Trump · 22-25, M

I didn't even exist 20 years ago

SameSame · 26-30, F

@Trump I suppose you'll have to choose between existence or non-existence!

Trump · 22-25, M

@SameSame existence definitely

xixgun · M

Going to have to pass on both unless my wife can come too.

JimminyChristmas · 56-60, M

@xixgun You must be a very lucky man. 👍️

xixgun · M

@JimminyChristmas I believe so.

Younger. Got mistakes I would undo

@SameSame believe me, it would be awesome 😎

You just opened my eyes to how much I gotta think of the future now. Like what would I wanna tell myself in 20 years? 🤔
Besides needing to stop being up at 3am when I got work tomorrow studying dank memes like a science

SameSame · 26-30, F

@SW-User Hahaha 😂 Yeah, do future you some favors! Future me probably hates me for some of my poor decisions 😂

@SameSame saaammeee but hey 🤗
We live and learn. You don't grow til you make mistakes sometimes

SwampFlower · 31-35, F

Take my back to 6 going on 7. I'll be dust in 20 more years.

texasborn89 · 31-35, M

younger I was much happier then

CM440 · 56-60, C

Twenty years younger. Twenty was a lot of fun but by only going back twenty years I can enjoy more life and have the stability I've gained in life.

ThatMusgraveWoman · 70-79, F

If I was 20 years older I'd probably be dead, so I'll go for the younger option so I can make the same mistakes, but better.

I would rather be 62 than 22. I was not a very mature person in my 20's at all.

SameSame · 26-30, F

@latinbutterfly You might have to change your name to grandmamabear at that point!

latinbutterfly · F

@SameSame I probably will be a grandmother at 62! 😁

SW-User

20 years younger. Life was so much easier then, but I certainly don't want to be dead yet.

Poppies · 61-69, F

Um, 20 years older could be very dangerous. Let's go with the 20 years younger.

Syktur · 26-30, M

I don’t want to be 4 so going with 20 years older.

SameSame · 26-30, F

@Syktur Yeah, I wouldn't want to be 1 😂

AllAboutLaffs · 70-79, M

Definitely going with the "younger" option ..

SW-User

20 years younger, because I'd rather be 29 than 69.

AuRevoir · 36-40, M

Younger physically. Perhaps older mentally.

JimminyChristmas · 56-60, M

20 years younger. Why would I want to be older?

SW-User

Younger younger yes not older just younger

NotJamieM · 46-50, M

I think I have to go with younger on this one, lol.

HannibalAteMeOut · 22-25, F

4 months old or 40 years old 🤔 can't decide

NickiHijab · F

I would mind being 2 again

quitwhendone · M

That's easy. 20 years younger.

ScrewThisImDone · 26-30, F

20 years younger

bijouxbroussard · F

20 years younger, definitely. I don’t expect to live another 20 years, tbh.

SameSame · 26-30, F

@bijouxbroussard I figure this question would be hardest for the late-20s/early-30s crowd to answer. Most younger people would pick older, and most older people would pick younger.
