Because it's that time of year, there have been some interesting discussions, pro and con, about Capra's It's a Wonderful Life. It's possible that everyone, at some time or other, has thought "what if I had never been born ? What really might have been different if I had not been there." NOT talking children that would not be, or marriages that would not have happened or not being the fireman or doctor that saved a life but things that seem minor but perhaps changed the course of someone's life. This may be too personal a topic and people will be reluctant to post, but stories of "if I had not been there at that particular moment what might have happened ?" can be pretty interesting.
To hopefully start things off : Mine: Long story short. Told a lady picking berries, and planning to make jelly from them, that they were POISONOUS nightshade berries. I guess she believed me since I never saw "Family Wiped Out After Eating Berry Jelly" headlines in the local paper.
any to share ? If not, the op will just fade into the sunset and oblivion of page 3 - which is probably where it belongs.

Geez, Bat -- so that's where the IAWL storytellers got the idea about young George and Mr. Gower the druggist.

If I had never been born, My Lovely Wife would have married the wrong man and been miserable instead of enjoying the marital bliss she has had with me.

If I had never been born, there would not be as many gaffes in Garth Games.

If I had never been born, there would not be as many gaffes in Garth Games. More importantly, there would be no Garth Games !
