Futuristic science predictions

I’ve been kicking around this idea lately and the sniping between the man of 1000 accounts and Gunnar reminded me of it. So, I thought I’d post it and see if anybody else has any cool ideas/thoughts on the future.
So, my thought as of late has been, in the future, plumbing and the bathroom will be antiquated systems and rooms. I’m thinking that with the modifying and engineering of food that maybe in 100 or 200 years the food we consume will become much more efficient. It will all be absorbed by the intestines and we will have no waste products that will need to removed from our bodies. So, the need for a bathroom will become a distant memory.
Anybody got anything else?

The future is slow environmental and economic collapse. Human civilization has already peaked. Unless you’re extremely rich, expect a great deal of suffering in the next 100 years.

Then it literally would be a bathroom since we wouldn’t need toilets anymore. I’d kinda miss taking a dump though.

Self driving cars are right around the corner and that’s a good thing, IMO. However, Teleportation would be the most ideal form of transportation.

We’re coming up on October 2015, which is the setting for Back to the Future II. It’s interesting to compare what things the movie predicted correctly.

Forget the hoverboard, I want the hydrating pizza, dammit!

I’m sure the Greeks and Romans thought the same thing.

There have been a ton of news articles talking about what has and hasn’t happened. Hint more hasn’t than has… if anything.

I was so disappointed after watching that Lexus ad for their hover board to find out they had built that entire skatepark full of magnets. That’s cheating.

My prediction is that we’ll run out of wind, and all these hippy environmentalists who said wind power was the way to go will be proven wrong.

That’s not a threat at all. All we need to do is put solar panels on the windmills and reverse the motors so they’ll become giant fans. We can make all the wind we want. They don’t call it “renewable resources” for nothing, Lady.

FUCK. YES.

A new technology power source for interplanetary travel that reduces the time at least in half.

I want that damn teleporter sooner rather than later so I no longer have to be subjected to unruly airline passengers. Beam me up!

I predict the extinction of most written languages. Pictographs will replace words and letters.

And to think you’re wasting your life teaching English (HA!) to working class inbreds.

So, you think the Egyptians were well past the alphabet? decent idea. we could be headed that way.

Ha ha!! have you been a plate cleaner your whole life or only since religion took your mail order bride away, along with the couch you bought? Maybe you can get that lumber mill up and going again, that might get you back on track. Ha ha, dumb son of a bitch.

The Greeks and Romans weren’t literally destroying the world.
