It is interesting when you look at different media that was made a long time ago and they are predicting what our present time would be like.

Take this picture for example. It was in a magazine in the 1950's

The Past Predicting the Future Waterproof
Wouldn't it be awesome if it were like that?

Lots of movies set in the future are like this too...

So have you seen any media where their predictions were correct?
or are we more likely to predict more than what we are capable of?

Cars in the future run off garbage, like banana peels and other useless paraphernalia.

I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say, it's time we all pitch in and hire a hit man. We then put him outside Hayden's house and say "Be imaginative".
