[He's fixing the screen for a moment before grinning real wide for the camera.]

Hello, folks! Robin here. I should have done this a few days ago when I first caught him, but better late than never, right?

I'd like everyone to meet....

[this team has a big problem with naming their pokémon....]

Boy Wonder, huh?

[action]

[allmyraeg]

Figures.

[hackintheaster]

But besides that, it's pretty useful. I'll take my wrist-comp over this any day, but it's better than nothing.

[action]

[allmyraeg]

I'd rather have this then nothing. I guess.

[action]

[hackintheaster]

Yeah...it's strange though, because beyond this clearly advanced bit of tech we have in our hands, everything else seems very...basic.

Like you think they'd have flying cars or something.

[allmyraeg]

Flying cars?

[action]

[hackintheaster]

Uh...[Oh right, Supey doesn't know about the Jetsons.]

When I was little there was a TV show about the future and they all had flying cars. Because of that when people think of the future they always think of flying cars.

[hackintheaster]

More like they made a TV show about the future and thought there would be flying cars in it.

[action]

[allmyraeg]

What was it like?

[action]

[hackintheaster]

The show? [Shrug.]

It was okay, I mean, it was an old cartoon so it was supposed to be really funny. I just remember that everyone lived up in the sky and the cars all flew and they had a robotic maid named...Rosie I think? Maybe?

[action]

[allmyraeg]

Robotic maid? Why was it a maid?

[action]

[hackintheaster]

Well, I guess she was more like a nanny. Because when it aired a lot of families had maids and nannies, so it was trying to copy the families of the time.

[action]

[allmyraeg]

Why? If it's set in the future wouldn't she... I dunno, be something else?

[action]

[hackintheaster]

You mean be something other than a nanny?

I mean, realistically, she would. But when they were making the cartoon they had to keep some things the same as society was at the time or else the viewers wouldn't be able to relate.

[allmyraeg]

Why?
