If there only was some way of reading one's mind. You could create a device that holds your hand and hums your favourite tune as you cross the street, tell you when it's time to go pee-pee and tells you a cute story when you go to bed.
I hate the future where you can't drive a car because the cars drive themselves, you can't create a campfire (or even bbq) because the drones put it out and call the cops, can't flip the bird at anyone because the picture of that is instantly posted to your profile for your employer and clients to see, can't watch the games on the couch with a crate of beer because the tv watches you and forwards the data to your doctor, etc.
Wait a minute, we're nearly there already. Better book a trip to Bouvet...
