If you could have a conversation with anyone in the world, who would it be?

[Phill 1,287]

I would ask Michael Jackson tons of questions about his creative process 

[Jaxsie (Inactive) 1,343]

All of the options! Okay, okay, let's see...

 

-- Ayn Rand. Not only do I love her books; she is an exceptional intellectual. I'd be interested to know what she thinks about the current affairs of the world. A lot of what she predicted and warned 60 years ago has come to pass.

 

-- Nicoli Tesla. There is so many questions that I'd want to ask him. He is one of most influential scientists of the 21st century that many never heard of -- or only heard in passing. It's a shame. Without him our modern luxuries would have never existed. Yet, all his work is accredited to other people... -_- Also, Thomas Edison was a jerk.

-- Plato, Socrates, Aristotle etc. I really enjoy learning about philosophy -- so talking to some of the greats would be amazing. Heck, I probably won't be able to keep up with it all, lol, but just hearing what they would have to say would be fascinating! xD

 

-- Malcolm X. He was such a brilliant man, whether you agreed with everything he said or not; talking to him would be a no-brainer for me. I'd be especially interested in his thoughts on race relations in the US today.

 

-- Lauryn Hill. She is not only an gifted lyricist; the way we see the world is exactly the same. I'd want to have lunch and just talk -- about anything. I'd be interested to know how she feels about the current state of the music industry and how she feels about her treatment and the false light created by the media.

 

There's more but I'll stop here

It'll probably be Rob Swire, he's a member of Pendulum and Knife Party.

[ArDee 101]

- Ayrton Senna. One of the most iconic racing drivers in history, legendary for his sheer skill and ruthless driving style. I'd ask him what he thinks of Michael Schumacher (the greatest driver rivalry that could have been), and also what he thinks of the downward spiral Formula One has gone into in recent years.

 

- Carl Sagan. I've always loved astronomy and the idea of interplanetary and interstellar exploration, and I think a conversation with him would be extremely enlightening in that regard.

 

- Rob Thomas. Lead singer for Matchbox Twenty. Do I even need another reason? It's Rob Thomas.

 

- Gene Roddenberry, Joss Whedon, Stan Lee. All three have made such a tremendous impact in popular culture, especially modern nerd culture (Star Trek; Firefly,  Buffy; Marvel Comics, respectively) and I think they'd be very interesting to meet and discuss their creations with. Especially Roddenberry.

 

- Hayao Miyazaki, Don Bluth, Bill Watterson. (Studio Ghibli; various animations; Calvin & Hobbes.)

 

- Henry Ford.

Benito Mussolini. I'm a history buff, especially for WW2, but I can't really find much about Il Duce that isn't just the rehashing of the same old information. I would love to pick the guys brain. Also if this were a going back in time scenario, I would probably warn him not to go along with Hitlers shenanigans.

[Lord Bradley 1,319]

I... Dont know. There's many i would like to talk to, but not really at the sime time. I would mess up my words, for example. Not because i'm talking to that person, but because i generally mess up words due to insanely fast speaking.

 

Though, i suppose i would pick John De Lancie. Would make for a decent conversation.

[DageNox 109]

I'd like to talk to Andrew Hussie probably and Lauren Faust, and probably the the people who made Gravity Falls, Steven Universe and Rick and Morty.

 

[Randimaxis 8,664]

I would want to speak with my spiritual hero: Jim Henson.

 

We could discuss how children's entertainment has changed since his days, probably also lamenting the direction his Muppets have taken since his passing.  I'd also love to ask what his opinion is on MLP:FiM; I think he'd like it, as it reflects many of the values he demonstrated in his shows.  Plus, I'd love to pick his brain about characters like Gonzo, Kermit and Ernie, to name but a few.

 

God help us if he had a guitar; we'd NEVER stop singing.

 

I miss you, Jim.  

[Sunset's Shimmer 394]

Karl Marx and Constantine Stanislavsky.

[Kivil 1,721]

Alan fucking Rickman I'd loe to hear his deep sexy voice! I just love his voice so much

[RavenholmZombie 1,330]

Hmm... I'm tied between Bernie Sanders, the Dali Lama, and Gabriel Iglasias.

[Tanner 186]

Myself!... it counts.

 

Then I'd probably murder myself for being too quiet.

[SilyGeny 369]

Gosh the decisions...

but prooobably

 

Melanie Martinez: I would love to talk to her about how does she writes her songs, where does she gets her ideas, what does she thinks of the pop music nowadays, what does she thinks about basically the modern society! I know it's dumb but I really think If I could talk to her I could have a deep and long conversation

[Side Bird 566]

I'd wanna talk to Hawkings and Hitler at the same time.

[MLPFanatic34 3,241]

Probably either Keanu Reeves or Tim Burton.

[N.W. 3,619]

Mikhail Timofeyevich Kalashnikov

[silvadel 1,393]

Hmm -- what comes to mind is talking to Abe Lincoln and warn him about the assassination at Ford's Theater by John Wilkes Booth.  Show him history books and such about it, such that it never happens, then see how the world changes.

[El Duderino 881]

Dave Grohl, from the Foo Fighter. He seems like a really cool guy to just chill with. I would also love to talk to Vincent Van Gogh. I love his art and his life story is a sad one, so it would be neat to talk to him. Johnny Cash too. Or Winston Churchill. Oh man, this is a hard question...

[Stardust* 3,302]

Charles Dickens, Mozart, Mark Twain, Shakespeare, Leonardo di Vinci, Aristotle, Jesus, and my Aunt Sunny just one last time. That about sums up my list. 

[RavenholmZombie 1,330]

I have some more people I'd like to have a conversation with!

• Queen Elizabeth II
• George Washington
• Abraham Lincoln
• Stalin
• Winston Churchill
• Shigeru Miyamoto.
• Bill Burr

[gamecubeguy214 2,514]

I talk to my best friend all the time, so I wouldn't have to say him, I would probably talk to, I wish PAC-MAN, but you say in the world, so probably John Cena I have no idea. The guy from Blues Clues The person who drew Sanic god, I have no idea.

[luftschloss 833]

I'd want to talk to Albert Einstein- generic answer, but I'm truly interested in what his last words meant.

^{_{Plus he'd also just be AMAZING TO MEET.}}

[Redacted321 105]

I feel like such a bloody nerd but i'd talk to Albert Einstein, Nikola Tesla and Erwin Schrödinger first before moving onto Adolf Hitler then Abraham Lincoln . There are others i have a passing interest in meeting but these guys are at the top of my list.

[luftschloss 833]

Stephen Hawking! Marie Curie! Aristotle! Nikola Tesla! MICHAEL FARADAY! HUMPHREY DAVY! NIELS BOHR! GREGOR MENDEL! ANTOINE LAVOISIER!

*squee*
