OK, of all the predictions and sci-fi from the '40s through the '70s (i.e. 2001 a space Oddity, 1984, etc.), what are you most pissed about not coming to be?

I'm pissed about my flying car. It's 2004, and I was promised a motherfucking flying car.

I wanted Khan to wreak havoc upon earth, before escaping in the Impulse Engine S.S. Bontany Bay, falling into a preserving deep-sleep, and being found by Cap'n Kirk (in 2260-something) of the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) to wake him up, cause havoc, and send him off to a planet, where he would then grow bitterer and 5-10 years later manage to hijack a Miranda-class ship and wreak havoc once more, before being destroyed.

I'm angry because 1984 didn't become even remotely true... and there is no Novus Ordo Seclorum...

Im just pissed off in general at our lagging behind our anticipation of the 30s and 40s. in the 1930 world's fair it showed the futuristic world of 1960. it was...it was...ah I dont even want to describe it.

For every guy that predicted a futuristic utopia by 2000, there were two that predicted that our civilization would lie in ash and smoke and that the fragments of humanity would be uniformly caked in radioactive offal, hideously deformed.

I think we did well. But I really want an ultraefficient, ultraportable form of energy storage.

2001 has come and gone, and still no Space Oddysee. WTF!? I want my HAL9000 damnit! As it stands the only Hal I know is a douche bag computer science instructor.

It's only a focus :p

Seriously though, if you want a car to fly, get yerself a Formula 1, and remove the front and rear wings then go real fast.

close enough to what you want i want the little pills that you can microwave in a few seconds and become full family meals. what an easy way to carry around lots of food.

Where's my food pill (meal in a pill), my flying car and my fuckin LASER GUN, all of which would be stored at my cabin on the moon, which I frequent when I am not working from my office building on Mars?
