Infotainment, stuff like the Daily show and Colbert report and Cracked.com.
Mobile web devices.
Print on demand for everything from T-shirts to new first ed. AD&D adventures.
Pop music that sounds like techno
The fact that homophopia gets more uncool everyday
Online shoping, never really cared to dress well, cause I don't like clothes shoping at a store. Give me a good store website and I'm a happy camper.

Social Media. People like to diss it, but it has really helped make the world a little smaller. Plus, it helps spread news at a much quicker rate, people can reconnect with old friends/family. I think it's an amazing phenomenon.

The phrase "real talk". Doctor Who has gone from being something that only a small minority of people kept alive to a smegging cultural phenomenon and the centrepiece of British TV. Real talk. |
