Well Hello Dear Kid From 3018
It is at that point when Jimmy suddenly realised that the balcony was not designed to support the weight of all the water in his nifty pool design. RIP Jimmy! He had a bright future...except for in the field of structural engineering.
And with that comment you win the internet for today. Congratulations.

Easy...just poke a little hole in the plastic......

It is good to remember that even one cubic meter of water weights 1000 kilos...
Great idea until the walls collapse and you get pushed off a 3rd story balcony by 300 gallons of water.
I wonder if this picture has inspired an eviction notice, I know if I lived in that building I would report this
By my conservative guesstimate there's about 3 tons of water on that balcony. I doubt like hell it was that over built.
OMG,, What's keeping those wall / railings from giving out and sending him over the side.
One cubic meter of water weights one ton, that's about 30 cubic stupid units of volume, and I guess there's some 2 m³ of water there which should be around 2000 kg of extra weight, he should die for his stupidity.
This kid and his family could've won the yearly Darwin award if this had failed.
What the fudge! Where are this little geniuses parents? Or did they help him concoct this death trap?
Honestly, he should be able to take the same hose and siphon it out...just let the other end of the hose hang over the balcony!
Wait for a rainy day so the neighbor thinks it's raining hard, lol

Just how do you drain it without flooding your downstairs neighbors? Pretty self centered and a waist of water.
That structure will support all that weight. Remember he is in 3018. LOL

This post should be recaptioned 'people who actually used thier brain to think with and thought outside of the box to come up with creative and fun ideas' (except a few, ie balcony pool lol)
Please change the title of this posting. This has nothing to do with the future since most of these so-called "inventions" are about total human stupidity and laziness...and if that's the future we have to look forward to then I can't wait for an asteroid or some evil aliens to come down from space and do some major house cleaning with our species.
Only took a look at the 10 first ones but nothing on them suggests that we a 1000 years to make those "standard" in our society, I would guess a decade or two at most.
If these are supposed to be "advanced, futuristic" ideas, then somebody is critically unintelligent! Certainly that somebody is lacking imagination, brains, credibility, and every other kind of thinking resource needed to even get past 2022!
A lot of these just seem like people trying to be as lazy as possible lol. Not sure more than maybe a couple fit the futuristic lean of the title though lol
For people that don't get it - this article isn't about literally futuristic things. It's about ideas that are stupid yet brilliant. It's relatively common in internet culture that when something stupid yet brilliant comes up, people say that they're living in the future. It's similar to saying 'the future is now' or 'ahead of our time'. It's all a joke.
I see this kind of post all the time and yet I can't stop pronouncing it "threetyseventeen" in my head
"Not much has changed but we live underwater" is not the Jonas Brothers, it was Busted.
I am not sure this is future living or laziness or being smarter than the average bear.
