243. The US Government decides that a ban on the Sale of Alcohol is not the Solution. The real cause of the problem is Lewdness and Clothing of a Sex accentuating style. As of Monday it is illegal for anyone to wear anything other than Overalls and work-boots. This new ruling forces Women to Wear Overalls just like men.
With Overalls and Work Boots being incredibly common place, Kevin Rowland, of Dexy's Midnight Runners, never decides that "Everybody else is dressing up sort of straight-laced and we come in wearing these and it's like, y'know here we are, a bit of hoedowning is even possible".
Instead, the video clip for Come on Eileen is shot with the band dressing as characters from the Disney Film Tron, which was to be released shortly after, giving the band enough time to view the trailer.
Backed up by such an awesome band, Tron then becomes a runaway success, influencing an entire generation of gamers, programmers, and scientists to put more effort into immersive gaming and Virtual Reality technology, which becomes increasingly prevalent throughout the world.
International disputes are now settled by online wargames, in which professional gamers replace the more traditional soldier in slightly less bloody, yet far more entertaining warfare.
Blizzard Entertainment never bothers to create the Warcraft franchise, having already sold a similar system to various world governments, gaining them far more cash than they know what to do with.
