Upsides to living in the future

No flying cars.

No personal jet packs.

The Internet.

Still no return to feudalism (mostly).

Women survived.

Star trek phones + PADDs + computers with sophisticated GUIs.

Personal House Cleaning Robots.

The potential chance of a major conservative politician being forced out of office as a result of a scandal involving him having sexual relations with a personal housecleaning robot, is greater than zero.

DOCTOR WHO SOON OM NOM NOM NOM.

Though I must say, the bit where he killed that prostitute and then said "somedays you get to kill a whore" was a bit OOC imho.
