Cradle of Filth - Existence Is Futile
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtTSiYK2I4o
Two eventful things happened today::
1) my #2600magazine sweater was recognized by an older gentleman at the store. Specifically, he recognized the "blue box" schematic. He seemed like a nice, knowledgeable man who went in length about various topics like old IBM emulators, http://simh.trailing-edge.com/ and http://www.trailingedge.com/ . Although it was a friendly conversation, I felt awkward for some reason and promptly left after getting rung out.
2) later that day, I went into my car after unlocking it with my keyfab and as I sat in the driver seat about to put the fab into the ignition- I noticed my car smelled funny/weird. Looking around, I noticed that everything seemed as I roughly left it- except it seemed dustier and a little more worn/dirty than I had left it. I noticed a box behind/side of my seat(in my peripheral vision) and pulled it forward to look at it as I did not recognize it. I had no recollection of ever purchasing that item nor had any idea why it would be there. I looked up from the packaging and went to out it back- when as I turned my head to look back to put it back where it was. I noticed that several other significant(large and noticible) items were there that REALLY shouldn't be. It was at that moment everything began to sink in.
I was in someone else's car.
I had mistakenly hopped inside someone else's car with the exact same model/features/interior/etc and had only begun to notice differences because of the used/worn smell that contrasted my normally stale/clean car air.
Cutting to the end- I got back to my own car, ripped the backend of a envelope I had in the dash and wrote with a pencil "your car was unlocked. Please be more careful. I mistook your car for mine." And left it on the windshield.

I argue not likely.
The future dystopian world will be run on nothing but #Rust and #javascript
Future versions of "deep web" would simply not be not owning any smart devices or being connected to the internet. Future "dark net" will be available by those who run by the very few "js-free" browsers left in existence- as most are js-enabled by default and auto-records your activity to be played back remotely like a private government twitch stream.

The internet cannot lie! I read it in an email so it must be true!

Not here. It's below 70*F and thick with fog.
Went to a concert with someone. Saw #evanescence and #halestorm with #plush as the opening act.
Got cheated out of the meet n greet though.

You are right at the very least on the last bit.
