“COLLECT MY SHINY, METAL…” From the brilliant mind of Matt Groening, Futurama follows hapless but lovable pizza delivery man, Philip J. Fry, who finds himself in the 31st century after he’s accidentally cryogenically frozen for a thousand years. Fry finds work (and love) at Planet Express delivering packages around the galaxy. The animated sitcom ran off and on from 1999 to 2013, quickly gaining a cult following.

WE’RE THANKFUL FOR OUR FRIENDS Still considered one the most popular television shows to binge, Friends continues to make new audiences laugh while being a staple for original fans to come back to time and again. During its 10 year reign from 1994 to 2004, Friends created some of the most memorable and quotable laughs to date. (Joey doesn’t share food.)

In season five’s, “The One with All the Thanksgivings” the gang reminisces about all of their worst Thanksgivings fully equipped with a ton of hilarious flashbacks. We finally get to the bottom of why Chandler’s missing a toe as well as the iconic image of Monica wearing a turkey on her head just before Chandler tells her he loves her. This month’s crate features a pair of turkey socks perfect for wearing while binging all ten seasons with your favorite Friends.

TOP 5

Predictions That Actually Came True 5 DRIVERLESS PIZZA DELIVERY VANS In the Black Mirror episode, “,” people are embedded with “recallers” that allow access to recent memories. While the story centers around a cold hearted killer whose eventual undoing is the recall of a family pet, it’s the driverless pizza van that plows down a pedestrian in an unrelated scene that has people talking. Both Dominos and Pizza Hut have recently been in talks to partner with motor companies in order to create a similar vehicle. Look out (literally) for new driverless delivery services. 4 MECHANICAL BEES “” aired as the season three finale ofBlack Mirror. In an attempt to recover the endangered bee population, robot bees, or “robobees” are created and deployed. In true Black Mirror fashion, the bees are promptly hacked and begin murdering people via an online voting system. With bee deaths on the rise, real life robot bees are in development to combat the shortage. Walmart has just recently filed a patent for a robot bee to help with crop pollination. 3 DIGITAL CONTACT LENSES ‘The Entire History of You” tells the story of what could happen if we were able to record and re-watch every moment in our lives via contact lens. Needless to say, the infinite ways to use that information could be obsessively dangerous and even deadly. Sony previously patented a contact lens with the ability to snap a pic and eventually record everything you see. This idea is either brilliant or brilliantly problematic. 2 ANIMOIJIS In season two, Black Mirror gave us some insight on how creepy it can be to mirror your voice and expressions through an animated 3D animal in “.” The episode centers around a failed comedian who runs for office through the image of a cartoon bear named Waldo. Things quickly spiral out of control as Waldo’s popularity evolves into a dictatorship of sorts. The iPhone X offers a similar feature with Animojis, which let you create an animal avatar of yourself. Sounds harmless, but we’ll see. 1 SOCIAL RATING SYSTEM One of Black Mirror’s most popular episodes, “” follows the story of Lacie, who lives in a world where every social interaction throughout the day is rated on a 1-5 scale. The higher your score, the higher your quality of life. As Lacie’s problems start to snowball, we’re witness to her descent into the depths of a “low rated” life. China has developed a similar system called Social Credit that ranks you based on your behavior and decisions in society. Beware, infractions include bad driving, posting fake news, and buying too many video games.
