I see David Van Day’s upgraded his burger van.

In the future, women will Botox their armpits.

I suspect the cover people will be less “intrigued” and more “scared shitless” when the spider returns.

I can’t wait until we all start wearing jumpsuits. Is that a distant future thing, or a not-too-distant future?
June 4th, 2018 at 4:03 pm
I’m skeptical of how glorious a jumpsuited future would really be. Even a minor case of the Rigellian space trots would make you regret the extra seconds it costs you to shrug a jumpsuit down off your shoulders.

Can’t see their feet. 99% sure she is wearing sandals.

I just googled “peasant smock dress” confirming 1) that is what she is wearing 2) they are a thing in 2018 as well as for those living in 3018.

Disco Songs From the Stars.
Also our old pal Introyg.
“He’s a maintenance guy! She’s a frequent shopper! They’re gonna rock this circular mall all night long!” cheesy 80’s movie music.

Why are her thighs yellow like her dress? Bleeding dye?

@Ray P: She’s wearing matching tights. A very 80’s style, though usually there was a bit of contrast in the colors here on Earth. Presumably the fashion has changed a bit in THE STARS.
@Yoss (8): Which is why, every time jumpsuits come back into style, it doesn’t last. A new generation realizes how impractical it is to get 90% undressed just to do your business — particularly for women, particularly in public loos. I fell for that style ONCE in my youth and never again when they return.

They scanned the spaceways to the find the mall of their dreams.
MULLETS FROM THE STARS

The major rock release of 1985: SPINRADs new album Songs From the Stars. Featuring the hit “We Built This City on H.G.Wells”!
June 7th, 2018 at 12:27 am
@ARY: GSS! I do think this deserves either “mullet” or “haircut 100”. Or both, one for each of them.
I think your idea is the soundtrack album to the movie I was envisioning. SPIN-RAD does sound like an 80s band name. They’re rad! Their records spin!
The heroic montage is set to “We Built This City on HG Wells”, and footage from the movie is most of the music video for the song, with occasional inserts of the blow-dried band SPINRAD lip syncing on the mall set. It was in heavy rotation on MTV worldwide starting in summer 1985.
In a universe very close to our own, Roger Zelazny enjoyed every bit of the popcorn he ate while watching it.

Spinrad sounds like a brand of washing machine from 1957.
June 7th, 2018 at 12:46 am
@Ray P: Maybe it’s a washing machine spinning in space instead of a mall? The damsel’s waiting for her trousers to be washed and spin-dry, while the jumpsuited dude is the futuristic repairman?
June 7th, 2018 at 12:52 am
@ex-noob You don’t make it seem like an exciting story. In space no one can hear your washing machine.
June 7th, 2018 at 1:04 am
2001 a space odyssey would certainly be astounding if it had a giant spinning washer orbiting the Earth to the music of Strauss. Thinking on it didn’t Zanussi put out a tv ad like that?

@17, @18: love it.
@8: in the FUTURE, we will all have sophisticated space-undies which will protect us from space-accidents.
