Dear Entitled Technologists
Dear Entitled Technologists,
Please stop complaining about your lack of jetpacks.
Please stop whining that you have no flying car.
You are discussing a future as seen from the back of a darkened theater during a 40-year-old Bond flick. At no point were you promised either: I do not recall the technology fairy wandering about granting wishes throughout our youths.
If you want a jetpack, build it; if you want a flying car, get out the oxy-acetylene torch and a physics degree.
Your compliance is appreciated,
JRD
You know I take that personally.
Ah, well, my intentions were that men of Krypton were exempted.
Still waiting for Judy Jetson to get my postcards.
I should have just pointed to my original inspiration – your post about the future was well written and ended on a blindly optimistic note, whereas this t-shirt is the annoying product of hipsters: http://www.boingboing.net/2010/07/28/funny-t-shirt-this-w.html
