The Future is now?

its 6:53am on a sunday and I have to go in for work at 8, why would I the lowly TECHbet be up at such an ungodly hour one might ask himself? the answer is actually a question, one that has been asked before but that does indeed bare to be repeated.

where is the future?

what I mean by that is where is the utopian paradise our parents parents told us about in the late to middle fifty's
im talking about video's like this people

the kind where people didnt think about geopolitical hotspots or anything like that but instead decided that the future could be lived in peace....

where he heck did that future go....

I demand my jetpack and I do not mean this little number....


THIS IS THE FUTURE I WAS PROMISED AND BY GUM IT SHALL BE THAT WAY!!!
the kind that a sugar cereal addled brain taught me to see as the promise of tommorow....
