If you could embark on a total recall style vacation to your past...

If you could go to a place, and take a trip through different events in nostalgialand, would you?

Where would you go and why?

Was just thinking about the past and memories and people from years ago. Thought about how it might be awesome to someday be able to relive some of that stuff. At the same time I'm not sure that would really be helpful and maybe would be harmful in the long run.

I would probably go back to 2007 when I was living in Europe and relive the 4 moths I spent skiing there. The memories are starting to fade and they were some of the best times of my life. Loved it.

I'll be honest. I've never seen this movie so I don't know how to reply properly to this thread. Maybe I should go back in time to the theatre so I could watch this movie?

I would go back to the days of getting home from school and going to my friends house.
We would go to his playroom, pull out our mini collapsable chairs, drink apple juice, eating Nutri-Grain granola bars, and watching Pokemon for 2 hours on Kids WE.

i'd go to the future, fuck the past. wouldn't you rather find out about what hasn't happened rather than revisit something that has?

Because the thread specifically says 'your past' and 'nostalgialand'; both of them are not found in the future...

Hmm. Basically you can go to this company and you "go on a vacation. They put you in a machine and it's like you're actually there having the experience. When you leave you have memories of the vacation that seem completely real, even though you never went on the cruise, Africa, or wherever your vacation happened.

Was just thinking today about the past and what I would want if technology would ever allow us to go back and relive different events. At that point, what would I want to go check out, and is it something that's a good idea or should we just keep those things as memories.

Was curious as to what events might stick out to other people.

That one time I got really good head.


Or the powder day a few years ago where I was out the night before and I'd kick the shit out of past me for sleeping in and shred some of the lightest deepest snow I can remember on a blue bird day.

Tough call

well i saw the movie and it's not about time travel and reminiscing your past, it's about getting a new memory implanted in you...

Pain killers will boost the feeling of nostalgia a fuckload. For ex if you took some and then go to a place you haven't been for 10 years, you will feel like you walked into the past. I'm not even joking but it only works with the best pks like hydro condone and hydromorphone and morphine.
Anyways I'm not suggesting to use opiates but if u like nostalgia they will blow your mind
