“Pron was the only time you could be with a girl without your parents present”

I think another implication here is they trust a corporation more than a government

I always liked in Momento he picked up the phone and immediately asked, “Who is this?”

open mouth chewing on potato chips “Yeah?”

Someone who put work and effort into developing time travel will have heard of it. Unless it happened after a complete destruction and rebuild of civilization or two.

Whine about my taxes going up again. Cry laugh at John Stewart. Go defend my school board

At this point, all we can do is take bets on which will do us in first: climate, super bugs, or nuclear war.
