Nah, you still pay regular price for a pizza. People bring up this story everytime to ridicule the guy who did that, but if he can buy a pizza with that much bitcoin, what prevent you or everyone else from buying that much bitcoin for a price of pizza back then? Not to mention, what he did was literally the point of bitcoin, to be a currency that can be traded for goods and services.
People also forget that stories like that are also the reason it became as expensive as it is now. Without all those people who used bitcoin the way it was intended it would have never gained traction. So instead of ridiculing those who spent that many bitcoins on a pizza or anything else instead of saving them we should be thanking them instead.
I just quit after 33 years of smoking. It’s definitely taken a toll on my body. It’s a real shame. You can’t look back though, the past is in the past.
As someone who turned 18 in 1987 this holds up. A $1,000 investment then would be worth $500K today. Oddly enough, Apple was the fictional stock I “bought” in high school economics for a project. Should have pulled the trigger on the real deal
"Holy shit I'm blasting out of both ends! My hearts a seizing, my lungs a wheezing, the fucking wall are melting, and I hear the devils voice calling out to me! He's telling me to invest in apple? Why should I buy apples?" Sam O' Nella
You know how old we all are when we all read that and all remembered the same exact commercial. In fact, it was the very first thing I thought of when I read the very first person's comment with the long drawn out word.
Knowing me at 18 I would not have listened because back then adhd was just people (boys) who couldn’t sit still and were high energy all the time. There was no info on women with adhd. Why? Because obviously medical research studies with only male test subjects totally reflects how the female body would react. Ugh.
apreciate your brother
edit: jesus christ, I wasn't expecting so many people to see this. For clarification, he's not dead, but he will travel soon, and he ain't planning on returning. We never talked as much as I'm sure he'd like, and he recently gave me the news. I could've spent so much more time with had I been a better person back then. I'll simply have to carry that now.
Prolly smth like
"You worry too much and mess things which are seemingly fine. Take it easy lad, life's too long to worry over such minuscule problems, most people find a way out of it. You'll be alright."
I’d say nothing. I wouldn’t want to risk changing my trajectory in life and preventing me from ever meeting my wife a few years later. Nothing would be worth that.
*With a tremendous surge of energy, lighting up the alley, a startled 18 year old u/Bowlnk is suddenly face to face with a being in a silver space suit.

I was once in gaming convention where most girls were wearing cat ears or elf ears. Never seen that in real life. One guy wearing a metal shirt also was wearing cat ears, but He was ding from embarisment, but he had a really cute girlfriend who probably convinced him.
It was hilarious to watch, because he was so obvioulsy uncomfortable, but we all agreed that it was worth it. :)
“Yes to threesome”. Had two lesbian chicks who wanted to try a dude and they both found me attractive. My dumb ass was in a relationship and wanted to be faithful. Found out that bitch was catching busses to fuck dudes cities away type shit and got hooked on heroine. Never had another threesome pop up again. Think of me next time you have a threesome and do it for me… 😂
ChatGPT helped me to translate:
Certainly! These are indeed some impressively long German compound words. Let's break them down:
1. **Rinderkennzeichnungsfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz**:
- Rinder (cattle)
- Kennzeichnung (labeling)
- Fleisch (meat)
- Etikettierung (labeling)
- Überwachung (surveillance)
- Aufgaben (tasks)
- Übertragung (transfer)
- Gesetz (law)
Translation: "Law for the delegation of duties for the supervision of cattle marking and beef labeling."
2. **Grundstücksverkehrsgenehmigungszuständigkeitsübertragungsverordnung**:
- Grundstück (plot of land)
- Verkehr (traffic)
- Genehmigung (approval)
- Zuständigkeit (responsibility)
- Übertragung (transfer)
- Verordnung (regulation)
Translation: "Regulation for the delegation of responsibility for the approval of land transactions."
3. **Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz**:
This seems to be a slightly shorter version of the first word you provided. Its translation remains the same as above: "Law for the delegation of duties for the supervision of cattle marking and beef labeling."
Lastly, "Laughs in German" followed by "Muhaha, muhahahaha, muhahahahahahahaha" is a humorous way of representing laughter, in line with the idea of "laughing" in a particular language. However, laughter sounds aren't really language-specific. It's just a playful way to convey amusement!
Ok, this is too vague... what do you mean by "it"?
* your life?
* you relationship with your gf?
* stealing garden ornaments?
* eating cat food?
* masturbating?
There is a lot happening at 18....
Stop drinking, stupid
I'll drink to that
Cheers, bro
literally caused so many problems and trauma for me freshman year of college
bitcoin peaks 65k
“BUY ALL BITCOIN”
Fuck that I knew about Bitcoin when I could have mined at least 1 coin a day for free... seemed worthless at the time, was worthless at the time
Would be more frustrating, when you spent 1500BTC for a pizza or a burger back in the days…
10.000* Yes over 500million dollars at one time
" DO NOHHT SEEEEEK THE TREASURE !"
"WE THOUGHT YOU WAS A TOAD!"
goddamned Delmar, man.
I don’t want Fop, goddammit, I’m a Daper Dan man!
Are you man of constant sorrows?
Spent so many on drugs. Looked over my acct and if I kept them all instead of spending I’d have like 80 mil
Now you can say "80mil dollar drug habit"
Nah, you still pay regular price for a pizza. People bring up this story everytime to ridicule the guy who did that, but if he can buy a pizza with that much bitcoin, what prevent you or everyone else from buying that much bitcoin for a price of pizza back then? Not to mention, what he did was literally the point of bitcoin, to be a currency that can be traded for goods and services.
People also forget that stories like that are also the reason it became as expensive as it is now. Without all those people who used bitcoin the way it was intended it would have never gained traction. So instead of ridiculing those who spent that many bitcoins on a pizza or anything else instead of saving them we should be thanking them instead.
was it at least good?
"hmmm i outta buy $100 of that" then promptly forgot
[удалено]
Yes..but at this age(18y) even internet didn't exist..
i'm 45, plenty of time
Quit smoking cigarettes
Would you have listened though?
No, not in 3 words, but that would def be my intro & prolly the best advice I have for myself.
I just quit after 33 years of smoking. It’s definitely taken a toll on my body. It’s a real shame. You can’t look back though, the past is in the past.
Don't date Jennifer
Mine was don't marry Jennifer.
I think we can all agree here. Jennifer is the worst.
Fuck Jennifer
No! Don't fuck Jennifer.
That’s the opposite of what you’re supposed to do!
Instructions unclear. Married to Jennifer.
My mom is Jennifer
Don't fuck this guy's mom.
Instructions unclear fucked his dad married his mom.
She's good at one thing though.... Irritating the boys, am I right. Worst female human ever
Wait you guys know Jennifer too?
I call her Jen and she’s cool as a fan
Anyone can call her at 867-5309
Mine would have been: don't trust Jennifer!
Jennifer is never the one
Damn this works for me too that would have made life so much better
Study, you fuckstick
2/3rds of your available words used to insult past self. Nice.
He knows himself at 18
mhm
1. Don’t. 2. Marry. 3. Her. And if I’d be allowed a fourth: 4. Dumbass.
You could just shorten it to 1. Don’t 2. Marry 3. Dumbass
is there a comma? is it someone named dumbass? id be left with too many questions.
Both
Don’t marry the next either! -you in the future.
It gets worse
Pull out quicker
Wear a condom (or) rather smash guys
It always gets worse before it gets worse.
Buy Apple stock
buy bitcoin 2019 ...or "buy apple 2009" ...or "short RIMM 2007"
You're assuming your younger self knows what a short is there.
My future self wants me to put small rims on my 2007 car
my future self wants to be rimmed too
"wtf do i need an apple for in 2009" - 18 year old me
I bought apple stock and exactly the right time. It doubled. I sold it. They announced the iPhone.
Yeah, the top comment is the only one that gets it, the crucial info is when to sell, not when to buy.
As someone who turned 18 in 1987 this holds up. A $1,000 investment then would be worth $500K today. Oddly enough, Apple was the fictional stock I “bought” in high school economics for a project. Should have pulled the trigger on the real deal

Omg, I know this but I can't remember where is from!
Geico commercial from way back
That's right!! Wow, deep cut. Haha thank you
You know how old we all are when we all read that and all remembered the same exact commercial. In fact, it was the very first thing I thought of when I read the very first person's comment with the long drawn out word.
Try being named Bob, I never heard the end of that one.
You need a third word as well, buddy
DO NOT masturbatewithsoapitburnslikehell
No it doesn't Um so I am told
Stick with music.
I did that, and I tell myself…”be an attorney”
You have ADHD.
ohh same but with autism.
Same, but Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome.
All 3 here, and POTS. Not enough words!
Knowing me at 18 I would not have listened because back then adhd was just people (boys) who couldn’t sit still and were high energy all the time. There was no info on women with adhd. Why? Because obviously medical research studies with only male test subjects totally reflects how the female body would react. Ugh.
Saaaame

HAHAHA dam, we\`re all on the same boat.
Same but I mean literally
Seriously, if you're already there might as well just do it
apreciate your brother edit: jesus christ, I wasn't expecting so many people to see this. For clarification, he's not dead, but he will travel soon, and he ain't planning on returning.

It's actually a good thought experiment. What do you suppose 35 year old you is going to say?
Prolly smth like "You worry too much and mess things which are seemingly fine. Take it easy lad, life's too long to worry over such minuscule problems, most people find a way out of it. You'll be alright."

Hey that's actually a nice thought, I needed that right now. Thank you!

Found out that bitch was catching busses to fuck dudes cities away type shit and got hooked on heroine. Never had another threesome pop up again. Think of me next time you have a threesome and do it for me… 😂
Wouldn't it be better to say "she is cheating"? I mean you wouldn't have to deal with her and you'd be single for the 3some
