What will you miss in the Future?

Also we will discover there is a Heavenly plane of existence despite the fact that we can live forever, so most people are going to want to die.

 

Well then. The future as envisioned by Skip is not a hospitable place

 

I will miss having the possibility of new Pearl Jam albums

 

Nokia or Motorola?

 

You, sir, have good taste in music.

 

Why thank you I cultivated it myself

 

Beachbum is a woman according to her profile. Not tryin to sharpshoot ya.

 

Heh. Ohps.

 

Heheheheee

 

People not looking at their phones every two seconds while you're talking to them. It's funny, my friends are always staring at their phones but they manage to never respond to my texts lol

Already your phone is your watch, calendar, source of all human contact, calculator, bank, and camera. I mean anyone with an iPhone is apparently a photographer now. In the future I'm sure phones will be even more integral to daily life. Apparently kids these days don't even make phone calls anymore. How much more impersonal can we get?

 

not a whole lot. there are a lot of things i will notice not being there.
i could list those, but most of them, i would probably not miss at all,
not with how i could, were i free to do so, replace the function of.

there are things i'm already missing though. the level of per capita public transportation.
i'm sorely missing that one already. both in cities, but even much much more, in and between smaller communities.

easy access to public libraries, and access to university engineering and science libraries at all.

brick and mortar model hobby, computer and electronics stores.

but again these are all things i'm already missing.

hippy type brick and mortar groceries, resteraunts, musical instrument and novelty art stores and galleries.

small towns that are or were hippie, or what i would consider to be hippie, dominated.

a relaxed atmosphere of NOT making everything have to be about money. or credit.

not having to have a car, a phone AND a line of credit, and a card to go with it, to be able to rent a decent house or apartment.

all of these things i can think of though, are things i'm already missing.

some of them exist in other places, and may, hopefully continue to.

but it wasn't long ago most of them existed where i am now too.

 

Is a 'your mom' joke already been made in this thread?

 

In the year 3,000 some people will miss having a bellybutton.

 

Drop it like it's hot.

 

Mama's love is irresistible, and she loves to play slap and tickle, upon her squeeze box. She's playing all night, and the music's alright, but daddy never sleeps at night!

 

Whatever is left at that time that I'm not fed up with...

 

Ill miss salmon a lot. And other seafoods, as Skip said. Hopefully we can still keep rainforests and other natural wonders from being wiped out.

 

Funny was talking to my wife about this tonight there are things I miss already ! Pubs Not many real pubs anymore where you go in and everyone knows your name ,your dad , your family , people you could have a laugh with, laugh at ,ask advice , borrow off till you get straight . All gone now !! pubs today have a menu on the bar and a Kids play area

 

My youth. And the future for me is now.

 

Does that mean we can return the future for a full refund?
