While they’re at it, they need to nerf the Sociopath trait. The handful of greedy murderhobos are breaking the climate and the economy for everyone.
people say the date is dependent on the person but 2015 is basically before trump and qanon and such. So I don’t think OP is saying 2015 is the best year just that after 2015 was just craziness.
If we reset to 1960, we could avoid the whole end of the climate apocalypse thing.
I mean we wouldn’t, but we could.
Everything we do still counts. The faster we reduce carbon emissions, the less catastrophic the climate will get for our civilization.
And the emissions are still increasing.
Focusing on reducing carbon emissions and pulling it out of the atmosphere would create so much new potential in economic growth…it’s mind boggling to me, that we still debate over useless and minute changes, when the easiest and the most low hanging fruits are just being ignored.
Hell yea
yeah thats the problem. There would be time but it would be the same folks trying to do something and the same folks fighting it and the same either ignoring or being ignorant of it.
It would probably take a lot of iterations of tweaks for the overlords to fix that one.
Going back to 1960 would help us prevent Republicans from adopting the southern strategy and basically creating all modern problems
Just don’t elect, Nixon future saved
My longtime girlfriend left me the first week of 2016. It led to a lot of personal growth that would’ve never happened otherwise but I cannot downplay just how shocking it was for our mutual friend group. Memories of back then seem unrecognizable now.
David Bowie died the second week of 2016 and things kept going downhill from there.
I was entrenched in media in 2015 and it was an unbelievably entertaining year. Of course I like politics so Trump’s presidential run was pretty fucking funny.
My big thing was making fun of brexit with a british friend and trump got elected briefly afterwards. In both cases I don’t think either of us thought it would really happen before it did.
Genuinely its been so shocking. Who would have thought hundreds of millions of people’s discontent could be used to vote for brexit and trump and bring the entire world down a path towards extremism. I thought things were pretty okay in 2015, and all of those people thought the world needed a shocking shake up of the way things are done.
yeah honestly things had been generally improving after the housing crash. It was a nice, slow, steady, improvement that went into mr toads wild ride.
“We just kinda figured maybe you’d make something neat under pressure, but it appears you made TikTok and a global pandemic instead.” The spokesman went on to suggest that maybe they should go back an extra year, just for good measure. “We want to give everyone a chance to reconsider their actions. Although I was personally in favor of an extra year, the council has decided that 2015 is an acceptable starting point.” The spokesman then left the podium to the Chronometric Operations, Observation and Managment representative.
What SCP is this?
Better plot than most movies these days.
Still waiting
Reptiles are slow to get around to doing things
I have a sun lamp they can borrow
If they did this, I wouldn’t even be mad about there being shadow overlords.
I think 2012 would be best for the UK.
It’s all been aggressively down hill since the olympics.
I like the theory that the Mayans were absolutely correct: the world does end on 21 December 2012.
But “the world ending” doesn’t just happen all at once like flipping the switch of existence.
No, it ends by falling apart, disintegrating, devolving into chaos. Slowly at first, but compounding in speed and severity. Still, fast by “end of the world” standards may very well be “almost imperceptibly slow at first” to the human frame of reference.
In short: the world started to end right when the Mayans said it would. We’re just starting to realize it now.
I’m right there with you. The last decade can be easily described as “things falling apart”
I believe I’m going to live far longer than anyone born before 2012, or I’m going to die after society collapses
It absolutely hurts me that that was 2012
I was going to suggest 1979 but the problem with the UK is it’s hard to find a date when it wasn’t already shite.
You can really see at the chosen year where the person making the meme comes from. Plenty of countries that would have plenty to say about the year.
If our mental state is reset as well, we would end up in a loop since we would continue reaching the same point we reset at.
The comic is saying that the overlords purposely threw in some very wacky conditions in 2015 just to see how we’d respond, so the idea we’re saying is that we’d like to go back to X year and go forward but without the wacky settings in the simulator.
We better be getting some bonus credits or something.
Oh maaaaan I’ve missed this meme every day I’ve not looked at it. Truly a modern classic of the genre x x
everyones giving their preference. I would take the 70’s just after the mandatory draft was out. Was basically when we had a chance to deal with global warming and you would not believe the dilapadated mansions some poor people lived in. Where they old and worn. yes. were they effin huge with a decent amount of property not far from cities. yes. also families were being supported on one income. oh and pensions were a thing.
Interesting times to see “The Illuminati” make a comeback.
Icke maintains that he is not an anti-Semite, and that he is criticizing not real Jews, but 12-foot-tall alien lizard people, many of whom just happen to be posing as Jews.
Nah thanks 2015 was horrible for me.
01-01-1997, and please make sure everyone remembers what happens till 2023
Just for some real tom fuckery it will be reset to unix time 0, aka 01-01-1970
1970*
Dang it. I always fuck that up.
Please dont. That would make me unborn.
Wait… On second thought. … Yes please.
People are stupid. If everyone remembered what happened, we would just have cryptocurrency and NFTs earlier. Nothing would actually be different
The answer is obviouse, try to invest in bitcoin
