i just watched the movie primer in which two dudes invent a time machine that can go back one day at a time, but because of the way the plot works, the machine takes a day to warm up, immediatly they use it to cheat the stock market, lets see if facepunchers can come up with worse ways to use it what would you do if you could go back to the beginning of the day every day [B]edit[/B] obey time travel paradoxes if you want because believing in time paradoxes is in of itself a time paradox id have a whitty conversation on causality with my past self that involved a lot of diagrams and analogies
Wait until the lottery drawing, go back with the winning numbers, repeat.

I'd have gay sex with myself
Do the repercussions from Primer apply to this though? Or are we assuming it's relatively safe? Because there were some health issues brought up with the use of the machine. Good movie. If there are health repercussions then I wouldn't use it at all. I might use it to prevent some kind of crime like an abduction or something.

[QUOTE=isnipeu;42439193]I'd have gay sex with myself[/QUOTE] wouldn't that just be REALLY creative masturbating?
I'd create a better time travel device so I can go back in time further
Stop myself from associating with one kid in my childhood. When we were friends, all he did was get me in to fights in my neighborhood. Got to the point where I pushed him out of his trampoline and knocked him out, buuuut his dad was a roid-raged bodybuilder, so that didn't go well afterwards.

[editline]7th October 2013[/editline] In all seriousness though I get where you're coming from.
i'd probably use it to rape random people and commit various crimes with no negative repercussions. you did say this was a chance to do the most horrible thing ever right?
I probably wouldn't use it honestly. If I did, I'd imagine that I'd disappear from the universe I came from altogether, leaving my friends and family behind without a trace forever.
I'd move all the stuff in my room around to confuse me when I wake up.
I'd keep it in my home as a conversation piece
Go back to whenever apes evolved into humans Nuke africa. Being serious though, i'd probably cheat the stock market :v:
I'd put a little less instant coffee in my cup. It came out a little too strong. Also, I'd have something better than a salad for breakfast.

Spend the entire day in places with CCTV on me constantly. Go back in time. Purge the streets of England.

I wouldn't use it. My days aren't all that good
I was going to say I'd go and stop myself from going into a relationship, but I think the while we were together outweighs the long while of brokenness afterward
Cheat the stock market + win plenty of lotteries + have an affair
