    If you had a time machine ...

    And you could only do one thing. And you were not allowed to change anything. And afterwards you would have to return to your own time thing. Or else the universe would implode on itself and destroy everything, including the nothingness, and all chocolate ever made.

     
    You don't want to do that.

    What would you do?

    I would travel to about the middle of the 18th century, and read Emily Brontës second novel before her silly sister had the time to, rumour has it, burn it. Apparently she was doing it to save Emily from the harsh, contemporary critics who hurt her a lot over Wuthering Heights. #INFJs



    (No, I'm kidding. I love INFJs.)

    This might sound insignificant, but I would go to Woodstock 1969.

    I say *bad* things about Wuthering Heights in here. I'll hide it for fans of the story, so feelings might not be hurt.
     
    Wuthering Heights is an awful story.


    Time machine for me and into the Future I go! Oh... let's say 100 years forward, then 500, then 1000, then 5000. I'd look around, observe, then return to present time (too much here I love to give the present up for good).

    The past is the past.. sorry, not interested. :-p

    If I could spend about 5 years hanging out and not manage to change or upset anything, that in itself would be a feat. I think it would be awesome to experience the music scene of 1966 to 1971. I would go to San Franscisco, Germany, Britain, Detroit, Los Angeles, maybe New York, Nashville... try to catch as many good shows that i could. That would be so amazing!!!

    I'd get an oxygen tank and go back to the beginning of time. That would satisfy a lot of curiosities...

    i would travel 500 years into the future, peek out, and check if humans were still around.

    Aaargh! You stole my answer. No, actually, I'd rather go to Isle of Wight 1969 or 1970.

    That or a Joy Division concert.

    If I could only go briefly, I'd probably check out Çatalhöyük around eight thousand years ago. With a population of 10000 it would qualify as a town, today, but way back when this was the big city, Mac. It was a complex of square mudbrick houses clumped together tightly with no space in between, like some sort of cubist beehive.

    If I could go for a few years I'd travel to around the turn of the century. I would learn violin, and get a job playing it on the Titanic. I'd accompany the musicians who played while the ship sank. At the last moment I'd return to the present, shouting "So long, suckers!" or something to that affect. I'd also take some fancy silverware with me.
