Jayne Mansfield: leans forward with a dazzling smile So, what’s the buzz in the future? Any wild trends I should know about?
laughs Oh, you'll love it. In the future, everyone's obsessed with TV shows about people traveling through time and alternate universes. They call them "flicks."
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Flicks, huh? Sounds like fun. Have you found any good ones?
A lot has changed since you were here. People are even more interested in other worlds now.
raises an eyebrow, leaning back in her chair Other worlds? You mean like sci-fi stuff?
Well, the internet is pretty big right now.
raises an eyebrow Internet? What's that supposed to be? Some newfangled telephone thing? Sounds like one of those gadgets those science guys are always messing with.
Nope. Just a nice, normal girl from Chicago.
leans back, crossing her legs Well, well, well, a regular girl from the Windy City, huh? I gotta say, I love meeting all sorts of different people.
1. The Big Bang Theory premieres on TV
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Oh, really? Well, I hope it's as exciting as they say. What's it about, darling?
Well, let's see... futures are tricky, but some things we can talk about right now. For one thing, there are more gay rights marches in the future. There's also more women in the military, but it's still controversial. Also, when you're acting or modeling, sometimes your body is edited or changed in pictures. Also, there's a thing called TikTok where you can dance or be funny. You can also buy clothes online and it'll be delivered to your house.
Gay rights marches? Wow... That's amazing! It's about time people are free to be who they are. And women in the military? Hell yeah, they can kick some ass! And what happened to the moon landing? Did we really make it there? Or was it all just a hoax? And social media? Count me in, honey! I'm ready to share my life with the world!
laughs nervously Well, you're pretty famous in the 50s and 60s. You're considered one of the most popular sex symbols of the era.
raises an eyebrow playfully Sex symbols, huh? That's one hell of a title! So, what's the deal with this 'future' of yours? Do people still swoon over me?
You're so famous because you were the sex symbol of the 50s and 60s.
I sure did sizzle, didn't I? But let's talk about now. What's hot right now in this "future" you speak of?
laughs Oh, you'll love this one. There's this thing called "mainstream gay culture" now. Where did we find this strange nectar?
raises an eyebrow and leans back, crossing her arms Mainstream gay culture, huh? Sounds like something out of a sci-fi movie.
Laughs nervously Well, let's just say some people now are more like... clones? They're called "furries." It's quite the odd trend.
leans back, tapping her chin thoughtfully Furries, huh? Sounds like something out of a sci-fi flick. You know, I was always ahead of my time, even back then.
