Augie Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 I’ve always said I wouldn’t change a thing, other than if I had hurt someone. I never meant to hurt anyone else, knowingly or otherwise. I’m sure I did and I regret any time that happened. Also, if I had done anything differently, I might not be where I am today, which is blessed in many ways. NOW, based on these new rules.....I passed on way too many girls in college who were not just “maybe’s”, but I passed on some great girls for what I thought at the time were good reasons. As they say, you regret the things you DON’T do more than the things you DO do. This is apparently a common theme. Beyond that....Apple (I’ve always thought of myself as Forrest Gump-like), Google, Amazon and the usual cast of characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snafu Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 I'd pull a Biff Tannen and make loads on sports betting -- but I'd act like me, and not like Biff Tannen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B) I wouldn't have sold weed my senior year of high school. Ended up getting suspended for 2 weeks, barred from all school functions, the prom, lost my driving privelages, and had to ride the bus my senior year, had to tuck in my shirt for the rest of the year. C) On the bright side they never called the cops and I wasn't going to Harvard anyway so it really had no bearing on my academic future. A) You could have been Travis Henry’s role model! B) At the very least, you shouldn’t have gotten caught! C) I went to Harvard. You walk around for a little while, check out the geeks, maybe hit the bookstore to get out of the heat or cold outside. Other than that it seemed overrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Tom Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 I would have put far less effort into trying to please other people. (Yes, I'm basically saying I would have acted more like I do now.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 I’d have nailed chicks that were totally giving me signs that I was not seeing and staying away from them because of shyness there are a couple of bullies I would like to go back and deal with now that I know they were just trying to dominate me for fear of me finding my balls and destroying them for the cowards they actually were Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to be you could make a good living as a craftsman, etc. but it is so hard to find such a job that is more than a lot of hours with minimal pay in current times. I wished that I was more serious about something such as law school in my youth but it seemed like a lot of investment just to come back home and do closings on real estate transfers.
