What are You Most Excited About for the Future?
They looked at the writing prompt together. “What are you most excited about for the future?” Henry read. He thought about it a moment. “Flying cars,” he said.
“Bruh, are you crazy?” Jack said. “If you break down in a normal car, you stop. If your flying car breaks down, you die. Also, do you want drunk college students crashing into your roof at night? Because they will, plus tractor trailer drivers who fall asleep. Also also, police can easily set up radar tracking so you’ll never be able to speed without getting a ticket. You won’t be able to drive in bad weather. It will be way more expensive to go anywhere and you won’t be able to go as far either. Now, think about it again.”
Henry thought for a while. “Flying cars, definitely,” he said at last.
Jack nodded. “Yeah, that will be pretty sick. I wish they’d hurry up.”

This made me think of the film, Bladerunner where you could have sushi delivered by helicopter or a similar vehicle right to your kitchen window. Oh would I just love that.

I’ll bet it’s coming, although it’s hard to predict until it arrives. No one predicted social media although they thought there would be humanoid robots everywhere by this time.
