Augmenting the past

[Nathan, First Tiger]

I found this to be a fun idea.

A woman has photoshopped herself into photos with her mother when she was the same age. Did a nice job.

creepy...but cool

[Cheryl has hopes her life will calm down soonish]

that woman has talent
and she makes a good point - what were our parents really like when they were younger? if we think about interacting with them at the same age, it's easier to get to know them

plus, what a great mechanism to enable time travel - one of you must write that story!

Very cool, Nathan. Makes me wonder, though. Is it Photoshop or is it Time Travel? Took considerable talent either way. Rather than meeting parents as childhood peers, I think I'd opt for a little older, knowing what we know now. Might be some wisdom to share and some laughs, tales of the past and future. I could tell them a few stories from my high school or college days without (hopefully) getting grounded.

I gotta echo Lincoln's first couple of words, creepy. I have no desire to do such a thing since i havent spoken to my father for nearly 3 decades and i certainly dont want to be photoshopping myself with a young mum ughhh. But i appreciate its something some people would live for some emotional or bonding reason...think incan understand. Just not for me.
