I wouldn't recognize myself

[Galt]

I see these movies where people go back in time, or get cloned or whatever and immediately recognize themselves.

I think that's bullshit. I honestly don't know what I look like. Like everyone else, I think pictures look nothing like me (I'm thinking it's because you see yourself in a mirror -- which is backwards), and I when I do look in the mirror, it's to groom, not to drink in my beauty.

So, being the case that if someone walked up to me and said "I'm you" either present-time me or from the future, in a Biff Tannen-like deal, I would need him to prove to me that he's me. Therefore, pretend you walk up to yourself and say "I'm you and I need to tell you something important", and present-day you says "prove you're me"

What would you say?

I would say...

..that I have had a little random tiny (1/2" long by about 1/10") black and red magnet with me for as long as I can remember. I have no idea where it came from, but I just remember it being on my floorboard as a kid, I kept it there growing up, and I've just always brought it with me whenever I moved. And I'm not even superstious. Nobody in the world knows this.

....I would mention how when I visited Pat Joyce's house when I was in high school, I stole is Rickey Henderson 1980 rookie card. I was probably 15

.....That for some reason when I was a kid, I always wished my name was "Dan", and when I met my Danny Kirby, who was the son of a friend of my father's, I didn't like him because he had my name. I think I was about 7.

I'd tell myself about the time my mother told me to give my baby sister a bath and I filled the bathtub up with hot scolding water (it was about up to her knees) and put her in. She must have been 1 or 2 years old, at an age where she was just starting to be able to stand up. I was in kindergarten or 1st grade. So my sister starting shaking because it was so hot and she stood up to try to get up and I pushed back in. By then she was screaming pretty good and my mother ran up to see what was going on.

So I took a beating that night!

i would remind myself of some of the horrid and depraved things i have thought about while masturbating. that would certainly get my attention!

Or the time you snorted coke and took a stroke.

Whichever jogs your memory the quickest.

[Arpikarhu]

i had stopped doing blow long before i had a stroke. do i need to create a timeline?

[Hawt Baux]

I think you should.

The people demand a retrospective look in the life and times of Arpi

I can't say cause what if it gets out and someone stops me on the street and says they are me and then tell me my secret.

[Hawt Baux]
