I left the store today with two sacks with cataloupe, honeydew melon, bananas, a bag of lettuce, leaf lettuce, fresh peaches, a pack of lean cuisine frozen lasagna, two containers of light yogurt, and very little else other than tp and paper towels for $39.

Status: offline 		No, we will align along a societal standard that says that women in purple sex clothes are just fuckin' tacky.......perhaps in poetry and in the halcyon days of ne'ermore; Poe could have forwarded the notion that Elanor Roosevelt looked devastating in a purple teddy, but the simple fact of history remains that Franklin was out hunting up the 'New Deal', and not using that girl to her full potential; so words do convey actual concepts and word-pictures time to time.  See what I am getting at?

Blizzard, tornado warning, terrorist attack, power failure, national holiday, local serial killer. People shop. And they get downright pissed off when it's 11 PM and they have to leave the store.

Status: offline 		Yes. Youre right. Ive scared myself for sure with the shopping thought. Theres goes all our resources! The worst part of it is, when Elanor wore the purple teddy, she got no feedback, never wore the teddy again, finally threw it out when she gained weight and there it went, right into the landfill. We're doomed.

Maybe if we could get Ron to go and give positive feedback to all the neglected women of the world, they'd start to love themselves, only buy what they need and stop throwing stuff away. Ron! Please save the world! I now see you're our only hope!

We will all have an extreme form of ADD, as a way to adapt to a world where fifteen thousand things are being thrown at us at once, where information is constantly pouring at us from every which way. It will have gotten to the point where we can watch a TV show, talk on the phone, text message someone, and listen to music all at once, we will have adapted so that our attention can be so perfectly split.
We will also be addicted to extreme forms of speed. Caffeine and B12 will be child's play, as we will grow to need more and more higher potency energy drinks and whatnot to keep us going, to keep our mental faculties tuned on high at all times.
Also, communication will be done entirely by technology. Why? Because it'll be streamlined; it'll be faster, and more efficient.


no fair, you cheated...
we're supposed to be talking about a hundred years from now, not generation Y. :)

other than maybe the communication through electronics thing, think there will be any downside to your scenario? think people can ever adapt to this reality in a healthy way?

Some of us already have this ability.
