Because everything in her home is waterproof, the housewife of 2000 can do her daily cleaning with a hose.

Forget the flying car, I want THAT. (and I suspect a large number of other guys living alone do too)

What do they mean by "daily"?

Works fine until they run out of water.

Well, that sounds cozy.

Wouldn't so much water short circuit the robot maid that every housewife has because everything is so high-tech?

I wish that actually came about. You have no idea.

What kind of messy bitch is she that she has to hose down her furniture every single day?

And speaking of robot cleaners, I saw something on the net the other day where someone's cat or dog had pooped and then their Roomba spread it through every room in the apartment. I do not know if kittens were riding it at the time.

I assume that In The Future, everyone is constantly oozing, from exposure to toxins, from the protein-vat diet, or from The Singularity.

Senyar made me laugh out loud!

I would not want to be the housewife of 1, nevermind 2000.

Notice that it's The Future, but of course the task of cleaning still falls to women.

Futurists always did better with technology predictions than social ones. Clarke and Kubrick did a great job with the tech stuff in 2001 (there's even an iPod) but theirs was an all white future with the men in charge and all the women are stewardesses or receptionists.
