If you could ask something to your future self...

..what would it be? There is no limit, btw. Ask him/her as many questions as you wish to.

By "future self" I mean, let's say, 8 to 10 years from now. Imagine he/she travelled through time and you met him/her. What would you like to know about your future?

I'd ask my 34-36 year old self what kind of career he(I) got and if things are going well for him(me). I wouldn't ask for many details. I'd just like to know if things will get better for me in the future.

What about you? What would you ask your future self?

Are things better for me?
Did I ever do anything with my life?
Did I ever achieve true happiness?
Are you happy with the way our life turned out?
What's motivated you to keep going for so long?
Did we ever get any better at drawing?
Did Oregairu end the way we wanted it to?

Are you truly happy with your life?

Did you get to do what you really wanted or did life throw you a curveball?

What sort of career do I get to have?

In all seriousness though, if my younger self could have asked my present self a question it would be, "How can I drag my dad to the doctor so he doesn't have a massive stroke?"

That's what I was going for.

In all seriousness, I'd be too scared to meet my future self.

I had a feeling you were parodying CC. Just wanted to make sure

Yeah, I feel you. It's best not knowing the future. Imagine you died rather young and knew exactly when you were gonna die and there was nothing you could change about it? Scary.

Who did you come back to kill?

What mistake are you here to prevent?

Did you kill Hitler yet?

You came to chat with me instead of fixing the 2016 election, huh?

The possibilities are endless...

"Why am I talking to myself?"

That would be the first question (among many) that I would ask.

If I saw my Future Self pointing a handgun at me (probably from asking so many questions), you bet your sweet bippy that I would run like hell.

Thought of some others:

"What is the current state of the TMNT franchise?"

"Is it worth buying a Switch?!

"Is Nintendo still making consoles?"

"Did my brother ever fall into the trap of getting married and having kids? And what about me/you?"

"Is Portugal's economy growing or did another crisis pop up?"
