  • I was devastated :( that movie breaks my brain anyway though, cos I don't understand how the parents didn't notice that their son looks like the guy that set them up. I don't wanna think about that movie then.

    That is pretty much the norm in stories making predictions about about the future. Authors are notoriously bad at it and predit things that will only happen far into the future. On the other hand the characters they describe act and think like contemporary people. This post was edited by JakobA the unAmerican. at May 25, 2017 7:49 PM MDT
