Vintage Geek: Back to the Future II

All the kids had hover boards, the re-hydrater could take a tiny piece of food and zap it into a full gourmet meal, there were TV screens that doubled as window shades — I could not wait for it to be 2015 so I could have all those amazing gadgets (Sidenote: If they had flying cars, then why did everyone still look old as dirt?). I swear, every year after that movie was out, some other kid was telling me that this was the year hover boards were really coming out.
