Oh, don’t we all wish’

Hysteria ramped up to eleven

Of course, the second-worst mistake is “future her” wearing that dress. Someone should come back and warn future her too.

I’d have a hard time deciding which of my mistakes was the worst.

Is she talking to the bride or the groom?

Relax. It’s probably just her mother.

Well, if you went through all the trouble to get back here I hope you brought a map that has the correct route I should take.

Didn’t work – she’s at the wrong wedding.

She could be stopping herself from making this mistake only to make an even bigger mistake somewhere or with someone else.

This change could result in other changes – perhaps a whole series of things/events – that could have global applications.

Didn’t Doc warn us of time paradoxes if we met ourself from a different time?

So…. did I build the Time Machine out of a DeLorean?

My marriage was the making of me and I’ve been happily married for 46+ years. Sure, we’ve had our ups and downs, but nothing serious.

The Past is gone , The Future is still to be known , Deal with it !

Wish I had known sooner….geeeesh, what a disaster!

Boy if I could only go back to my first engagement/marriage. I’d be a whole lot richer and be rid of the worst day .

Bleeb has recent experience with wedding gowns so this one should be a piece of cake.

Where was I when I needed me?

Mom told me that I was making a HUGE mistake when I married. 38 yrs. with him were the best of my life.

Spoiler alert!!!

Gee, I wish I could’ve warned me. But I probably wouldn’t have listened anyway.

Wonder why the time machine was built in a church?

Online I read about all the ex’s and glad I never bothered in the first place.

…ER looks at the groom and suddenly future ER and the time machine fade out slowly, one atom at a time.

Should have gone back to just before they met in the first place.

I would need to go all the way back to High School! That would fix all the problems!

Won’t work, you cannot change anything in the past that you know about, that just leads to a paradox.

One comedian said when you pledged “to death do you part” you didn’t realise you were setting a goal.

Hop in the Time Capsule, Bleeb! You can fix this, right? Right? :)

So we invent time travel in her near lifetime?

You could at least have waited until after the honeymoon.

The “WOMEN” sign on the bathroom was missing the W and I knew that meant it was a bad sign.

Let’s hope the groom got the message…

So sad ;-;

I guess the fact that this scenario doesn’t happen is proof that we’ll never invent time travel.
