See this is an alt universe where I post about it instead of genuinegirly...

What would you do/say to your alt self?

Would you kill them all if it gave you god like power?

What if you were the only one who knew and who had met your alt self? And he warned you something bad was going to happen.

Is this supposed to be about the infinite universes theory, that if there is a black and white decision, in one universe, it went one way, and in the other it went differently?

I think I'd be curious to ask what I'd done differently - and how it turned out. Perhaps with an initial focus on some parties/girls I encountered in my late teens.

(I'm assuming that this is a thought bubble thing BTW. We're looking at the clouds and wondering - not engaging our skeptical/logical side)

With every decision, reality bifrucates. There is an alternate reality for every choice made in every life. Someplace, there is a universe where you took that other path... and life there is different.

In one of those realities I married when I was entirely too young. In another, I am already finished with my PhD. So many choices made in life, major and minor... the sheer number of possible universes - created by my decisions alone - is staggering.

If there are alternate universes with alternate selves who made alternate choices they would not be you, they cant be. The choices & decisions you've made in this life are what make you who you are, any deviation and your true self will cease to be.

You can clone your pet now but that clone can never be your original pet even though their DNA may be identical. The only possible way to recreate the original is to recreate their entire life structure with seems highly unlikely...........
