The staff at The New York Observer "simply squinted real hard and
observed" some funny
2013 predictions. Some faves:
- Mayor Bloomberg replaces all movie theater seats with Bowflex Tread Climbers.
- Unemployment drops when millions of working YouTube house cats are included in the jobs numbers.
- Tina Brown helms the reboot of Cat Fancy with controversial “Garfield at 50” cover.
- Mitt Romney is found wandering around a construction site in La Jolla, screaming, “But he says you didn’t build that!”
- Clint Eastwood’s chair is acquired by the Smithsonian, where it
teams up with Archie Bunker’s chair to give Dick Van Dyke’s ottoman a
beat-down with Ben Franklin’s walking stick.
- In the Mad Men season premiere, set in 1986, an aging Don Draper grimly stares at a mango wine cooler and realizes he no longer has the words.
- Tim Cook leaves Apple and moves to an ashram, only to find all anyone wants to hear about is what Steve was really like.
