back in my high school psychology class (lol) we wrote ourselves five year in the future a letter.
when i was in college, i got that letter (our teacher actually sent them out), and i was reading it, and everything i mentioned in there, i had almost completely forgot about. and i even wrote in there "if you remember what this means...". i didn't. i was pissed. :mad: |
What was the phrase you were suppose to remember?
Or better yet, ill try and guess it "peanut butter and ham sandwiches in the morning?"
*one of my friends had that in something he wrote as a kid and then after reading it he said "look at that, I was such a weird little " |

i don't remember off hand - and this was like four years ago when i got "teh letter".
i still have my old journals from elementary school. you know, the ones you had to write in everyday @ school? i've occasionally looked back at them, and all i talked about was food, and how much i hated the lunch lady. if it wasn't for my awesome metabolism, i'd be one fat , me thinks. |

A site where you can make predictions that don't get opened until a certain amount of time would be great. When the time has passed, others can browse through the many predictions and see how accurate they were.
Death pools and short-term predictions would be a nice touch as well. It would be interesting to rank the best predictors. |

I never, ever wrote a journal, ever (wish I had though but every teacher I had in elementary school never ever encouraged writing as a hobby). And I've moved so much since I was 6 that I dont have anything left of when I was a kid. But the only thing I remember was that I had a very big collection of ninja turtle toys and I played with them til about grade 5-6, when it was really uncool to play with little kids toys, and my buddies would make fun of my , but i still kept'em til I was like 20 when my little cousin was old enough to play with'em, and I gave them to him as a present. Man, I wish I had that collection back, prolly worth something now... |

Is this when Skynet becomes a reality? :conf: |

I dunno if we could make all of our transportation infrastructures so that there are multi magnet roadways/highways, covering a large portion of our metropolitan areas by 2040. I can imagine highways being rebuilt to support this, but I cant imagine buildings being transformed into large magnet roadways to travel on within 32 years. |
as noted by my post above that one i said not by 2040.
and to whoever it was that mentioned fapping...that would mean fapping is useless. cause fapping depends on friction! |

:) i can see it being the potential to take hold, which would be really awesome, but its a technology that still has a lot of development to be done. the maglev trains are generally a pretty large installation on a whole. they also require a lot of electricity. it will be interesting to see how that technology gets applied elsewhere if at all. |

Hey not bad - 50% accurate!
