letters to crushes I smile a lot. And, if I'm being honest, it's more out of habit than anything. I smile when a teacher calls on me and I don't know the answer, and I smile at the pretty girls with their bright red lipstick hanging on to the boys with the slicked over hair, and I smiled during my grandfather's funeral while I starred blankly at his closed casket, because his body was too deterriorated by disease to be seen. You were the only one to ask me why I smile. You didn't say it in an intrusive way, just a slightly curious one, despite the fact I hardly knew you at the time, just sharing a class once a week. I had never really seen you smile before, and to be honest I never really wanted to; you always wore a smirk, and it just seemed to fit your face better, just looked a bit more natural. But, regardless, you asked me, looking at me as if I held this secret to the universe, as if I was going to unlock something within you with some unworldly advice.

Kongregate Top 10 des prédictions de Retour vers le Futur 2 qui ne se sont pas (encore) réalisées Dans son voyage futuriste au sein de la lointaine année 2015, Marty MacFly découvrait le 21 octobre les nouveautés et les spécificités du monde moderne, marqué par une avancée technologique spectaculaire et par une évolution stylistique difficilement prévisible. L'heure des comptes est arrivée : il reste (un peu moins de) trois ans aux matières grises les plus éminentes de la planète pour se mettre à la hauteur de l'univers 2015 imaginé par Robert Zemeckis. État des lieux... L'Hoverboard Moyen de transport favori de Marty MacFly dans le deuxième opus de Retour vers le futur, ce skate planeur qui permet à son usager de demeurer en altitude à quelques centimètres du sol, a dépassé la fiction et pénétré dans le monde de la réalité grâce à l'Université Paris-Diderot qui a créé un objet semblable en octobre 2011 (voir la vidéo).
