Hypothetical time travel question

If you where offered a single one way trip, that could be used to go to any place and time past or future. but with absolutely zero chance of ever returning. would you take it? where would you go and why?

I'd go back to the day my mom was pregnant with me so I could give her a STRONG ROUGH kick in her bloated tummy for forcing me into existence.

probably back to the industrial revolution to put an end to it and all the people involved
or maybe back to the agricultural revolution to put an end to that
or maybe back to the origin point (i.e. "big bang" or what-have-you)

It depends. Is this one of those time travels where you end up in your past body, essentially letting me redo my life, or is it the type where two me's would exist at the same time? I'd do the former, I wouldn't do the latter. The "no chance of return" is the deal breaker for me. There's no time period in the past I would like enough to do that and I'm not rolling the dice on the future being any better.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

Nope, like shroomslip said, no return is a deal breaker. I'd love to see the machine though.

Born is the 50's experience Woodstock and a time of legal psychedelics. Live in a time where people aren't consumed by technology. Although I would preferably have the same mindset as I do now. I don't want to fall into that heavily Christian shit that was going on around that time

But it says you have zero chance of ever returning to this time period. That means when you relive your life, you would've died by now. Just go kick your mom if it's that important to you, not worth dying over.

Examined in another way, the United States has 100,000 more people incarcerated for nonviolent drug offenses than all the countries of the European Union combined, despite the fact that the European Union has 100 million more citizens.

After a little more pondering there are a few key points in history I would try to change. For instance I would have assasinated ben Franklin.
