I think it even better that we eradicate the penny — in twenty years the cool college kids can talk about this totally obscure band who wrote this one song, like, a long time ago, and did you know that a penny was actually money once? OMG, I know! Real money is so old, man, like bartering beads!

By then our state-issued ID cards will be consolidated with VISA.

    State-issued ID cards?

    Dude, we’ll totally have RFID implants. Just in case the cameras every five feet don’t catch our eyes to scan them.

    dude…..i no more expected to come here and find a video by Big Black than i would expect to, oh, i don’t know…..visit Feministe and see a video by W.A.S.P.

    the levels of irony displayed here are so multilayered that i…i…i feel…rather dizzy.

    r@d@r, I effin’ LOVE Big Black. “Dead Billy” is one of my all-time favorite songs, hands down.
