I should sell her a computer. I'm sure I have something 486 related in the shed.

Yeah, this would actually make a very good movie premise. Following a girl who ends up suffering from the permanent effect of this disorder (although through a huge lapse of time - think an 87 year old thinking she is 15) and how she eventually learns to cope and those who care for her - doctors, family, etc. - learn and help her with her condition.

It's a disorder, like any other mental disease. A schizophrenic doesn't realize what they're perceiving is various personalities all created - and played - by themselves. That sense of logic and rational is lost because of the fact that your mind really isn't functioning right in the first place.

it sounds traumatizing but eventually you would get used to it. it would be amazing to relive every new movie and game and tv show since 1992 as if it were your first time

I'm thinking something more traumatic though and dramatic, like a 14 year old waking up as a 71 year old.
I wish I could go back to the 90's.
The music was so good back then.
Jason Bourne woke up and killed some guy with a towel and an extension cord. This women doesn't compare.

The difference being Jason Bourne is a fictional character.

Way to ruin my fun. Regardless, he's still a fucking badass. How many people do you know that ride a body falling down a stairwell, and manage to land a headshot?
How many people do you know that can make magic come out of a stick?

Closest match if we're talking about movies.

Amnesia wasn't as "popular" then as it is now and besides it rarely happens without any causes, so going to sleep and waking up in the future would be way more surprising to a 15 year old from 1992 (remember,when she woke up she still had the mind of a 15 year old) than it would be for someone from now (personally if I "woke up" 15 years from now with no recollection of what happened in-between I would think I had time-travelling powers :v:)
No this is the closest match

I wouldn't blame her. 1992 was the best ever year. The 10th of July to be exact.

If that happened to me I would have broken down. At least she got lucky and got her memory back :smile:
SHIT kurt cobain died
Reminds me of that episode of My Name is Earl.
This reminds me of a friend of mine who has chronic migraines and lapses in her memory. One time she had one while at a train station in Italy on vacation. An entire month just disappeared and she found herself two countries away. I never got a straight answer as to what that feels like.

I thought about this, but she didn't lose her memory so much as everyone tried to create her past around her (which wasn't that far away either, just a drastic change in the environment and society). She didn't wake up thinking it was years in the past, she just woke up thinking she still lived in East Germany.
