    You're a time traveller?
    Capable of travelling to any time in all of time?

    Why did you just travel ten years into the past?

    Well obviously that 2029 asteroid encounter is no big deal then.

    No, the usual cold weather with the treat of rain

    See if I was time travelling from 2020 back to 2010 and someone asked me if it would snow on a Christmas ten years ago I wouldn't remember.

    Other thing I've seen time travellers fall apart on is when asked about videogames. It's always a predictable extrapolation which is the opposite of the industry. They say crap like, higher resolution, faster graphics, playstation 6 has a screen on the joypad, sonic 7.

    If it was a real time traveller they'd only remember the unusual stand out features - like there was a ps4 pro before ps5. Or the new nintendo is a handheld where the controls pop off the side. That's more unexpected and fun!

    For lotto numbers you could say something like the variance sensitivity is too high - meaning, each time you travel some minor details fluctuate a bit and no one knows why but its rarely anything life changing for most people. Stuff like playlist sequences or desktop backgrounds.

    Look up John Titor. What was smart about his setup was how he allowed people to talk with him about his actual time machine. Almost plausible.

    You could say that you missed boards or warn people that being a Twitter user after 2024 was grounds for arrest. Or really be innovative and let them know about McDonalds 2.

    I agree with you on covid though :)
