I’ve Seen the Future, and it Sucks

I noticed a link to the above earlier today, while reading EL CHAVO!’s review of the ever so crappily intriguing Carl’s Jr. Huevos Rancheros Breakfast Burrito. I believe that the breakfast burrito should not only be the national food of California (yes, I said national on purpose), but that it’s the one thing that can truly unite the whitest Californian and the brownest Mexican into a state of true brotherhood.
That image above is of a “Crispycone.” The “Crispycone” website is informative, in it’s own way, if by informative you mean it’s composed of letters and pictures. But my hombre EL CHAVO!, a huevos rancheros expert if ever there was one, is far, far more informative on the subject.
My babbling is pointless, though. On to the future part. Can you apply the future to everything? I think not. From the Crispycones website.
Isn’t it time to reinvent the way we eat our favorite foods?
After all, we do everything differently than we did just a few years ago. The music industry has MP3’s. Cell phones got built-in cameras. Laptops went the wireless internet way.
CrispyCones will forever change the way we look at meals on the go, with a new, fun alternative to traditional fast food. Made with nutritious ingredients and delivered in a smart drip-free cone that complements the delicious flavors of the food, the Crispy Cone lets you enjoy your favorite foods in a modern and environmentally-smart new way.
What does this tell me? That the end is near, that although our society seems to have survived the Cola Wars and may be eeking it’s way out of the culture wars (although even the perverts are puritanical these days - PTSD, I suppose), our steady march towards some kind of apocalypse continues on.

There was a slight pause on the way to the apocalypse, as the CrispyCone that was in Santa Anita went out of business!

Don’t despair, the future is no different from the present or the past, all equally suck. Only science fiction writers and religious zealots tell us it sucks more or sucks less.

[...] one. I love good food, sometimes I love bad food related business plans just as much. A while back I discovered Crispycones, which I’m glad I’ve never eaten, and I hope you never have, either. Last night, on our [...]
