You can't tell me that you don't enjoy a good roll of duct tape.

For every good roll of duct tape, there’s a tide pod “challenge”

And what is the impact of this guy who always bets right? People would be betting on his bets.
To the point that as he got big the games might go the other way because he’s affected the timeline too much

In all honesty, and as bad as it sounds, this may not be the best move. The amount of technological advancement that came out of WW2 is astronomical. tRant may even cease to exist
That technology would have been developed anyway, although the pace and timeline of advances might change. To me, slowed advancement seems like a fair tradeoff for sparing the lives of millions of people and preventing the wholesale destruction of countries and continents. Choke the shite out of one little Kraut baby to avoid worldwide calamity. I'd even pencil a little mustache on him before he gets asphyxiated.

You don’t have to kill Hitler and risk incarceration. Just help the mf get into art school.

Go streaking in front of JFK's limousine in Dealey Plaza on Nov 23, 1963.

If I could pick the time and place, then June 28, 1914 on a certain street corner in Sarajevo and cause a big disturbance to get Gavrilo Princip‘s attention focused on me so he doesn’t see Archduke Ferdinand’s car drive by. Princip’s assassination of the Archduke’s sparked WWI. WWI led to WWII. You stop the assignation and the chain of events that followed, who knows what the world would look like now.

Just patent this before Howard Hughes Sr and you'll be very very wealthy.

I’d go back and prevent the slave trade.

Seriously. Talk about an overreaction for not getting into art school

Yes, I would be like Biff in Back to the Future, but I would do some good with my new found riches.

Only if I could bring 21st century firearms.

Why would you do this the day AFTER the assassination?
I know, random bump.

If I went back too far I would be obsessed with where I had to shite

Find Gavrillo in the bystanders and pummel him before he shoots.
