they do

If I could go back in time all I would do is give myself all the personal information I've learned over the years and then talk about it before it was ever actually mentioned in [chat]
AND FREAK ALL OF YOU THE FUCK OUT

YOU stevenAbigailJohannesAlexander .. TIM
Yeah thats right ..TIM
You told us your name on February 10th 2016
BUT I ALREADY KNOW IT
My life has been incredibly hard, and I wouldn't go back and change it...it's how I have my life, my kids, my amazing marriage.
Plus, I'd have to go back knowing several members of our families and a dear friend were going to die and there was nothing I could do to help. Reliving stuff that was out of my control and impacted me sounds like choosing to go be tortured all over again and, frankly, I'm just not a masochist *shrug*

I feel like this is on the edge of "everything happens for a reason".
And I feel the question isn't about fixing all the minor mistakes until you're perfect, but rather about actual scarring events.

What about just being able to send a message back to your past self that they're able to act on? Maybe one I could send to myself at 19 that just says "GO TO CLASS, DICK"

I mean, it's a development of the SRAAM but I'm convinced someone at some stage just started referring to it as "Advanced SRAAM" in the fervent hope it would stick.

Oof, I am making myself real emotional right now thinking about this. My immediate reaction is that I would totally push the button and go back solely in order to somehow prevent some specific bad shit happening to people I love. Really making myself upset over here.

Also if you went back in time and tried to change shit BC you'd wind up married with 8 kids in Australia and watch and horror as each child was killed by a unique and deadly creature only found in Australia.
In a complete breakdown you'd purchase a handgun
While contemplating the end you notice a 30 inch neon purple melbournese hissing viper spider on your arm and spend the next 72 hours having an unending severe seizure in torturous pain as the venom leeches the life from you.
All while praying in the back of your mind that you could reach out and grab the gun that fell to the floor and end it
but you cant
you just cant
All because you went back in time and changed one little thing.
This story isn't even real and its making me cry
what have you done

wow. uhh.
Yeah, this is a good answer.
Like, every day you could just live like a king on your savings while taking all sorts of lessons, learning new languages, kung fu master, etc... make it a vacation day from work so they wont bother you, and come out of that loop with years of life skills and fun memories and stuff.
then you aren't stuck reliving the past either.
