You check the news,

  • The United States has just declared Iran it's #1 enemy
  • Everyone is talking about Linkin Park
  • A massive hurricane has just killed hundreds of people and caused billions of dollars of damage in the southeastern US
  • People are excited for the new Ridley Scott Gladiator movie
  • A political candidate just yelled "Leeerrooyy Jenkins!" on live TV

You sigh, boot up Runescape and put the new Smosh video on in the background.

It is 2024
