Not really an image macro, but it's been shared a lot lately.
Black Mirror is a sci-fi series, which I'm a big fan of. But this sign, I don't really get, and I can't understand why people find it amusing. I think it's a subgenre of the "the future is now" theme, which need I say is pretty stupid. They show a piece of really cool technology and celebrate that we are already in the "future". No, idiot, are you a time traveler? We're still living in the present. Yeah, some things were predicted to happen in your past, but you have no idea how many more did not play out the way people expected (you can look up retro futurism). We still have no flying cars, for fuck's sake.
I digress, let's get back to the "episode" of Black Mirror that these guys are "experiencing" right now. Why does it suck? Is the plot bad? Is the acting bad? Does it suck because it hurts your feelings? I thought that was the reason that you liked the series - it's often an emotional roller-coaster. So yeah, I don't get it.
