destroy it because i can’t be trusted with it, frankly

ideally i’d save my grandfathers from cancer and prevent my dad from losing half his hearing and so on

but i think i’d really just end up using it selfishly and maybe killing people before they could grow up to be a pain in the arse

Photobomb every major historical photo. Becoming James B. Pirk would be great, too.

Destroy it if I can. Time flow should not be disturbed. What happened happened. DEAL WITH IT. Even if it’s hard, we must move forward. In time we grow stronger because such are the laws of nature.

Taking some cues from what Bio said he would do, but without changing major historical events. cough

First step, acquire a taser, a flamethrower, and a sword that can conduct the elements of both, and maybe some sci-fi looking armor.

Then I’d go through history and turn myself into an urban legend/minor god in several different cultures.

Become a pop culture icon by fighting in the Roman Coliseum. Have all the ladies swoon over me and buy my sweat in bottles because that is a fact of Roman life.

Do the same thing in Medieval Europe, but as a knight. Adopt a coat of arms that uses leetspeak and MLG phrases, and graffiti it into several medieval buildings.

Chill out with John the Baptist and Jesus and his disciples. I especially want to see what went down with Jesus in the temple.

Go find Leonardo Da Vinci and co-develop a clockwork bulletproof mecha, then use it to storm a castle.

Learn legit marital arts and bushido in feudal/Sengoku Japan. Get some Samurai’s autographs for my bud @Maethorneth.

Get assistance from an ancient swordsmith to redesign my taser/flamethrower blade.

1v1 King Arthur, Richard the Lionheart, Spartacus, Julius Caesar, Alexander the Great, George Washington, Napoleon, Attila the Hun, Saladin, Theodore Roosevelt, and @Ekorak.

Kill Hitler exactly five minutes before he shoots himself.

Create a lion-tiger-panther-dinosaur-whaleshark-spider hybrid and ride it.

write my coat of arms, and “ngram”, on the backsides of Mona Lisa, Starry Night, Venus de Milo, the Thinker, etc.

Lastly, have BIONICLE be released in the 1970s so that no one can complain about it.

Of course you would have to use old money, from before the 90’s otherwise they’d think it’s counterfeit money, and arrest you, then you’re stuck in 1985 :confused:

But that’s the year Doc Brown invented time travel. There’s still hope!

I would go back once to every year after 2010 and tell Bungie to never trust Activision. And hopefully save/fix Destiny in the process.

You know, if you tried to change the past, you would just transport yourself to an alternate dimension where the thing you changed happened the way you changed it. You can’t affect the present/future in our dimension.
