  1. @MrAndrewD This one hits hard. My variant :

    "Your dad lives at this address, he has been looking for you, go meet him before it's too late."

  2. Your dad will never rescue you. He will come back when you need less help, sadly.

    Your mum does love you and want you it's just she's just as emotionally weird as you are

    Your internet friends are real and they will get you to university - don't worry so much about the grades.

    What you're really good at doesn't have a university subject but the closest that exists is "cybernetics" - don't worry about the prestige of the uni, focus on enjoying the studies.

  3. You are better than you think for math stuff, you have the intuition for it.

    Therapy is alright, look for it, it will actually help!

  4. What she is doing to you is called 'sexual harrassment'. It can happen to dudes, and it can be perpetrated by chicks. This is not normal. You are not the one with the problem for not liking it. Don't let the school principal gaslight you into being too embarrassed to talk about it.

    Tell your mother, you KNOW she'll be at your side.

    Go to the police. Take the school to court if need be. Ruin that bitch's life, because the alternative is taking 10 years to recover and never really FULLY recovering.

  5. Don't let those uninspired and uncaring highschool math teachers turn you away from math.

  6. Hey, kid! Take some photos that document your city, and your life, and not just landscapes and "pretty" pictures.

    Oh, and get your cassette recorder, that you've had since you were six, and record the band you play in.

    And record the voices of your Dad and other people who will soon pass away, because you won't be able to remember what they sounded like for more than a few years.

  7. A hot guy who looks like a cross between Billy Idol and David Bowie will visit you at work when you are 19 years old. You know him, and you thought you'd never see him again. DO NOT tell him "don't be a stranger!" Get on his motorcycle, tell your boss to bite you, and ride into the sunset.

  8. I know it sounds nuts, but just try the pineapple & Canadian bacon pizza.

    If you don’t love it, please forward this DM to that other guy with the same name. Thanks.

  9. Elon Musk is nothing more than a sociopath who had a horrible father and is trying desperately to show everyone that he matters, so he takes credit for everything he can. Don’t get on the bandwagon. He’s not a Harriman … he’s just pathetic … and a racist.

  10. In October 79 you need a break from Pompeii. Take the ferry across the bay to Misenum.

    Watch the fireworks with Pliny the Younger or, if you’re feeling up to it, join Pliny the Elder’s rescue fleet.

    Be sure to pack your toothbrush.

  11. Me: I know you like #scifi but I promise you're going to have very different opinions about authors like Heinlein, Piers Anthony, and a bunch of others.

    Him: Oh no! What about Asimov?

    Me: I think he's OK. Probably.

    Him: Whew! So why am I going to see those guys differently?

    Me: You know what? Just read this. *Sends Ann Leckie novel from the future*

  12. Look, I remember being you. You're not going to listen to the most important things I want to tell you. Wanna play some video games?

  13. Younger me, "The problem is, old me, you have no dirt under your fingernails, rips in your jeans, and when was the last time you ate a worm on a dare?

  14. Me: Look, you have some problems, like it's hard to focus, hard to stay on task, hard to inhibit the ol' impulses...

    Him: But I grow out of that?

    Me: ... let's talk about new wave music.

  15. You're not that bad at math, really. You just avoid it because it's not as easy as verbal stuff.
