"Hey, AP, it's me. You from the future!"
"Oh cool, what year?"
"2015."
"No the fuck way. Wow... Fifteen years? That's incredible. You really live in the future! I have so many questions..."
"I'll bet you do. Go ahead."
"Do I get a good job? When I graduate college, I mean? Do I end up inventing the first true AI?"
"Ummm... No. You are going to drop out of college and join the military. But don't feel bad, you end up drinking and partying around the world for like ten years. You do pretty well."
"What? That sounds terrible! What about writing!? I wanted to create video games one day..."
"Oh yeah, well you find other ways to express your creativity. We're in our thirties now, and we've finally had enough shit happen to us to write a good book. So you're almost done with that."
"What? I don't write a single book until my fucking thirties? What the fuck did I do with my twenties!?"
"LOL."
"What about video games? I'll bet those are cool at least."
"Well yeah, but the creativity behind them has dropped in many cases. We still pine for the magic of things like Super Metroid but there are some pretty amazing exceptions. Some games come out that you wouldn't believe right now... The first time you play Skyrim. Wow, wish I could do that again."
"What's Skyrim?"
"Ahh, don't worry about it. No sense in getting excited, it's still more than a decade away. What's your favorite game right now?"
"Duh, Diablo 2. Don't you remember?"
"Oh yeah, I sunk a shit load of time into that... Wow. No wonder you aren't getting laid! Stop playing so much fucking Diablo and hit the gym!"
"But I almost can afford a Stone of Jordan... "
"No one gives a flying shit about Stones of Jordan in 2015!"
"Does Diablo 3 ever come out?"
"Yeah, actually."
".... And!? My god, how is it?"
"Eh, it got mediocre reviews so we skipped it. And then never found the time again."
"Wait, you've never played it? And it's been out for a while? What the hell man? "
"Look, you got adult type shit to do in your thirties, and time passes by quicker for some reason. It's not: oh, I have a whole night to fuck around, it's shit, I can't believe I only have this evening to rest before all the shit I have to do tomorrow."
"I can't believe you haven't played Diablo 3. And you don't even make your own video games. I grow up to be a failure."
"Actually, the opposite asshole. You know all the hot girls that... Aww, forget it. I can see why everyone online on GameFAQs used to hate you."
"And I'll bet they still do, what ever virtual reality place you hang out in the future."
"... Well... Maybe."
"Play Diablo 3. Please! Do it for me!"
"Maybe. Let me finish writing this book first, Shade7x."
"What, do we not go by that name anymore in 2015?"
"LOL, no."
