Oh my effing "Bob." 2005. That's, like, supposed to be the future or
something. In the past that would have seemed futuristic. 2005. But it's not
so futuristic. I like the iPod and all, but you could have seen that coming
back in the 70s if you wanted to, and it's not like automated highways or
bubble cities like we were supposed to get by the year 1979 or thereabouts.
This is the first year that I haven't accidentally written the previous year
when absent-mindedly writing the date. I have yet to write "2004" when I
meant to write "2005." It was, like, instant acclimation, as of midnight
cheers and cheesy renditions of Auld Lange Syne as if any aren't cheesy the
second it went from 2004 to 2005. When conventional errors cease, something
is right in all the wrong ways. How to auger such an omen?
The Subgenius must come to terms with the very fact of it being 2005, and
all that was never promised.
You know exactly what I mean, know what I'm saying?

Try being 51.
"You mean I already lived through the 80s and the 90s BOTH?? Oohhh,
yeah, now I remember... I think..."
There has actually been a great deal of discussion and grousing on this
ng about how we didn't get ANY of the future-stuff we were promised
EXCEPT FOR THE GREAT SPECIAL EFFECTS IN MOVIES ABOUT THE FUTURE. THOSE
turned out to be MUCH more futuristic than anything I was expecting.
Great. We got a better FAKE future.
BUT THEN, 1998 could happen ANY SECOND NOW.

cock.

Just be glad you're not Jewish. For them, it's already 5765.

and still waiting for the messiah.
Come to think of it, they have been waiting for the messiah longer
than the christians have been waiting for Jesus.

With song?
Auld Lang Syne
Robert Burns, 1788
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to min'?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And days o' lang syne?
[Chorus]
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne.
And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp,
And surely I'll be mine;
And we'll tak a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne!
We twa hae rin about the braes,
And pu'd the gowans fine;
But we've wander'd monie a weary fit
Sin' auld lang syne.
We twa hae paidl't i' the burn,
Frae mornin' sun till dine;
But seas between us braid hae roar'd
Sin' auld lang syne.
And here 's a hand, my trusty fiere,
And gie's a hand o' thine;
And we'll tak a right guid-willie waught
For auld lang syne.
