What the hell do you want to say to yourself? Obviously your future self will be much wiser, so probably - "You were stupid 1,3,5,10 years ago, and you never thought flying cars would catch on."

just say like what your goals are, who your friends/girlfriend is, stuff u like to do, any fun parties youve went to. then in like 5 years u can look back and be like 'ahh good times' or like 'i cant beleive i was goin out with that ho-bag,' or 'man that guy was sweeet, i should call him up sometime' and laugh at how insignificant your problems seem compared to your present day ones etc...

just have some fun with it

Well, to my 20 year self, I was all like, holy shit man, your 40 years old, do you have kids???

Then I stated some of the stuff that is going on right now. I said things like minimum wage is like 7 bucks, cars cost about 20k, George Bush is president, computers run at 3.2 gHZ.
Seeing as how Ill get it in 2025

"Seriously Laura McIsaac, if you have not fucked at least a couple beautiful men that ski, you should probably go kill yourself pretty soon."



I think it would be cooler to send it 10 or 20 years into the future, but i really doubt my email address will still be lau-radical@hotmail.com when i'm in my late 30s

Someone should write the email up but fill in all their friends information. So the friend gets it in 10 years and is like "wtf I never wrote this shit."

i just got a great but not likely to work idea

1. send a letter to an email account which you just created, like newschooler44587@yahoo.com. make it send in 70 years or so, so that it would be sent when you are dead.

2. conceive a child. give the email address to your child, and make sure he keeps it.

3. after you die, your child, who would be around 40 or 50 years old, will receive an email from his/her dead parent from the motherfuckin afterlife! it would be nutty.
