You know its the 2000's when...

Heres an interesting idea i came up with for a thread after talking to my mum strangely enough.
Just complete the sentence: You know its the 2000's when:

-You can divorce your parents
-You can surf the internet on your fridge
-You can sue someone over something that was your fault
-Your car is smarter then you are
-You'd rather play online poker then the real deal

- You mostly watch television online
- You can be contacted through multiple email addresses, instant messenger programs or social network websites
- TV shows, fads and movies from the 90s elicit feelings of nostalgia
- Mobile phones are a standard accessory for teenagers
- You have an extensive music collection but rarely buy CDs

-You pay for virtual world online games (2nd Life)
-You have another world accessibly with the help of the internet.
-You can contact someone half way across the world in a split second.
-You can be apart of large communities with people all around the planet (like this one)
-You can have all your movies, TV shows and music in your pocket.

-You can sue someone over something that was your fault

You've been able to sue people in restitution for a contract breach that was your fault for ages =p

the courts suck, when some dumb fuck can sue mcdonalds for spilling coffee on themselves and actually win a shit load of money? its just stupid is all i am saying

that case was weird though: it was like the coffee was hotter than the standard McD's coffee which is why she won because they were negligent in that sense.

- When children are able to control their parents
- When TV shows show spoiled rich brats on their sweet 16th
- When environmentalism finally becomes a bigger issue
- When the US gets their first black president (I doubt McCain will get it)

- You look at the calendar

did you ever hear about the guy who bought a new RV, then took it out on a trip, put cruise control on and went to the bathroom. he sued the company who sold it to him cause the drivers manual did not say you had to stay at the wheel with the cruise control on, and that guy won also.


point is, the courts are paying people for being stupid and lacking any common sense

- Going to the theater and watching a good movie is very rare.
- Smoking doesn't make you badass.
- The quality of TV/music/movies is nothing compared to the other years.
- Money=Music contracts and stupid reality shows
- Pets are accessories.

A lot more but can't think straight right now, I'll post more later...

-Flying cars everywhere
-You can see girls naked by just looking at them
-Every computer is now touch screen

^ I wonder when the flying cars will come to Europe.

i wanna know when i can see girls naked just by looking at them. something like that would destroy the porn industry

^ I wonder when the flying cars will come to Europe.

Perhaps this video will clear up the flying car issue:

"You'd do it with a bunch of guys just to get a car."



- When you still think it's strange when people shorten the year with zero's before them or with the letter K because you're used to having years with a 9 before them.
- Stating your birthyear feels so old in a weird way.

- When people will actually spend money (not necessarily their own) texting their name and their significant other's name to a premium service to find out if they're being cheated on, amongst a whole lot of other similar services. I wonder if anyone actually takes it seriously.

I tried it twice in a row to prove a point to someone. The results didnt match.

I suppose it's a bit of fun for anyone with a bit of money to burn, especially if it's not their money. Mind you, the one that tests your compatibility with your significant other might be accurate. If they're the kind of person who would seriously question a relationship over a novelty or go so far as to end the relationship, I'd suggest they're not the person for you.

-when there's 300 channels yet you still watch the watch instantly on netflix because its better choices

they amended shit like that in Aus.

Now you need at least 5% permanent injury before you can claim anything other than loss of income and medical damages.

its exam time ill talk about what i want

- when being born in 1983 means you get called mister by kids and they look at you with respect.

- you can remember shit from 15 yers ago like it was yesterday

- when global warming is no longer just something that might happen

- when flying cars, robots and A.I are right around the corner for the masses

- when my favourite superhero finally gets properly reprisented on the big screen.

- when we're about to have a black president here in america!!!!

- when flying cars, robots and A.I are right around the corner for the masses

Perhaps we'd have them now, if not for Dante Hicks.

- when being born in 1983 means you get called mister by kids and they look at you with respect.

At least you get respect. Some people don't, damn kids.

when flying cars, robots and A.I are right around the corner for the masses

You don't like them robot dogs or the dancing robots from Japan?

Nope...i mean't robots with good A.I available to the consumer.

If I, Robot has taught us nothing else - and it probably hasn't - we should avoid going down that path.
