I posted this on my tumblr this morning but figured I'd get a better response over here. Plus it's been ages since I've posted here, and the white space of the compose window is throwing up a writer's block right now…
More things promised to us “in the future” that haven’t showed up (yet):
- Flying cars
- The Thunderdome
- Daily depilatory cream (i.e. Nair for beards w/ no side effects)
- Hoverboards
- Toilets/bathrooms that clean themselves

Big Brother- Holographic advertisements
- Multipasses
- Human-embedded computers (w/ brain interface)
- Teleportation / matter transmission

Others you’d like to add to the list?
