Change your clothes

I need a more futuristic wardrobe to coordinate with my new laptop. For starters, I want an outfit made out of Electric Plaid. When that kind of fabric becomes widely available for the first time, you know everybody's going to set their shirt so it blinks, just to show off. But the novelty will wear off fast, and blinking clothes will be considered tacky, like the <blink> tag in HTML. People will learn how to program their clothes in nice ways, or just download code from designers' websites. Someday, you might use Kazaa to find an open source shirt that's perfect for clubbing, or pay too much for pattern software just because it creates a certain logo on the back of your jeans. I can't wait.
