IN THE FUTURE

The Geek

Handheld gadgets such as smartphones and tablets (and whatever those eventually lead to) will be so prevalent, not only will writing with pen and paper become outmoded, it will be illegal.

Ironically, Bloods will eventually support Democrats and Crips will come to support Republicans.

Food won't be converted to pill or paste form. It will be made gaseous and will be consumed through your mandatory tracheotomy.

Due to restrictions on available ingredients, fake tanning lotions will slowly move along the spectrum from orange to red, causing natural sunburns to come into fashion.

Stealing bits from ousted late night talk show hosts will be considered the height of comedy.

Excellent.



My plans are coming to fruition.

Surprisingly, all these changes will happen overnight.

Tomorrow, in fact. Brace yourself.

Robot dogs will outnumber real dogs 3 to 1.

In the future homosexuals will not only be allowed to marry and raise children, but be able to biologically reproduce leading to a race of super-gays that rule over mankind with a firm-but-fair grip.

isn't that future based on the idea that we've been learning new technologies from the transformers for a decade or so beforehand?

Mysterious Fox

Through a series of highly improbable events, the United States is returned to the waiting bosom of the United Kingdom. Except for Texas, which is ceded to the Molemen of the Inner Reaches.

after trillions of dollars of frenzied research, the cure for aging will ironically only be available to the poor

Also robococks for everyone

I definitely believed the hype that in the year 2000 I'd get to drive a flying car. I got my learner's permit in 2000 and all I got to drive was a Plymouth Voyager.

I'd imagine so, since I remember Spike's future kid had his own transforming robo-suit.

2038: the livelink streamload of avant garde gay porno Megadong Vs Cocktimus Prime triggers violent rioting worldwide

First they came on the communists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.

Then they came on the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.

Then they came on the Jews,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew.

Then they came on me
and there was no one left to speak out for me.
