(12,008 posts)You have a time machine!?!?! Oh, man, I SO will go back in time, get a job at a department store and roll my eyes at a customer, if you let me use it for other things, or at least don't make me come back between shifts.
In my time trying to get that job at Sears (in my mind, it's Sears), I would start courting young 80's lady, and I would take her on a date to see Back to the Future on its opening night. Throughout the entire film, I'd softly mutter every single line. When questioned about this, I'd say, "I'm from the future, baby."
This would be about all I could do, since, as a kid in the 80's, I wouldn't actually remember much about current events to know what happened then, but the movie thing would be awesome. If it's ok with you, I'd like to hold the eye rolling off until after the movie, just in case the customer I roll my eyes at is like my date's mom or something, because then she might call the date off, and I'd have to start the whole process again, which is totally not worth it.
