40 Times People Spotted Things That Did Not Age Well And Decided To Share Them On The Internet (New Pics)
Oh… irony, how sweet you are sometimes. You know how the things we say can come back to haunt us? The test of time is a tough nut to crack, and this time, it’s all about failing. The Facebook page Posts That Did Not Age Well is a hell on earth, showing embarrassing moments when quotes, comments, and everything else you saw online some time ago contradicts itself or completely misses the mark.
There’s aging like fine wine and then there’s aging like milk, and the posts here definitely fall into the latter. Some of these future predictions look so utterly ridiculous today, it may make you wonder what the heck they were thinkin’. From astounding Trump tweets to people who jinxed everything for the rest of us, there’s plenty here that’ll make you feel like dying inside.
So, let’s go down this memory lane together and take a look at everything that has gone wrong lately. If you don’t die from cringe in the meantime, be sure to check out part 1 after.

This is how science works, people. Preliminary findings are overruled when new, better evidence come out. This just shows scientists aren't coerced to toe the official line, as some claim.
If humans could see the future, this post would probably have not existed. Because there’s nothing quite like failing the test of time. All the things you believed and said look more or less absurd in retrospect. Unless your job is predicting the future for a living.
Mysterious as it sounds, seeing what comes next is complex, critical, and quite a different job than the myths suggest. Paul Saffo, a technology forecaster in Silicon Valley, wrote in a piece for Harvard Business Review that “prediction is concerned with future certainty.” And that alone sounds quite paradoxical.

Nothing But The Truth
Paul explains further: “forecasting looks at how hidden currents in the present signal possible changes in direction for companies, societies, or the world at large.” Thus the goal of forecasting is to “identify the full range of possibilities.”
Plus, “unlike a prediction, a forecast must have a logic to it,” says Paul. That means that the forecaster must always be able to articulate, explain, and defend this logic. “That’s what lifts forecasting out of the dark realm of superstition,” argues Paul. In the end, forecasting is “nothing more (nor less) than the systematic and disciplined application of common sense.” And that common sense is something we all have.

Only hindsight can spot fascism rising. Look at the US right now. Thankfully, it's still not too late if the grown ups actually act.

Well, things like these help us understand how they allowed for all that madness to happen in the first place.
People said very similar things about Trump when he became president: he can't do that much damage, there are checks and balances and laws to prevents him from doing whatever he wants......
Take heed of this. History is repeating itself, whether you believe it or not. Complacency can be hazardous to everyone’s health.
Germany was sick of the coalition government that was put in place after WWI, and some people put Hitler in as chancellor because they thought he could be controlled
Why does it seem like a recent event?

Wall Street loves a dictator. Look at the history of South and Central America and US influence. A perversion of the Madison Doctrine at it's finest.
To be fair, he got 6 good years in before he screwed it all up. He was anti-socialist, pro-privatisation, so the financial class loved him right up until the day he invaded one to many countries.
Indeed, tyrants do great things for the economy. Until they don't.

You can pin this alongside all the "experts" that said Trump would never win, or that Brexit will never happen. I'll never trust polls again.
Scary, will we ever learn some things are more important than the stock market?
Much of big business, in Germany and overseas genuinely welcomed Hitler coming to power. Hitler was a thoroughly modern politician- he couldn't have run his operation without raising millions in political donations. And to do that, he needed wealthy backers.
So the big corporations were cool with him ... that sounds familiar
This was said to the UK public in between lifting ones head from that hole in the sand

I read an interview sometime in the recent years with the son of the man who invented plastic bags. He said that, if his father knew that people use a plastic bag once and then immediately throw it away, he would have been horrified and saddened. The reason the man invented plastic bags was specifically so they could be reused over and over again

A lot of people underestimated and still underestimate the dangers of Corona and they think that the media are lying to them. ( Wonder who gave them that idea??). If history repeats itself and people behave like they behaved during the Spanish Flu, there are going to be plenty mass graves all over the world.

I still have a huge (legit) DVD collection. It's one of the most infuriating things having to sit through these 'anti-pirate' adverts that can't be fast-forwarded. That didn't do their cause any good at all, just made me want to buy pirated films instead, which don't have the adverts! Grr...

If Trump kept his mouth shut, this list would be much shorter, and less entertaining.
If Trump kept his mouth shut, we would have to worry about him for a second term. Oops, am I going to be on this list in a year?!?!?

Several items on this list could start their own, called "Trump being a dumbass."
We supposed in the previous 10 years the world would get better by 2020. Now, we face the awful situation of coronavirus and we pay the heavy price for the political indifference of chinese regarding the bad timing of safety mesaures.
Why wasn't the prediction of the second coming of Christ in the Bible mentioned? He's 20 years late already!
It seems there's something wrong with the millennial and centennial concept of "maturing." Things do not mature, unless they're organic produce. You mature. The series "Friends" doesn't need to mature for you to enjoy it in 2020. You need to mature as a person and recognize that things, even us too, belong to specific time contexts, and must be understood within those contexts. The millennial and centennial concept of "maturing" aims to erase that, as it aims to retroactively impose on the past the values and knowledge of the present. That is utterly wrong.
I recall certain British candidate said they are prepared to host the 2020 Olympic if Tokyo can't host it. Too bad he didn't prepare for the COVID-19 as Japan does.
This sure didn't show any bias or negativity towards a political ideology at all. When you use CNN as anything as being slightly credible you have already lost. Before anyone responds with something stupid just know I was in the Army in Iraq and saw firsthand just how trustworthy that propaganda spewing rag really is. Way to go fueling the echo chambers though I'm sure it's going to do a lot of good to promote proper discourse. It's the same thing that is destroying every social media platform but go ahead I'm sure it will work for this page!
All of these Trump haters should quit their bitching and check their facts. Calling him a pu$$y-grabber is an outright lie because he never said he did that. All of you are making up lies to justify your hate and you don't even know why you hate him.
i enjoy a lot of content on this sight, but it is getting harder and harder to want to come cruise the articles with how overtly LEFT to FAR LEFT much of the content is. There is no balance. I have never seen anything pro Conservative or Pro Trump anywhere besides the comment section.... then it gets down voted into oblivion. its a shame.
It really is, but the fact that Trump was elected proves that more people support him than the people that are just whining on the internet because they're angry that he exists. They'll use anything they can fire at him, then get defensive if anyone calls them out. And ever single person that downvotes this will just prove my point even further, so downvote away!
