No one

No one seems to think this is cool but me…digital jewelry…by Nokia. Okay, true. I wouldn’t wear it, but I really like the idea. We need more pseudo-futuristic stuff. Like shiny fabrics and unitards!

...mmm, I don't know, it seems like one of those things that could either be really cool or really lame, depending on how it was used.

Probably people would just use it to display sports team logos or something equally lame.

If people start walking around in unitards, wearing nokia jewelry, and over-using prefixes like pseudo- and quasi-...I'll have to euthanise myself.

I always feel futuristic when I eat fake meat. I'm not a unitard fan, though. I'd prefer to think that in the future we'll all wear comfy loose pants and flattering-yet-utilitarian unisex smocks. But that's just me.

Down with loose pants! Up with hammer pants!

Hammer pants? Bah! A waste of valuable materials befitting the Age of Excess in which we now find ourselves, not warranted by the needs of future humans. Unless maybe they have big, poochy packages or something, or if they stored things in the loose folds of their excessive pants.

I say smocks all the way! With big, handy patch pockets on them.

Either that or strategically-unravelled sweaters, like in the Matrix. With utility belts, like Batman has.

Or some combination of the scramble suit from A Scanner Darkly and the digital camouflage suit those punky kids wear in Neuromancer.
