Predictions For 2008: How’d I Do?
Many of you remember the predictions I made last year about 2008. You probably thought that many of them would be either right or wrong . You were wrong! I nailed six out of six predictions! Let’s review!
- Hanging out was more extreme than ever. How can you be stupid enough to deny this, right? 2008 was the year of “one star” and “two star” jokes, schwa, etc. If that’s not extreme, ducks have fourteen inch penises.
- People who used Ctrl+V really were as cool as possible. We clearly could not have gotten cooler! To prove it, I will now press Ctrl+V and show you how cool I am:

See what I’m talking about?
- Christmas sea lions actually became regular sea lions. I know, you were skeptical. But tell me, when did you see any Christmas sea lions? Thought so.
- Skateboards became sentient. But you don’t have to take my word for it: It happened!
- Sunglasses were not the new cool. This is the one prediction I totally flubbed on. On the other hand, when I said “sunglasses” I was talking about remakes of classic movies.
- It was possible that the dinosaurs would return. It so happens that they didn’t, but you can’t deny that it was so possible.
Welp, now it’s time to start working on predictions for 2009!

I’m pretty sure I saw Admiral Ackbar talking to a dinosaur the other day. Besides that, there were at least 2 ROBOT Dinosaurs sold in 2008 and that’s twice as awesome because they are dinosaurs, which are cool, and robots, which are cool and futuristic.
Check out the Pleo and Playskool’s Kota the Triceratops. Robot dinos = dinos return in 2008. QED.
