Someday all men will be viewed as equal and on that day they will be wearing silver matching jumpsuits. A vast see of wearable aluminum foil. Silver jump suits are the ultimate in future apparel, but the question has always remained when? When will the future arrive? When will I , too, get to be a future man? Perhaps, today!?
Bundle Up in Lite-Brite
Captain Electric and Battery Boy is the clothing line of the future. All of it functional, none of it practical, this is what we will be wearing when we’re tooling around in our flying cars. The fabric necklaces named Itchy (using static electricity to power lights around the neck) is perfect for finding lost keys… around your neck or lighting dark spaces… around your neck. The Captain Electric project was to incorporate kinetic energy into clothing. Three different designs were demonstrated: Itchy, Sticky, and Stiff.
Itchy
Sticky
Why, yes, her arms are attached to her waist. For what purpose? Only time will tell.
Stiff
Hmmm… will humps be coming to fashion week? Actually, it holds some sort of boom box because iPods won’t be available in the World of Tomorrow.

Why Silver Jumpsuits are Ideal Apparel
Captain Electric and Battery Boy are nice, and yes they feel a little 2015 (which is only five years away I know, but will always be the future to me thanks to Back to the Future II), but they’re just not full of tin foil goodness. Future clothing needs to be silver or at least white, somewhat reflective or at least shiny, and completely identical. Here’s why we’re going to all switch to Silver Jumpsuits.
1. Nuclear Winter – The fallout from a nuclear winder creates a ice age. Silver Jump suits both keep you warm and toasty while reflecting light at brain eating mutants.
2. As the Earth’s population grows, we can only build up so far, so we must build down. Silver Jumps suits are great for the fashion forward moleman. They can reflect any ambient light and a metal coating can stay cleaner. Plus, it’s an excellent homage to the potato, our primary underground food source and natures most fashionable vegetable.
3. Metal clothes are recyclable – Forget Good Will, these things can be melted down and made into the latest fashions… which will, of course, be more silver jumpsuits.
4. Cloning will end all traces of individuality. Why wear different clothes when you just have a number for a name anyway?

I must disagree with the cloning thing though. I do not think this is a good idea and is not necessary in my lifetime. Numbers can be assigned when cooked eggs are laid and no-one ever feels the need to speak.
Bring on the jumpsuits.
