I definitely agree with Andrew’s thoughts on “Just Do It”. The conclusion of the story made me feel very sympathetic for Alex because she had absolutely no input on a decision which changed her life forever. She ended up marrying Tom simply because he shot her with a dart that made her think she wanted to marry him. This completely neglected her right to make her own life decisions.
Like Andrew said I was surprised when I realized how feasible this future is. The way that the author used possible future versions of current places and companies was almost eerie. People are now driving H5 Hummers which are nearly the size of fire trucks, they eat at a fast food chain which serves awful food and uses a clown as a logo, and companies are now conglomerates of today’s companies.
