There has to be a limitation. It's based off either what would you change in your past or how would you react to your younger self, or, if you went forward, what would you find out about yourself. Since most of us are at an age where we're not exactly spring chickens, going any further forward makes no sense and if you're going to try and change your life, chances are whatever you think you did wrong, you did no more than ten years ago. Also, leave me alone.

What's even the point of going back (10 years or less) if you're not actually living your own life, as it were? Also, is it a one-way ticket or do you get to go back to your own time? And will you change the present by going to the past or were you always meant to and the changes you caused already happened before you decided to time travel? I need answers! (not really)

1. When you’re thirsty at home, what’s your first choice? Water? Juice? Soda? Tea? Coffee? Other?

Water. Coffee and tea dehydrate, not hydrate

2. What’s your favourite episode of The Simpsons?

The two that stuck with me are the one with MJ and the Australia one. I don't think I watched more than 10 eps overall

3. What would/do you want inscribed on your tombstone?

A rather untranslatable short poem by my favorite poet, Marina Tsvetaeva. Though there are quite a few sentences by Maurice Blanchot I could, ahem, live with as well

4. If you could go forward or backwards in time, up to ten years, which would you choose?

I'm not good at this sci fi ****

5. What is the coolest car you’ve ever driven, whether you owned it or not?

Whatever I learned driving on cause that's as far as I got

6. What’s your view on a person’s right to die?

Inalienable. Having said that, it could become a thorny issue in the age of overpopulation, climate crises, further rolling back of welfare services etc. Something like this is a warning sign:

No opinion on f&ckability of senior citizens but young Helen Mirren is easily one of the sexiest women to ever grace the screen.

I suppose the real point is to freak your younger self out by making ghostly moans and saying "look what you turn out to be!" As for the rest? Hell, I don't know: sign up for Temporal Mechanics 101.

i mean that's one of the big problems i have with those shows is they never depict time traveling realistically.

Yeah. H.G. Wells was all about dat ass.
