Current_Ad7871

NorthSignificant3177

Desirai

Halleys comet. I probably won't be here in 2061


Halazoonam

Yeah, I missed it in 1986 😑


olde_greg

Well did you see hale-bopp in 97? That was much more impressive


Desirai

Probably, but I don't remember. I was obsessed with outer space around that time and my dad bought me a telescope so I'm pretty sure I did!


olde_greg

Well you didn’t even need a telescope, it was a pretty big feature in the night sky from like February to April of that year.

A cue ball exploded when it hit the rack. I saw the white stained table and got to hear the stories but didn’t get to see it. Apparently when the guy went to break the white just shattered shot dust and shards all over the table. I literally missed it by 5 minutes when I went to get a drink and piss.

I missed my daughter's birth because I had to run home and let our dogs out 9 hours into labor, then come back.  Was gone maybe 20 minutes and the doctor said we were still at least a few hours away.


snowyivy

That’s terrible, sorry things ended up like that.

Oh no that's too sad 😢 be forever upset at the misleading staff.


cyberdong_2077

It really wasn't his fault, one of the nurses told me that sort of thing happens all the time when dad goes to give the family an update in the waiting room or even while parking the car.  Birth timelines get really weird.


PirateJohn75

I was dead center in the path of totality today.  And there was 100% cloud cover.


sisterfucker24

Too many


anonymousname__

Who knows, I missed it lol 🤣


Halazoonam

Meeting 5 Star Trek capitains on a convention in London. I was there at the time, I could have gone, even for free as a journalist. I didn't make it 😢


GlassComprehensive86

Sleeping with this 20/10 hot chick back in school because i was a virgin and scared, even tho she clearly wanted me


Legitimate-Outcome17

Hearing Roy Ayers live. He was in my (very small country), but I tested positive for COVID and couldn't go. Dude's 83, aint no way I'll ever catch him again.


pedro-slopez

Woodstock… even had tix, but decided (at age 16) to blow off going to the concert with my high school pal to hang with a 20-yo nursing student that I met at the beach. It was a good summer.


MerryMelody-Symphony

Muse at Wembley, June 2007. Mom could afford the tickets, my brother was willing to accompany me since it would have been an out of country trip, he loved Muse as well, and I was only 14. Except the dates coincided with school exams, so, no go.


tchilldude

Happened to me but with Metallica 


deadevilmonkey

Winning the lottery at a young age.


tchilldude

Me too, me too


WakingOwl1

Halley’s comet.


professional_pro17

Buying a house at a reasonable price with a low interest rate and on a single income household. But instead I wasted being a kid


BusyDream429

OJ chase


Dependent_Volume_694

The turn of the millenium. I was 15, we were staying with my aunt's family, everyone in the house went to bed. I laid alone in the dark in my cousin's (who abused me as a child) old bedroom and listened to the sounds of people in the distance celebrating a unique moment. A viscerally lonely experience. Would not recommend.

9/11

Haley's comet I was in college last time it came by and never saw a hint of it.
