"Wise up, dickhead!"

The last physical game I ever had trouble finding when it released was GTA San Andreas. I really couldnt find it for about a week maybe 2 which was nuts.

You are bi-polar

That was me. Around 2009 I remember first hearing about it and trying to buy it and quickly realizing it wasnt that easy and seemed sketcky so i just said whatever... i wonder what I would have done if I did.

My 18 was also way before (2000) this so i hope i remember it for that long. And honestly life was good up until 2009 so i wouldnt really change any of that anyway. 2009 on could have used some improvements...

It’s all bullshit.

Life gets worse

Invest in Apple.

Buy some bitcoin

Take LSD now

I wanted to exit tech and thought bars might work.

They didn't. Even loving what I did in bar-land, it ultimately led to substantial debt that I'll be paying on for years.

I was happier in general, but the financial viability was impossible.

edit: Beer margins are crazy, but not during COVID and not now.

first choice:
PURSUE NUCLEAR ENGINEERING

runner up:
YOU AIN'T MALE

third place:
ATTENTION DEFICIT: REAL

Get over it

You'll win this

There's no God.

It's-A-Me!

Write down deadlines!

Not fuck crazy!

Seek mental help

Move somewhere else.

With you on 1 and 3, not so much 2...

When I was 18 ADHD was something kids had and you outgrew it. I probably couldn't have been evaluated then. So nuclear engineering it is.

Two would be enough, "buy bitcoin".

what says that you wouldnt have sold it e.g. when the price doubled? like from $10 to $20?

ADHD not stupid

Bitcoin 100k

Jensen, that you?

Don’t stop believin’

2 was my first thought too, but maybe its better that I didnt had my egg cracking while I was still living with my parents (the funny thing is, that I still had my egg cracking while staying at my parents place between semesters) and going to school.

Maybe you could say "you're a woman", but you're still male, unless you've had major work done.

18 was a long ass time ago for me. It would have been the late 90's. The world was so much different that I don't think anything I could say in 3 words would make any sense to my 18 year old self. I didn't have any money at 18 so something like "buy apple stock" wouldn't have worked.

Even taking the big assumption that I believed what I was telling my 18 year old self I can't actually come up with anything that makes sense in context. 3 words just isn't enough to convey anything useful given the time difference and everything else!

Bitcoin. One hundred…

You just blew it.

18yo me would be living in the early 2000s; any of these would set me up for life:
“Bitcoin hits $100K”
“Buy Tesla shares” - this also would work for any of the big brands Netflix/Nvidia etc.

But this one would probably change my life in a much more meaningful way:
“Don’t lose her.”

You 19 now

go to gym

It's still fucked.

Just be punk.

Your 18 year old self being really confused because you basically used 4 words so the message that arrives is just "It's still..". Just imagine what weird stuff your 18 year old self would do because it thinks it found the secret of your message.

sell at $100… got it! thanks future me! will do!

Buy All Bitcoin

Drop out. Act.

Instructions unclear, sold it when it doubled.

A contraction is still one word, even if it's the combination of both

Move to Europe

Tossup between "buy Bitcoin now" and "you are autistic"

The first one, because, obviously. The second one, because I didn't find out until I was in my 30s. My lemmy account is older than my diagnosis.

She was interested in you, go talk to her.

Buy $0.01 bitcoin.

"you're a girl"

Ask doctor paroxetina

Your future self will say "that's nine words" =]

Don't. Marry. Her.

Girl, you're -
