When you can scoop anything you like, as our best buddy (in our unsurprisingly robot-heavy dreams) the PR2 now can, you’ve got some major choices to make. Genetically modified salmon, or the next Android superphone? Spend the weekend thinking about it, and get back to us.

Want to win this scoopable Baarbarian illustration on a T-shirt? It’s easy! The rules: Follow us on Twitter (we’re @PopSci) and retweet our This Week in the Future tweet. One of those lucky retweeters will be chosen to receive a custom T-shirt with this week’s Baarbarian illustration on it, thus making the winner the envy of their friends, coworkers and everyone else with eyes. (Those who would rather not leave things to chance and just pony up some cash for the t-shirt can do that here.) The stories pictured herein:
