[25 years ago (January 2001), I posted what it will be like in the future in California. These were funny jokes about the future. Now? Many are true.]
**You make over $300,000 and still can't afford a house.
**You ride a bus and are shocked at two people carrying on a conversation in English.
**Your child's 3rd-grade teacher has purple hair, a nose ring, and is named
Breeze.
**Your coworker has 8 body piercings, and none are visible.
**You can't remember...is pot illegal?
**You have a very strong opinion about where your coffee beans are grown and
can taste the difference between Sumatran and Ethiopian.
**A really great parking space can totally move you to tears.
**Gas costs $2.00 per gallon more than anywhere else in the U.S.
**Your car insurance costs as much as your house payment.
**You pass an elementary school playground, and the children are all busy with their cell phones.
**It's barely raining outside, so you leave for work an hour early to avoid all the weather-related accidents.
**Rather than listen to stories from your co-workers at the water cooler, you find yourself anxiously waiting for the daily Grif.Net and realize there are people with even "less" of a life than you have!
