We’ll just all assume that every person who gets this would make themselves early twenties with flawless skin, perfect organs, appendages and functionality, and no excess weight.

My question is, would you change yourself from your genetic baseline, and if so, how?

    I’m not even that tall and my height causes issues. People love tall until you try to fit in an airline seat, regular sized car, fit on a bicycle, or buy clothes that don’t need to be custom tailored. Not to mention how often I hit my head on things. And finally it kind of sucks that people are almost always initially intimidated by me based on size, hard to get part that first impression.

      Yeah. But, you know, most girls like a tall dude. And I wouldn’t mind being part of their fantasies.

        If this machine existed, overnight you’d see so many 10 foot freaks with 5 foot dongs bulging out. We’d morph into supermutants from Fallout 3 due to all of our insecurities.

          To help moderate that, I have decided in my little head canon that you can only make this change once every 7 years, otherwise you end up with like super cancer or something I don’t know.
