Post by wautd »

Just interesting of note that 1982's Blade Runner was a movie set in November 2019, Los Angeles :)

On the plus side, no nuclear war.

On the negative side, no offworld colonies.

To be pedantic, Blade Runner could still be set in the future - I don't recall an exact date ever being mentioned, so we can't be sure it's in the past until 1 December.

The simplest solution takes the shortest time to write down.

"My homies!" - Shatner

"The women!!" - Spock

"He's no better than Shatner!" - Phil Hartman as Bill Clinton re: Leonard Nimoy

Edit it to say '22nd Century', and 2119.

Problem solved :)
I've been asked why I still follow a few of the people I know on Facebook with 'interesting political habits and view points'.

It's so when they comment on or approve of something, I know what pages to block/what not to vote for.
