Everything is so relative. When talking about something "advanced" or "ahead of it's time" I would cite this century as a reference point. So if something was not above the status quo, it would still be stuck in the (current) 21st century.
But you're right, that might not make much sense.
What do I know? I am just a time traveler stuck in the late 17th century.
It's too late for this dead bastard. But now that Yahoo's policies are known, Johann Bin Laden will surely notify the family before giving away corpses as wedding presents.
Oh man. I used to think this line was awesome. It would brighten my day to apply its irony to everyday situations.
If I was cut-off in traffic, I would calm down by saying: "I for one welcome our new road-rage homicide inducing overloards." Or if gas spiked 20 cents: "I for one welcome our new petro-chemical price-gouging overloads" Even shopping for produce to be pissed by a crappy selection: "I for one welcome our new bananna hording monkey...err Apes! Ape overloards."
Anymore, it just seems to be overused and abused. Makes it seem less meaningful. *sigh*
One day though some powerful beings will change it all. And I for one welcome our new humor-moderating overloards....Ooops. Damn it.
I believe native americans immigrated too, just thousands of years earlier across the land bridge. There are no "real" americans.
So using that logic, we are all really Africans then? Being a white male, I am not so sure I should start wearing ancestral African clothing tomorrow. However, I will now have to rethink my book titled: "Blues, Rap and Rhythm; Dude, did I steal your culture?"
I for one don't quite welcome our new space-overlords. I mean, great for India, I have nothing against them. But I can just see it now, corporations outsourcing space exploration to India because it is cheaper.
Some things just should be done by those interested in them, even if it is more expensive. Exploration is one of them. But only time will tell I suppose.
Problem is, these kids don't have any imagination these days. They don't get enough iron in their diets if you ask me.
Why when I was a young lad in Germany, if my father caught me partaking in auto-eroticism with something as pornographic as a lima-bean that looked like a naked woman, there would be Hell to pay.
He'd take a switch from the old birch tree and give me my punishment. With every swift lashing he would tell me to start playing more outside.
Soon I learned the lesson he was trying to teach. I'll never forget what he said to me: "Die Mannwurst geht in den Esel! Nein, nein! Die andere Weise!" I found that the barn animals required much more imagination than lima beans. I made my fater proud that day.

Touché.

I hate crap like this. It's all about making money. I've seen this before and the formula goes something like this:
1. Create hungry self-reproducing flying insect robots.
2. Release robots into wild.
3. Make ransome demand to world governments for one million dollars.
4. Profit!
4b. Apocalypse!

Take it from me, I'm old.
