Future Shock!
The 21st Century is so Disappointing!
Was anyone else forced to watch the movie version of the 70's book Future Shock! It was kind of a Reefer Madness for social conservatives. Anyway, they predicted that many trend, that even hipsters back in the 1970s would find "Shocking" would emerge by the end of the century. I do think they talked a lot about the gays (socail conservatives always do...ah-hem...) and may have actually foreseen the whole gay marriage movement..anyway that's beside the point..it was a wonderfully cheesy movie. It just reminded me how disappointing the actual future is...
I mean by this time, I thought for sure life would be more like this....
