In 1975, before cell phones, personal computers, the internet, social media, Miami Vice, and most video games, a sort of kinky, weird, post-apocalyptic movie set in 2024 came out. It was called A Boy and His Dog, and starred a young Don Johnson. Working on an unrelated substance post, I just learned that movie was set in 2024. Well... we didn't have World War III, or World War IV. Civilization is still around, we didn't live through the end of the world. But the real world in 2024 was something they couldn't possibly have imagined back in 1975. Which was crazier? A Boy and His Dog or real life 2024? You decide, and let me know on Facebook.
The year 2024 in review by NBC News. I'd say the real 2024 was a hell of a lot crazier than a talking dog helping a guy get laid. Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction.
