Er, not the first time you had sex.
Sheesh you guys and your one track minds.
When I was young, I never needed anyone, and making love was just for fun, those days are gone,
seriously when I was younger I thought the year 2000 would be AWESOME.
Actually 2000 looked far away.
Although I didn't express it as such, somewhere in the deep dark recesses of what used to be a mind I thought people would likely be wearing silver one piece suits.
I figured we would be flying much instead of crawling along the ground.
I thought we would be happy, well fed, that Man would occupy space, that there would be a lot of fancy gadgets, cities would be full of tall, amazing buildings with sky walks around, lots of jobs, that economic problems would be mostly solved, most everyone would be incredibly intelligent and well educated, we would be living under the ocean, no more war, heck it just looked bright and sparkly, full of wondrous technology.
Now, reality check. The fanciest gadgets around are the cellphones people like Paris Hilton can afford, the biggest thing in recent times is who released what sex tape, nothing has been done about the ghettos, porn is replaced by webcams, we still don't have nice puppy robots to entertain our children, people are more ignorant than ever, there are not that many good films, clothing looks bloody awful, we MIGHT have a cure for the common cold, people worry about cancer every day, we may all die a horrible death any day now, we might never get to the moon unless someone invents some amazing way of getting there, we haven't met any aliens apart from the suffering illegal ones, deserts are encroaching on our lives, pure water is scarce, food is even more scarce, and oh look, the Middle East conflict is ready to erupt, still, all over an area (the West Bank), 5 860 sq km in size, an area that can fit into New York New York at its 141 299 sq km, 23 times over.
So, what were your thoughts, expectations, hopes, dreams visions for the future?
We are long past the year 2000. Not that long, only 10 years ago, but it seems awful long ago, doesn't it?
Can anyone even think of some amazing thing that has happened in recent times, something worth posting? Paper thin TV? Robot breakthroughs? Educational advances? Stress free life?
Disposable nappies have been around for the longest time, so maybe something more recent. Just saying.
