Have you ever checked old answers? Did you find anything interesting?

I was just looking through some of my old questions, 4 years old to be exact, and it was really interesting to see the way my ideas and thinking have changed over that time. It got me thinking, who else here has looked back through old stuff from on here and what did you find?

    I've checked some of my questions from 2 years or so ago and I agree. It is interesting to see how my thoughts and opinions have changed even over such a short period. It shows me that I'm still changing, growing and learning, as will always be the case.

    I'm also guilty of checking my more recent answers for thumbs up/down and to see who may be saying what about my answer. It's a guilty pleasure of mine. The last two I checked had one person calling me ignorant and asinine, while the other said I was "sour not sweet". Interesting indeed. :)

    Shameful confession time-- I constantly study, or a minimum of test, each answer i'm getting. each especially situations copypasta easily solutions the question. a good number of the time, nevertheless, that is merely propaganda. On 2d theory there is one type of copypasta I overlook approximately: that which i've got seen published a gaggle of situations earlier. Even i've got not got time for those varieties of spamswers.
