[ARCHIVED THREAD] - If you could talk to a dead person, who would it be? (Page 1 of 3)

Posted: 1/15/2021 9:33:01 PM EDT

Now rules are you have 30 min in your living room alone with this person. If it is someone from way back when, they already know all that has happened with you and the state of the world. But, the catch is, no one believes you if ya tell them. You just get their insight and knowledge. 30 minutes.

I understand if you could call back your grandfather, or even your great great grandfather for wisdom. But, if you had one opportunity, would you do that for a family member or a historical figure?

Yep, I am drinking and will just leave it here.

Someone I met just before they died in an accident. I would ask him what exactly happened.

Do they have to tell me the truth? If so Ill chat with Alek Hidell. If not then I'll talk to my Grandmother.

I guess my wife. I'd ask her if she suffered in the accident. Did she see Mom? I'd say I don't remember anything and tell her that her/Moms DUI killer got 18 years total.

My dad told me for years, especially on his deathbed, that we would see some crazy unrest in the USA... It's looking like the old man was right... I wish I could talk to him one last time...

Thomas Jefferson

Two. One personal, one because politics.

My dad to ask him why he decided to commit suicide a few years ago. (Granted, he was a bit of a drunkard his whole live. Hardly worked, had substance abuse problems, but he was my father goddamn it.)

Karl Marx. I want to know how he feels about the modern "Interpretations" of his ideals by countries such as the USSR, North Korea, and China. I haven't read the entire Communist Manifesto (I skimmed it) but AFAIK the whole idea of Communism was to be to end up in a supposed perfect world, for the ideal, for the people. Everyone works together. Not some totalitarian dictatorship where one guy rules with absolute power (Stalin, Mao, Kim dynasty) and anyone who questions him is un-personed.

My grandmom ... I told her one day jokingly when she was still with us by the way when she left if she would try to come back to me in a dream or something and tell me what are the upcoming winning lottery numbers are.

I remember her telling me I don’t think they will let me do that.

So my question is ...

Well did you even try ???
