Pop Rocks will transform society!
Artificial fat will transform society!
Injection-molded plastic vampire fangs will transform society!
Adhesive postage stamps which need not be licked will transform society!
Little pieces of plastic with glowing glop inside will transform society!
Whitewall tires will transform society!
Transparent cola will transform society!
Air fresheners shaped like little trees will transform society!
Those little propeller toys at trade shows will transform society!
High-concept snack foods will transform society!
That goddamn paperclip toy in MS Word will transform society!

Every new technology has been endowed with the potential to get on my nerves. Except for those little propeller toys. They rule.
