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.

Yeah, but if the incompetent president has a majority in the Senate, the process dies on it's a*s.

He absolutely was. He has always been a Democrat and when he ran for president he made the comment that if he ever ran he would run Republican because those idiots would believe anything. He said that about his own political party.

Listen, if anyone had the 'audacity' to confront him about this tweet he'd point blank deny ever having posted it! Then he would say that it is totally irrelevant anyway because him and his team (mainly him though!) are doing a 'good job'! He has the most severe case of selective amnesia I've ever seen! He can't remember what he said a day previously never mind years previously! I've been watching too much fkn Trump lately! I'm fkn Scottish, not American and I've been watching his antics for bloody weeks now - it's hilarious! I just love it when he spits the dummy out! But surely Americans, he should not be promoting any of his business interests and using his position as 'president' to promote them? Is that not illegal? He was fkn pushing that hydroxychloroquine hard in his daily briefings and I said at the time "he has a stake in the company that makes this drug", then heard the other day there that he actually does have a financial stake in it! Impeach him!

Yes, President Trump was indeed impeached for obstruction of justice and misuse of presidential power. All in all, Trump's entire presidency has been one of gross incompetence, but that's not really wording one can put down on an impeachment form. There would have been more charges but the House was fighting a losing battle with an out-of-control president who refused to comply with supoenas, refused to turn over evidence, refused to testify and interfered with many other witnesses, even threatening those witnesses, plus he had the backing of a Republican-controlled Senate the entire way who would not allow witnesses and refused to remove him from office for the crimes he was found guilty of.

Yes, but if a myopic "leader" refuses to support his\her constituents the process can be pre-empted. But we DARE NOT avoid challenging those individuals in their complacency. Americans have the power of the vote, if one does not vote...that one doesn't get to complain (to me anyway).

Didn't Benjamin Franklin want to enforce a rule that the American people should be allowed to consider assassination as a way to get rid of a President (only if there was no other way) if he were too obnoxious? Like, in case Alexander Hamilton became President or something

Obama was an incompetent, warmongering fool with a lateral criminal(Hilery Clinton) in his team... And most of the stuff you lot blame trump for Obama, George and bill have already done before him, yet he gets the flack. Honestly those with trump derangement syndrome do some actual reserch and don't be an NPC who spouts what the media say. His impeachment was illigal with no basis for it and I am glad it was overturned.

It's a direct quote of Trump. Are you stupid or something? Can you not see that this fascist orange c**t is completely incompetent? He ignored the threat for months. He de-funded the CDC, and pandemic response organizations. People are suffering and dying because of Trump, and you are whining about propaganda? You are inconsiderate, dumb, and rude.

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.

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.”

ADVERTISEMENT

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.

Trump couldn't bear that Obama was better than him at anything, so rose to the occasion and proved himself wrong.

It has been 19 years, and my heart still aches every time I see the NYC skyline. For me it has been gone longer than it existed (I was born in the 80s), but the Twin Towers will always be iconic, quintessentially New York.

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.
