Just got back from the future

Man, you guys wouldn't BELIEVE it! It's all different! I am sworn to secrecy but I will tell you this: flying cars? Don't give up yet!

We don't need flying cars. People suck at driving the ones that are supposed to stay on a tangible road. Plus we've got planes.

Oh, go ahead and poo-poo the flying cars, ya freaking caveman. They're coming, I tell you. They're made out of nerf so they never hurt or get banged up.

Please.... people won't be driving the flying cars. Computers will. See, by the time they have the flying cars, they'll have infallible computers that will be completely glitch-free and failsafe.

Also, if there is an accident, all the guns and bullets are made out of nerf, too.

In the future, Ctrl Alt Del will be integrated into one button.

But I say too much.

That is far too much power for one single button to have. This is dangerous.

I KNEW Zen would get all gasm-y.

It's just a matter of time.

In the future, all love is free.

The future is starting to look like the 70s!
