This is a simulation thread for the future, so that we can prepare ourselves what we will face some two hundred years from now here in the lounge. Feel free to contribute content that is relevant to those upcoming times of unbeknownst. Ok.

They just found Atlantis. Or was that New Orleans?

New New Orleans is tilting in Nevada on the shore of the Pacific.

In 2203 the Corporation will have risen to be a powerful political force. The revolutionary views of the said corporation will change the world in some way.

As Super Master Jr I will have decreed that everyone should wear a sock around their neck.

Mac OS X is so much better than Mac OS XI. The stupid hyper reality crap is keeping me from sharing documents with my girlfriend. And why did Apple screw up the Finder again?

Once you wanted revolution, now you're the institution, how's it feel to be the man?

These iPod iMplants are pretty cool but with the meager 500TB that AppleCore Inc gives, I have to keep deleting simulcra hologrammic music videos. What's up that?!

mojo2: just remember I told you peak Tritium was coming. Once you get the facts you'll understand.
George Bush XII promised he wouldn't stop terrorist bombings until it was $200,000/gram.
When you're way of living can't be sustained and your flying cars are stuck at home, you'll all see the truth. We need to switch to oil now, while there is still time.

Dr. Louis Turin predicted this back in 2043.
"Some energy crisis will erupt between 2100 and 3200."

I shudder to think that we'll all have holo-avatars, and most of you will chose Maxim-type ladies, if only to stare at each other.

The good news is that IceEnclosure's moblog posts will be fully tactile.

Finally, snappy!
When you were young and your heart was an open book, you used to say "live and let live."
But if this ever changing world, in which we live in, makes you give in and cry, say "live and let die."

I'm getting kind of sick of this whole interspecies marriage debate. I mean, it doesn't affect MY marriage if my neighbor wants to live in a wholesome relationship with his dog. They should just legalize it and get it over with...eventually this will turn into a whole civil rights issue, like that gay marriage thing was, and it'll end up becoming legal. Oh well I guess another thing for the Whig* party to stand on.

* Yeah, that's right. They made a comeback.

I anticipate Chicagoland baseball fans bemoaning the 295th season without a Chicago Cubs World Championship.

DATELINE: Chicago
Oct 3, 2203

In the 295 years since the Cubs won their last Galactic Championship (formerly the World Series) series in 1908, the New York Mets have won it the most number of times, at 55. Following the Mets are the Tokyo Giants at 42 victories, The Martian Spiders with 39 championships, and the Boston Red Sox who have won it 28 times. The New York Yankees have won it 26 times, although their last was in 2000, against the Mets. The Yankees have the secong longest championship drought at 203 years, with Chicago's other team, the White Sox, nursing a 198 year losing streak, with their last World Series victory occuring in 2005.

This years' winner, the Saturn Fives, attributed its sucess to the signing of Rickey Henderson X, the tenth generation of his family to break it into the major leagues. Aided by Saturn's low gravity, Rickey set the major leage record for steals with eleventy billion and five thefts.

I'm having trouble with the bio-mac os as projected into my right eye retina. The left one seems well ajusted for porn immersion.

However, with the right one, I can only see 4th demensional images. I want my Jelly String Affect and expose the ##$#$ virtual girls.

Hey guys just got my new 3Ghz G5! And I just bought a buncha tracks off iTunes, so glad secular music finally stopped sucking last year! Oh, and I hear Steve Jobs' head is going to be unveiling the final feature of OS X, FTP uploading in the finder, this year at MacWorld Earth!

Wrong as I stated earlier music stopped sucking... thus the RIAA doesn't exist any more... it was eaten by a crocodile...
