If you could write a letter to yourself in the past...

[AARST]

Dear past self,

Stop being such a pussy.
Also, somewhere near the end of 2000 once your mother is finally gone, convince dad to buy Google stock. Better yet, convince him to go work for Google.
Get a part-time job and buy the following items as cheap as they can get in the noted years:
Sega CD & 32x: between 1996 and 2000
Saturn: between 1999 and 2001
Dreamcast: between 2002 and 2006
3DO: between 1997 and 1999
Jaguar: between 1995 and 2002
Any console released before 1990: Between whenever you get this message and 1997, once the internet gets really big the prices rise very quickly.

Good luck,

Your Future Self

PS: Once you finally get a PC, kick your brothers off and try out that cartoon making program, it's the only chance you'll get.

Note To Past Self:
GET A DREAMCAST!

[Also, don't trade away that copy of Earthbound that the video store forgot you rented, and don't trade away Yoshi's Safari just because you're baffled as to why you can't use the standard controller.]

Kiss her you pussy!

BTW, X was lesbian so don't waste your time.

Dear self:

Don't put so much stuff on your credit card fool! The interest is way too high.

We have a video link dump thread....

Dear mini-me,

In this package I have included a computer and some game consoles from the future loaded with the best videogames from the 80's, 90's, and 00's. You thought Mike Tyson's Punch Out had awesome graphics? Prepare to have your fucking mind blown.

Love,

-Yourself


P.S. I didn't mean "love yourself" in that way. If you do too much of that and play these videogames too much, you will fall behind in school and never succeed which will never lead you to marry the sexy-smart babe that future you has married. Do not destroy future-you's life please. Enjoy these games, but remember what the poster in Mrs. Rigby's class says with the penguin who wears sunglasses: "Be cool, stay in school"

Dear Self

Stay gold pony-boy, stay gold



p.s. when you meet Amber at the local basketball game. RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN!

I would write to thy self: save every games and systems you have in mint conditon with all the boxes. Also all the comics and vintage toys too!

Honestly, the only thing I'd tell past me to change is not miss out on some great opportunities to get laid that I never took

Same!
