I beg to differ on both counts.
1) YOU missed your chance to get really drunk with ME. 2) Father Time does know his place, taking orders from me. So time travel won't happen, it's too dangerous.

I wasn't specifically saying you had missed your chance: it was a plural "you". I was directing it to all the people that didn't go out anywhere on Saturday! Besides, you saw what I was like last night!
Oh, and if there is no time travel, we shall rebel against your rule of Father Time!
(Incidentally, in the Chronicles of Narnia, Father Time is really big and made of stone and asleep. So I think you're lying about the whole him taking orders from you; he can't if he's asleep.)

Who do you think told him to go to sleep? Thanks for the hypnotism lessons Derren Brown.

I think if I actually went back in time and met myself, I'd just think i'd stumbled in front of a mirror.
Before I gave myself a FOOT OF JUSTICE!!!
Just for the sheer hell of it!

If I went back in time and met myself, I'd probably just end up getting in a fight or something.
Not to worry though, I know all my moves and weak points! I won't stand a chance...
Oh, wait. Crap

I'd make out with myself.

I would probably pat myself on the head, and he me. Then we would go up a cliff, enjoy the view, then throw ourselves off it together, holding hands until the very end. Either that, or sing the Drunken Irish Dad song in a pub, with him as Peter and me as Irish Dad 'cause I've had more practise with the voice.
'Well, he doesn't smell of Irish Spring/ And he never taught/ Me anything...'
'But all the women catch the clap/ From yer Drunken Irish Dad/ Hey!/
...
Or maybe we'd take to those Mean Streets, delivering plagiarized Feet of Justice(tm) to anyone who looks vaguely unjusticey! Team Attack! DIVINE TWIN FEET OF SWIRLING BLOSSOM JUSTICE++! It's super effective! Generic Punk whited out! Good work, Past Me! Not bad, Future Me! Time to Split!
At which point casuality breaks down.

Love how you trademark the foot o' justice!
And surely one would be dishing out the justice while the other you threw people around, especially off of lifts!
"Haha! Meet the powers of my old friend, Gravity!"

How far back in time are you lot all going?
I hope it's not when you're all kids, otherwise you'll all become very disturbed individuals.... Oh, wait... Never mind.
What's the point in going back in time on your lifeline, anyway? You already know what happens to you, so you'd only live out the same boring stuff. (Not that I'm saying your life is boring... well I am. [I'm getting rather distracted by my wee sister now!])
Anyway, I'd rather go somewhere... sorry, somewhen... where I can experience past cultures. It'd be pretty cool. Meet Shakespeare, or Mary Queen of Scots....

If I went back when I was a kid, I could steal everyone's jokes and make myself cooler!
Plus I'd tell myself to get more exercise and not be such a fat kid!

I suppose that would be a good idea, unless your mum found out about the jokes you were telling yourself. Then she'd punish your younger self. And if you changed anything about yourself in the past, you wouldn't be as wonderful as you are now. (Ha, ha, cough.)
But I think Joe, Cat and Stewart's idea would be very worrying for, say, their five year old selves.... I'm shuddering just thinking about it!

No worries. Any diabolical plans of giving Little Stewart the heads-up on future political happenings (thus giving him the necessary information to become a messiah-esque prophet) would be shot down in flames by my five-second attention span. No sooner had I related my plans, he went back to playing with his train set on the stairs and forgot all about it! DAMN! HOISTED UPON MY OWN PETARD! (Also Stolen!)

Awww! You used to have a wee train set! (Unless you tampered with time...)
Why didn't you just bury a time capsule with all the information and leave a map somewhere where you knew you wouldn't look until you were older but also where your mum and dad wouldn't find it? That way you could still have been the prophet, etc. You'd also have a lot more money than the government at this point in time!
But I don't see why you all want to change history. It would be more fun just to observe it. You'd get into less trouble.
As for going back to meet yourself, that would mean your younger self would remember it and thus you would when you went back in time. So you would already know what you did when you went back in time. So that would be a waste of time. Or not as the case may be.
Also, if you went back in time and met yourself, you wouldn't know that till you had been, then the memories would come rushing back and your brain wouldn't be able to take it so you would have a stroke... but they wouldn't..... I'm going to stop there before it gets confusing.

I'd love to make out with my five year old self. He was so small and fat and curly and english. More underage cushion for the pushin.
