Futureme.org is the probably the only service I know of that allows you to send emails to yourself INTO THE FUTURE. Ooogaboogaboogabooga. I found this site quite some time ago and immediately sent myself a silly email. However, I’ve now revised my email to my future self.
You can read some of the emails people sent to themselves. It’s extremely fascinating, but often all the future emails project people’s current insecurities into the future hoping that they by then have been solved. Now, you see I’m going be a little more adventurous and realistic.
Here is my email to myself three years into the future:
Dear FutureMe,
without trying to sound like a pompous windbag, but whatever I’m typing now you will remember. For in these words and intention of sending this email, is imbued the feelings, the sounds and touch…. BUT WOAH! Almost got carried away there: needs more awesome. If you, this blog and email still exists, you must send a “proverbial” response to this email back into the past. OMG.
You must answer these questions:
1) Have they invented time travel yet? Three years isn’t much, but you know, anything can happen. Then I could’ve actually removed the word “proverbial” from the paragraph above, for you could actually send me an email.
2) Is the term mindfuck still wildly used? For what I’m doing is pretty mindfuckery.
3) Are there robot suits availible yet? Like those in Ironman?
4) Are you playing Augmented Reality Dungeons and Dragons yet? Or LaserQuest for that matter? If so, is it really as awesome as it sounds!?
5) Have Twitter taken over the globe? Are people still using Facebook?
6) Is indie dance electro ghetto rock the “cool” music genre at the moment?
7) What is your opin… I’M HAPPY FOR YOU. IMMA LET YOU FINISH, BUT IS KANYE WEST STILL THE BIGGEST JACKASS OF ALL TIME! OF ALL TIME!?
8) Was Obama the “change we could believe in?”
9) This is not a questions, but just a way to put the most annoying catchiest song in your head, “Baby, Baby Tjoklits!”. Are you mad at me?
10) I’m going to presume you’re sending me a question as well, so I’m going to answer it for you: “Well if only I knew aliens were living right next door”. Will you post the question to the readers?
There you go. This is the message to myself three years into the future. I hope I can keep this blog up till then. Otherwise follow me around the web for three years so I can publish the “to be continued…”.
