A man wearing a wearable display device over one eye tells a skeptical-looking woman, "With this device, I can have all sorts of information beamed directly into my eye." She asks, "What sort of information?" He hesitates and answers, "Like... discounts at Starbucks. And... weather reports?" A caption beneath the panel reads: "Real life is bullshit." The joke skewers the underwhelming gap between hype and reality for augmented-reality eyewear. The votey is a handwritten note that reads: "for posterity: This joke about Google Glass was out of date on day one."
