The Future's Gone Wrong

What would happen in the future? Flying spaceships? Strict Government? Well, what if some things went the other way around--like clothing?

"#@$%!" Mike hissed as he wore the skin-tight jumpsuit the government required them to wear. He checked himself out in the mirror. D****t, the bulge on his crotch was very visible. Cursed bureaucracy!

He didn't blame them for requiring a suit that protected them from the high levels of UV rays there are now on Earth (stupid ancestors! Why didn't you do something about this?!) but because they couldn't choose any more better design than the tight, unfashionable, and humiliating one that is 'jumpsuit'. And even worse, he could get jailed for ten years! Ten years for not wearing s****y clothing! Where is the freakin' freedom there, huh?!

He got out of the house and quickly called for a taxi. It wasn't too long ago that a certain manufacturing house invented flying extruded polystyrene foam, which then led to flying cars... too far off a connection? Well, it's the 2060's for cryin' out loud! That isn't impossible this time!

The taxi zoomed in and he quickly entered, chancing when people are not looking. "AC Corporate, Mister! Hurry, or I'm going to be late!" The driver stared at Mike for a brief moment and drove. D****t, he mumbled. Not even the driver would take him seriously in that outfit. What of his untainted impression now?

They flew to the mile-away building in three minutes, and he got out in an almost equally fast pace. He entered the office holding the last dignity he could muster.

"Mike?" Jessie, the one in the front desk called out; the other employees stared at Mike as well, "Excited much? The law isn't effective until tomorrow!"

Mike gaped when he realized they were still wearing suits and pencil skirts.

"Nice one down there, though." Jessie winked and Mike fainted in humiliation.

bahahahahaha :D man you're awesome!

Hahaha fashionably early my man Mike :P great write as always I enjoy the humor and the quirky twists at the end :P Enjoyed it a lot, good luck at the contest, give this a re-read and see if you can spot any grammatical errors bro.

but because they couldn't choose any more better design.
(I'd phrase it as but because they couldn't choose better designs: tight, unfashionable, humiliating. ) any more better gives the sense that they've chosen better designs but they couldn't think of more, giving them credit yet lacking in this circumstance. (And on top of it all, he could get jailed for 10 years!) just a suggestion. < 3

[KeeD]

or (an even worse, he could get jailed for 10 years!) (despite all that, he could get jailed for 10 years!) (worst of all, he could get jailed for 10 years!)

[Monster ^.^]

yeah, thanks! I've done something about them now!

Certainly, 'The Future's Gone Wrong', otherwise, air traffic would be much faster than you imagined. But, "Nice one down there, though."

This is fine; you should do well in the contest. Some of the grammar isn't technically correct. But it has a sound which fits this futuristic tale.
