Progress. We've Done It.

Since the day I was born not only have seismic shifts in technology exploded exponentially, but things that we can even DREAM about have changed so much they're unrecognizable to the dreams of 12 year-old me.  Coming from a world of the landline, record player and Sears catalog, of course there's no way I could've imagined that one day we'd all be walking around yakking on phones the size of our palms that also included every song ever recorded, all while jerking off to mother/daughter Asian bukkake porn. Not only did these things not exist, but I couldn't have IMAGINED them existing. Of COURSE back then I couldn't have imagined a world wherein we'd watch tv shows when and where we wanted to; nor could I have dreamed it possible we could look up our own life history on something called "Facebook."

HOWEVER.

No matter how different a world today is compared to the one that I knew as a kid, there is a single question that would be beyond laughable to a 12 year-old me, one question that, no matter what dystopia/science fiction set of possibilities you presented to me in 1984, would be met with a look of "are you fucking kidding me?", and that question would be:

Why are there so few dunks in women's basketball?

HAHAHAHAHAAHAHA!  1984 mind, blown!!!!!!!
