    The question is kind of self-deafeating. Doing anything that will result in absolutely no concequences is … doing nothing.

    Even if you could do stuff and then turn back time, you couldn’t even remember it as that would be a concequence.

    No consequences, positive or negative? I think I’ll just stay on the sofa.

    What even is the point? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    kill a couple thousand politicians, but try to spare any under the age of 45. I may or may not agree with their views, but at least they’ll be a part of the future they’re tryna make.

    torture some billionaires to gain access to their company payroll, so I can cut their CEOs pay and raise their entry-level workers’ pay. Hell, I’ll raise the payrates of everyone under them, they all deserve it more than a CEO.

    I’d prolly only have enough time to do that to one company tho, so I’d probably choose Amazon as priority one.

    I totally get where people are going with eliminating dictators and what not, but knowing myself as well as I do… yeah, you’d probably find me down at the Chinese buffet.

    It sounds like a movie, but I can’t quite put my finger on which one. I’m going to have to purge some of my old thoughts and get back to you on this one.

    The question becomes more interesting when you consider that the scenario doesn’t give you infinite power to do anything, just no consequences for what you do. I mean yea if you stole a million dollars, you would face no consequences, but realistically speaking, could you steal a million dollars even if you tried? Some other people here suggested murdering politicians (which is pretty fucked up tbh) but it’s quite likely you’d never even get the chance to do this within 24 hours, especially considering many politicians have security people.

    I’m really trying to rack my brain for the most impactful thing I could even do within 24 hours, without consequences. One idea would be to loan as much money as I possibly could and transfer all the money somewhere else, assuming the debt is cancelled at the end of the 24 hours as it is a “consequence”.

    I wouldn’t (and probably couldn’t) do anything more extreme than that. The consequences is not what is holding me back from being a murderer 😅, that’s just my moral compass.

      For fun… no consequences. So the security detail can’t touch you… and any area effect weapon can’t either. Like in the movies. So one big boom. Of course no consequences might also count for the target I guess. Lol.

      I’m not sure if I could get anywhere and back. Woge I own a gun and you have allowed me to get it on a plane, but that day would expire before I get home and now I have a gun that I am taking through airports and customs.

      Assuming the strict definition of “no consequences”, anything we did would be reset, since it implies consequence.

      Maybe redefine the issue as “no negative consequences”.

        If you’re REALLY strict, then “retaining the memory of it happening” is a consequence. So maybe this already happened under the strict setting, but none of us remember it.

          Several years ago, I went under the knife and the whole day from the point they put me under is a total blank. It’s unsettling because I am told I carried on conversations with the doctor, family members, etc. after initially coming to from anaesthesia, but it’s only starting the following morning when I woke up in a regular hospital bed that I could start remembering again.

      Yeah if the law (or fear of god) is the only thing that prevents one from doing horrible things, then they’re probably not the most balanced person to begin with.

    Maybe eating the spiciest food ever all day long, chicken wings dipped in Carolina reaper paste. Delicious hotness, without fear of the aftermath.

    Realistically: Steal every catalytic converter from every nearby truck and SUV, melt them down and sell them for like $100,000

    If there’s a security stand down: Bust into airports and destroy corporate jets.

    If anything is possible: Vladimir Putin. Benjamin Netanyahu. Former and current CEOs

    Man, I dunno. Probably something crazy like allow myself to be vulnerable and express my true emotions.

    Wait what happens if I do something that like inherently has consequences like cutting off my arm? Does it grow back after the 24 hours are up?
