What would you do if you were stuck in a time loop like in the movie Groundhog Day where you relived the same day over and over again?

[Still-alive]

You are aware this is happening but everyone else just acts like normal like its not happening at all.

the only clue you're given is 'become a better person' in order to break the loop. you're not told how to do that at all. thats all you're given

[CrazyGirl2]

Oh wow, so many movies did this plot. I suppose I would do exactly what everyone did in all of those movies… go through an learn when everything happens in town, then start learning musical instruments, eventually I’d grow so lonely, despair would set in, I’d “end” myself in every possible way, then I suppose my psyche would eventually accept the eternal nature of my existence in this personal hell.

[Still-alive]

do you think you could meet the challenge of "become a better person?" like in the movie?

[CrazyGirl2]

Absolutely! I’m good positive person with the awareness to better myself, but if that happened to ME, I might not know physics, but I do know enough to know that if it’s happening to the real me, in the real universe, then some kind of temporal anomaly has opened in proximity to our planet, and regardless how it happened I am stuck in that loop for all of eternity!

[CrazyGirl2]

Precisely because I don’t know anything about physics.

[Still-alive]

well good if you can meet the challenge you will successfully escape the loop. :)

[CrazyGirl2]

I guess so… (as long as the rules you created for this world allow me to learn something and grow from it, I’ll be out in no time) 😚😉

[purplepoppy]

cyclonic temporal pockets are caused by disturbances in gravity flow. Like eddies forming in the Time river. They've nothing to do with to your behaviour that's just superstitious nonsense.
Most people's lives are so mundane they don't realise they're in one.

[FinalFantasyBro]

I would seriously get annoyed reliving the same day over and over again, I figured out a way to break this infinity loop.

[Still-alive]

think you could 'become a better person'?

[FinalFantasyBro]

I don't really need to become a better person most people already say I am a good person.

[Still-alive]

hmm ok you might be stuck in the loop then

[FinalFantasyBro]

I am dragging you in their with me, if I forced to suffer I rather bring another person down with me.

[slatyb]

I would have as much sex as possible with Andie MacDowell. What else?

[Still-alive]

if she lets you :P

[slatyb]

If she's unwilling, then it's not possible. Love that movie.

[Still-alive]

of course you can do what he did and figure her out everytime the day resets

[slatyb]

It would be worth it.

[Aerissa_Jade]

Have you ever seen Happy Death day? I could totally see myself at that phase where she just says, screw cloths and goes walking about the college campus in the buff.

I'd likely do what they do in the shows, few loops where you goof off, mess around and figure it is pointless but then eventually trying to do whatever it takes to get out of it.

[dustybiker]

I prefer the xfiles version. “Monday”. The bank kept exploding till they finally figured it out. Moral = Keep trying till you work it out.
(you’re really working the mind this week lol)

[Still-alive]

lol thanks. well i really love this movie a lot. i relate to it :)

[goaded]

Not the Stargate SG-1 episode, or the Buffy episode? :)

The other moral is that in reality you only get one go at it; make it count.

[dustybiker]

@goaded There are a number of them aren’t there? lol. And very true.

[Lyndsielee666]

Don’t do this to me. I have full blown panic attacks thinking about the Mandela effect.

[Still-alive]

*tosses snowballs at you* :P

[DonkeyDan]

For some people its just everyday life, same shit different day lol
Yeah I'd meet the challenge but probably mess with a load of peiple along the way.

[Gal67]

I'd probably eventually end up going insane, because I wouldn't be clever enough to figure out a way to escape from it.

[Still-alive]

You don’t think you could rise the the ‘become a better person’ challenge?

[Gal67]

I've seen the film, more than once already, and I don't think at any point in time does it dawn upon him that in trying to become a better person he'll find the way out. It seems to me that he just comes to the conclusion that since he's stuck there he may as well spend the day productively and try to enjoy it.
Under such circumstances, I'd become a far worse person. That wouldn't be my intention, but that's what would happen. The main character is invulnerable, because even death can't touch him, so his actions, good or bad, have zero consequences in the long run, because there is no "long run", waking up as he does in the same bed at the same time on the same day every morning.

[Still-alive]

Yeah thats the movie but in my question/scenario you do get that clue. You’re just not told how to go about it

[Gal67]

In that case I would need more information.

[Still-alive]

You aren’t given any in this scenario

[Gal67]

Then I'll be stuck there forever.

[menina]

I would analyze my behavior and try to understand what was wrong. Then I could see what I could do to become a better person.

[nice-girl]

Do what he did probably. And do some crazy stuff just to get out of boredom.

[Desconhecida]

Before I become a better person I'd be very bad since I'd know the next day everything would go back to the same way.

[admles]

I'd be going to BJJ class every day and just getting better and better lol

I'd work on all aspects of my BJJ, and get to wake up the next day injury free

[Surely]

Probably most of the things that Bill Murray did. Since you wouldn’t be responsible because it would undo whatever you did.

[llorando]

I'd just make the best of it as I try to become a better person.

[Likes2drive]

Probably what he did mostly but I might sleep in longer until I figure it out

[Likes2drive]

12:01 was another movie like that which was pretty good also

[whosnumber1]

it would be ok because I'd work it that I would have sex with Andie MacDowell every single day

[awkward_author]

I would spend time figuring out how to do that and enjoy the endless second chances I'll receive in the meantime.

[XXblack88]

I would get angry after awhile.

[Still-alive]

think you could 'become a better person'?

[XXblack88]

Maybe

[Still-alive]

How do you think you would do that?

[xJayleenx]

I might honestly kill myself lol

[Still-alive]

yeah that doesn't work lol. he does it several times in the movie :P

[xJayleenx]

Well damn XD

[xJayleenx]

Then I’d try to be a better person

[Still-alive]

i'm sure you'll succeed :)

[NathanDavis]

I could save lives

[Still-alive]

you see the movie?

[NathanDavis]

nope

[Still-alive]

hmm ok well its a great movie

but yea Bill Murray tries to save a homeless man but despite everything he still can't save him.

[NathanDavis]

I thought that maybe... I could wait for the night of that day and then check the regional news, and see where they had car crash accidents, gas leak explosions? people who had heart attacks? stuff like that...

then I could just do more to prevent those, no?

[Still-alive]

well he does try hard. but he dies of.. i believe a hard attack or stroke.

[NathanDavis]

I would not try hard... I would try smarter, and eat healthier, so I don't die in the process

[Still-alive]

ok he tries smarter too lol...

[Still-alive]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NjNOAncIlI

here's the scenes with the homeless guy

[NathanDavis]

I would be genuine at it... even if I didn't succeed, I would try my best, because I care... good intentions, when genuine... make people better

if whatever higher power that has put this loop in place does not recognize it, so be it... I am still going to try and save lives, even if I die... because that's the right thing to do, given the chance

[Still-alive]

"I would be genuine at it... even if I didn't succeed, I would try my best, because I care... good intentions, when genuine"

yes at the end of the day thats all we can do. give it our earnest genuine try. intentions do matter

[NathanDavis]

being a better person is about doing better for others, without expecting something in return so yeah... will try to save lives anyway

[zagor]

Lately I feel exactly like that.

[captain_voidwalker]

Catch up on sleep.
