the 1st weird thread of 2007

Lounge Lizards Forum

Well it is time for another weird thread. So here ya go.

You are standing out in an open field at an INR picnic. You find an unusual timepiece lying under a rock. You pick it up, and suddenly a bright light encases you and your INR friends and you are instantly transported back to the year 1990. What do you do?

Da rulz: You may not have ANY contact with your spouses & or family members, but you may hang with your INR friends. You also have a BOAT LOAD of cash, so money is no object.

I'd make large wagers with the "locals" on when the USSR is going to fall.

Me and Gabo go to Micheal Jackson's house and beat the crap outta him.

Then we show tell George Lucas just how bad he screwed up on the new Star Wars trilogy, and force him to hire another director.

Well, I'm 12 so I'd be pissed. I'd tell Scott Norwood to not shank the Super Bowl.

-HECK!

1990 so I'd be 22, I guess I'd go in search of a pirate named Noth and show him the PAB's or something like that.

OR

I'd go pay a boat load of money to HECKs mom to let me babysit him, then I'd have my HP books from the future and make him sit and listen to me read it.

Whidden, well I'd meet him and try to get him to turn all sneaky like me. Then we could go to the younin' INR members houses and give them the "say no to drugs" talk.

If I was the age I am now back in 1990 I would hit up Vegas. It still wasn't so friendly like it is now. Party it up in some of the remaining old school spots still there.

-HECK!

I wasn't even 1 yet in 1990, so I'll answer like I'm 17. I'd probably make a lot of bets, tell George Lucas not to make any more Star Wars movies, and buy up as many of the good old 90s X-Men comic books as I could find. I'd also do my best to stop Grunge before it can get started.

Man, I was 12 at the time... I have a ton of cool X-Men comics from the time

-HECK!

Don't about the best thing but Grunge was huge and I dug it in the 90's. I sure as hell dug it. I'd have to jump on Nirvana's side on this one.

-HECK!

Meh. I'm not a fan, but at least it brought some attention to the NW, so I guess if I failed it wouldn't be terrible.

I'd invent toys like Skipit and Nanopets and other toys that were popular in the '90s and cash in before the people who really invented them could do that. Oh, I'd also play the Oregon Trail computer game all the time. I miss that game!

I would buy up all the original Beanie Babies... dude, some of those sold for $5 - $10k, per beanie. That's sweet.

I would also turn in the numbers for the hugest lottery, that no one else won, and become filthy rich.

I would buy stock in some companies that boomed in the 90's.

I would convince TV's Punky Brewster to not get a breast reduction.

-HECK!

I would have Monica Lewinski flunk a few grades in school, so that she wasn't working in the white house during Clinton's time.

Yeah, and tell Chris Farley to take it easy on the coke and booze.

-HECK!

Good lord. I was 16 in 1990!

I feel OLD!!!

I didn't even get my first kiss till I was almost 17! (yeah, i'm a sad case so what?)
What would I do? I would take all the money I had and hire the guy who offered me a recording contract way back when instead of turning him down because I was too young (stupid stupid stupid)
