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.

yeah well even if they DID buy the rights to ALL of the characters doesn't mean they would have done anything worth a s**t with them.

They were right at the time. It was the great job they did with their spider-man movie that opened the public up to the idea of good quality superhero films (that and the first x-men film). Up until that point comic book adaptations had a terrible reputation. The MCU came on the back of those early successes.

They wouldn't have known what to do with them... They may have done a good job with the 22 first Spiderman movies, but the other ones couldn't compare to what Marvel did to have the MCU or Fox with the X-men. Now that they're working with Marvel, the Spiderman franchise looks like something again.

Yeah, we kinda do "give a s**t" about the other Marvel characters. (As most nerds do). One thing we've always admired it the "female empowerment" aspect. Our new favorite is Captain Marvel (it varies, I will admit). We just watched the Marvel movies in chronological order. When we got to Spider Man we decided to rent it, and it was so incredibly stupid (we had teenagers and are SO over them) we literally only watched about 15 minutes before shutting it off. Sure there's some of the storyline we had to look up (not much!). We're not big Hulk fans either, so we didn't watch any of those - his storyline is pretty much known. But of the 20 or so movies we DID watch? Sony blew it BIG TIME.

This actually aged well for us! coz if they did buy it then, we not have have the Marvel we love now. mainly because if they don't like it they won't even make an effort to improve it. no movies or anything.
Brent Hollett 5 years ago
I mean... they were right. And they'd have proved themselves right if they did buy them. Sony could never have made the MCU.
Ahkilah Adams 5 years ago
Even if they'd bought the rights, it doesnt mean their movies would have been the same way, or would have done as well as they have. They could have bought the rights and made terrible movies.

Exactly. No one cared about them until they got movies with that sweet Disney financing.

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.

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.

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.

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!
