Ignoring all guaranteed money-making schemes:
To my primary school self: Talk more!!! And do your bloody homework. And get a work ethic! Oh, and when you're 9, a band called Rage Against The Machine (try and listen to them beforehand) will come to Oxford, make sure you go and see them, despite you only being 9. Do it by any means possible.
To my initial secondary school self: Are you talking a lot yet? If not, TALK YOU BASTARD!!! Oh, and do not look at porn, you'll get caught, and you have an addictive personality. And actually do your homework the day it's set, and avoid your Xbox/PC games at all cost. And start going to gigs. And grow your hair, it becomes awesome and curly.
To my latter secondary school self: Ask her out! You know who I mean...
To my 6th Form self: DO NOT PICK FURTHER MATHS! It's bloody hard and you'll fail miserably. Or Chemistry. Pick Music Tech instead, it's fun and you'll meet a cool dude at college. And talk more in Geography!!! And don't skip lessons!
And when you go to Reading, stay with Becky-it'll mean you'll be at the front for Rage.
To my post 6th Form self: Tristan will get a girlfriend (I know! Shocking!); avoid being friends with her, and make sure Liam does the same. In this reality, she dumps him after a couple of months, quickly moves onto someone else, and will also like you and Liam at the same time. Liam and her get friendly, you get angry and do stupid/friendship breaking things. It's best for you and Liam to just avoid her. Or kill her...with a stake...
Oh, and tell people you're not going to work, asap! Fool!

Oh my fucking God... my name is Brad... and I was going to say the exact same things, but minus the "chicks" and replaced with this certain girl...Jumping_Over_Fences said:
Dear Atticus,
ASK HER OUT, DAMMIT! You'll regret not doing so for the rest of your life.
From you.
PS: I know, right? I'm you. Cool.

When "That Girl" asks if you'd like to see the trick she can do with her tongue, don't make a Yoshi reference, let her show you FFS.
Dear Lex,
Go to Rookwood much earlier instead of wasting three years of your life (and attempting suicide seven times) in that hellhole in Salisbury.
Don't take R.S.
Find The Escapist earlier.
Study harder.
Don't go out with that crazy ***** Nicole.
Don't eat so much, and be more active. Find Ohdokwan earlier.
Don't shave your head; you will look like a prick. Grow those locks out.
Start learning the guitar instead of the piano.
And, for God's sakes, don't tell anyone that you were born Jewish.
Best wishes for the future (hopefully it doesn't turn out as crap as this one),
You.
There's so much more, but I think that'll do for thread purposes.

this letter is from the future you but im not gonna tell you any finacial secrets that will make you rich HAHA! in your face lol
1) Shes fucking crazy, don't do it.
2) You won't listen to me anyways. Good luck. It won't turn out like you want, but it will be okay.
3)Think it through. I mean, really? You know this can only end poorly.
4) Don't get too emotionally invested, and you absolutely won't regret it. It's okay to be a little human.
5) Stop thinking. Stop trying to be the nice guy. Fuck what everyone says. This will work out,and if you don't immediately go for broke, your will regret it for the rest of your life.
You will know what I mean in time.
P.S. When you leave the tea shop expecting to go get food from the creemee stand, drive. Don't get sidetracked, and cut your walk down to the elementary school and back. Get the pizza to go. You will need that time.

"Dear me, I'm glad you've found this because this is my only shot. An alien invasion will commence in about 2 days time and only you manage to survive it with a machine that can only send paper back in time for some reason. To prevent your fate you must alert the world authorities and prepare by impregnating as many women as possible to raise an army to fight the aliens!
The fate of the world rests with you.
PS. The cake is a lie. You'll know."
