Breaking news from the Squid Research Lab: We’ve just received this exclusive photograph that shows a dinosaur marching onto the set of Futurama. This can only mean one thing: IT’S SPLATFEST TIME!

Beginning tomorrow, head to the Inkopolis Plaza to vote on our newest theme: Would you rather travel to the past or the future? We realize this is a tough decision, so we’ve made a pros and cons list for you to consider:

 

Past Pros:

  • Dinosaurs are totally sweet. 
  • It’s easier to stay on your Paleo diet in the Paleolithic era.
  • Caveman fashion was pretty fresh, assuming The Flintstones is an accurate documentation.

 

Past Cons:

  • Dinosaurs might eat you. 
  • No burgers OR pizza. 
  • Your mom might ask you to be her date to the Enchantment Under the Sea dance.

 

Future Pros:

  • Your best friend could be a robot. 
  • Holodecks provide hours of entertainment, all without needing to leave your house! 
  • Transportation potentially seems cooler: Rocketships? Scotty beaming you up?

 

Future Cons:

  • Robots might have gained intelligence and decided they’re not friendly.
  • What happens if your transporter makes a mistake and mixes you up with someone else? I think we’ve all seen The Fly enough times to know what could happen… 
  • All food now comes in the form of an affordable and widely available pill, BUT IT’S ONLY AVAILABLE IN SQUID FLAVOR.
