Corpse Run 139: With all respect to the Jetsons
If someone could point me in the direction of the nearest mental hospital, I would greatly appreciate it. I went out to a restaurant a few nights ago with my roomie, her boyfriend, and visiting friend of hers. There was a tv on the wall playing the Jetsons, and this conversation actually took place. I mean, think about it; why are they living up in the sky?
Cause it’s the future? No, I call BS. Either the planet has totally gone to hell, or there’s a serious gap in wealth in the world of the Jetsons.
Some future…
I’ll be going to a wedding in a few days… I hope this isn’t the type of conversation that I make.
I know this is an old comic, but i just being going trough the archive, Very nice comic by the way.
So if you ever saw the jetsons movie they show that the pollution is so dense now that every day they push a button and the houses rise higher to avoid it.
This is Elysium in a nutshell.
Old, yes, but Cracked.com had an article on this a while ago. According to them, The Jetsons and The Flintstones take place at the same time, on the same world. They put up a pretty good argument, too.
