When I was younger I was disappointed that we didn’t have hoverboards, now that I’m older I’m disappointed we don’t have double ties.

At this age I'd rather have that sleep inducing gadget...

Forget either. I want the three boobed woman from Total Recall.

I would rather have 8 popped collars.

That’s like when I was 2 and put on all the clothes in my dresser just because.

I was very young when I learned that while it's pretty hard to put many shirts on over top of each other, but if you put too many on then it's even harder to get them off. Not as fun as it might sound.

This was exactly what came to mind but I cannot for the life of me figure out where it comes from.

I want the auto dry clothes for wet weather and self tie shoes which would be great for elderly people

Sketchers just released "hands free shoes". 🤷‍♂️

You don’t wear double ties and pull your pockets inside out? I’m disappointed.

dkonigs@reddit

When I went to work on October 21st, 2015, I absolutely wore two ties :-)

(Even if I didn't normally wear a tie at all, nor did anyone else in the office.)

Flying cars that run on trash, we were supposed to have these 10 years ago dammit. I had the DeLorean, the cop car and the taxi from the future in Micro Machines.

Zeke688@reddit

Common misconception, Doc actually has to explain it to Marty in 3. You see the flux capacitor runs on the garbage. The car itself still runs on regular old unleaded. No idea how that’s generating the power of hovering off the ground, but it’s not like them skateboards had gas tanks so I dunno.

Doc says that, but I remember the car refusing to start with the “plutonium chamber empty” message blinking in 1955 before Marty hid it behind the billboard in the first movie.

[-]

Zeke688@reddit

‘There’s something wrong with the starter, so hid it… here.’ That’s what Marty tells Doc when he shows him the delorean the first time. Yes, the flux capacitor is also empty of plutonium at the time, but these are unrelated issues. I don’t remember if they actually work on (or remember to work on) the starter at all because Doc is so focused on literally harnessing the lightning.Marty struggles to start it when he is about to get struck by lightning too.

Also makes sense for a DeLorean to have mechanical issues. They were notorious for shoddy build quality.

[-]

Zeke688@reddit

I have always thought that was why they included the bit about the starter, the plot doesn’t need it. 🤣

[-]

goat_penis_souffle@reddit

That makes perfect sense, you are correct.

[-]

Zeke688@reddit

I may have watched these films 20 times in my youth. 😆

Fair enough

It's because Vermin Supreme has achieved peak tie wearing prowess. None of us will ever come close so nobody tries.

A friend of mine used to own Griff's BMW and hoverboard. They were awesome.

It’s so funny that their prediction was that we’d wear more ties instead of fewer ties.

[-]

humanist-misanthrope@reddit

I’m with you since ties are hands down the dumbest and most useless attire. It’s like hey you know what makes you look more successful and trustworthy, a silk noose. Back to the Future images doubles silk nooses as peak business fashion.

I’m in a situation where my only option is to go back into an office and I decided if that happens I will start wearing a clip on. I plan to be the laziest and most slovenly dressed person. Business attire is so pointless.

Future Marty’s boss is Japanese, presumably Marty is working for a company headquartered in Japan. The double tie is a solid mix of business attire and r/WTFJapan.

And a solid call back in Part 3 by 1955 Doc:

1955 Doc: No wonder this circuit failed. It’s made in Japan.

Marty: All the best stuff is made in Japan.
