Time is not just relative, it gives a whole new perspective of things that wasn't there. Think of it as an ultimate test to determine whether stuff is legit or not. And while some things remain unchanged, like the world still hailing Keanu Reeves, others turn sour, like an acidic vinegar you’d never, ever dare to call wine.
This phenomenon is known as poorly aged things, which means they not only didn’t get better over time, they got way worse to the point of passing cringe or meeting regrets. So in order to see some of the best of the worst real-life examples, we took a visit to the “Poorly Aged Things” Twitter account that does precisely what it says: “showcases poorly-aged things and blinx.”
With 719.9K followers and counting, it offers some of the most remarkable examples of feeling remorse over something you were honestly proud of before. How did this 180° change happen? I told you, it’s all time’s fault.

Load More Replies...Part of the beauty (and the horror!) of the world we live in is that things are for the most part unforeseeable. I mean, nobody would have believed you if, back in 2018, you told us there was the greatest pandemic in modern history right around the corner that would forever change our lives as we were used to. But on 31 December 2019 (it’s hard to believe it was two years ago!) the coronavirus was first reported from Wuhan, China, from which it rapidly spread around the globe.
But what if we could have known it prior to the outbreak actually happening? Could we have changed the debilitating course of events that followed? The question may never have answers, but we can have a look at what it takes to make predictions about the future, and how accurate they actually are.
characteristics of this new disease include orange spray tans, red hats, open racism, entitlement and a complete disregard for facts and reality. Almost half the US population has succumbed to this terrible disease.

He worked for justice in Africa, was a field doctor during a war, got some falsely accused poop!e exonerated ( saving them from death penalty) and was knighted for his services. He was never suspected of being the Ripper, but a member of the royal family was. Is it fake news on BP today?
And as a doctor that was addicted to opium... Conspiracy theory even suggests he was actually Jack the Ripper... He was away all week in his office, home only on weekends and holidays and he lived close to Whitechapel, London... on top of that, he hated his mother who he saw as a prostitute (cause of her promicuous lifestyle)

It was a part of sci-fi culture for decades, that kids would be "homeschooled" via computers. Just like rocket ships and flying cars. It all comes true sooner or later.
If you've never heard of superforecasting, it’s the practice of prediction that covers everything from whether a currency will become stronger, one country will invade another, or there will be civil unrest in a city. Superforecasters calculate the probability of something happening and then adjust that as circumstances change. In this way, they’re able to come up with consistent predictions.
But it’s much more complex than that. According to Bloomberg, superforecasters did not accurately predict Brexit, putting the chances of a Leave vote at 23% in June 2016—the month of the referendum. Their predicted figure had been higher a few months previously but they had adjusted the likelihood downwards, reports the BBC.
I look forward for the day in which "millions give up on" Daily Mail.
Never believe anything you read in the Daily Fascist-- uh, I mean the Daily Mail.
My (American) dad calls it “imported toilet paper.”
Load More Replies...The article was dated 6 Dec 2000. By that time internet was already in full swing. Granted most people were using dial-up modems. But the sentiments, even back then was this is the way forward. This is how the future is going to look like. Had that article been published 5 years earlier (circa 1995), it may have been more believable. World wide web was just gaining traction. Many people were still in the learning stage back then.
In fairness to the Daily Mail, they often do get it very wrong. "Hurrah for the Brownshirts" was a great pro fascist headline. (Not much has changed to be fair)
Well, now we just use it to pick fights with strangers and watch porn, so... don't know which is better.

Blockbuster was given the chance to buy Netflix for 1 million dollars. They said no
When Netflix started losing money in their early days, the two owners made several offers to sell out to Blockbuster for $50 million in 2000. Blockbuster passed because they didn’t want to buy a company that was hemorrhaging red ink. The rest is history, and Netflix is now worth over $230 billion. Ironically, 20 years later Netflix has released a documentary titled “The Last Blockbuster” about the one remaining store in Bend, Oregon and how it all fell apart.
Load More Replies...I actually miss going to Blockbuster, we had the best 2 clerks who worked there, probably 18 or 19 and they recommend the best movies, movies I never would have tried on my own. They recommended Requiem for a Dream and Pi, both excellent. I got them to try a couple of British movies that they ended up liking. Plus how much fun was it for kids, on a Friday night, picking out a movie to watch at a sleepover?
Netflix was a mail order dvd service that was not streaming service that we know today. One would have to send back the picked movies that you rented through the mail.
Load More Replies...Being a superforecaster entails one quintessential personality trait, which is superior analytic ability. Philip Tetlock, the Leonore Annenberg University Professor in Democracy and Citizenship at the University of Pennsylvania, identified many people who could be turned into “superforecasters”—people whose analytic ability is considerably better than random people (or who, in financial analyst terms, “beat the market”).
It doesn’t mean trusting your gut is all there is, since analysts have to do many other things besides just forecast, but it surely helps, Philip argues. Other personality traits for a superforecaster include being intelligent, playing games and solving puzzles, being able to pragmatically use other people’s ideas, and being open-minded to new data which shows up.
Indeed, but remember this is from these strange 4 years when the USA were the absolute greatest country of the world in quite every topic.
Load More Replies...The US was very well prepared. The Obama administration left an entire playbook with steps on how to respond, and there were early warning systems set up across Asia. The T***p administration cancelled it all. Plus Jared Effing Kushner was put in charge of supply chain administration and literally had interns with Gmail accounts trying to contact firms in China to source PPE. All of them should be investigated and, depending on the evidence gathered, charged with manslaughter or negligent homicide.
All of this right here. There were plans. There were smart people who, if followed, we could have less than half the deaths we have today. Our leaders didn't follow the preparation.
Load More Replies...I totally agree! USA is still more prepared than many in theory! The execution has to do with the leader though
Load More Replies...apparently, the type of leader is more important than how rich their countries are
An when you put it like that, it really does make sense. Having a plan and following through on the plan are two different things. You have to be willing to make the unpopular decisions for long-term benefit - allow the economy to take a major hit in favor of avoiding an even bigger hit later on. And you've got to be willing to make reasonable but maybe not ideal decisions fast rather than discuss the perfect solution for ages. If you can't do those things you're screwed, no matter how "prepared" you are.

Divorce doesn't mean they no longer want to be friends. From what I know of them I can see them staying friends.

Load More Replies...When they made Iron Man, everything was riding on its success. If it had flopped, Marvel would have been forced to sell the rights to all their characters or go bankrupt. Luckily for them, Iron Man did not flop. Another little factoid that I read the other day is that the highest paid actor in the first Iron Man movie was Terrence Howard, who played Rhodey. For undisclosed reasons, he was replaced by Don Cheadle after the first movie.
Sad story. When I heard Marvel was making Spiderman I bought 200 shares of Marvel stock at $7. Sold them around $12 after the movie. When I looked a few years ago after splits and Disney buying them and more splits. If I'd had HODL'd they'd be worth over $50K now. Ouch.
Sony made the right choice. They would not have profited from this deal, as they would not have taken the same approach to the movies that made them the success they were.
I couldn't agree more. Looking at how disney handled star wars makes me feel somethings just have to be left where they are.

The thing that bothers me the most is how bad the last line is. Who thought that would sound good?!
It's a good thing that they banned all advertising for tobacco products. Perhaps in another 20 years smoking has become just as social unacceptable as drunk driving or speeding.
It's pretty much at that point already here in Australia. There are very few places out in public where people are allowed to smoke now.
Load More Replies...I believe less people died from Camels which has more tobacco but less chemicals. Chemicals cause cancer more than tobacco.All the modern ciggies are loaded with chemicals so they can patent their brand. I know 6 Camel smokers that died in their late 80's and 90's. I have never smoked - THANK GOD.
I remember going with my mother to her Dr once. We went into his office and it smelled like a giant ashtray. Which he actually had on his desk......a HUGE round ashtray, piled up with cigarette butts!!
Classic advertising trick. Suppose 1% of doctors smoke. Then you conduct a nationwide survey and stop as soon as you have at least one more count for Camels. Then you can run this ad and claim it's all true.

Load More Replies...She makes a few comments about a controversial topic, and suddenly, everyone goes berserk. I will not say whether I support trans or not, because that is not the point. People are mad at her for expressing an opinion, and they always will be because people are always desperate for a reason for anger, drama, and pettiness. However, refusing to read a book because the author has different views is foolish. The books are great, whether the author is popular or not. We can't just cancel culture because we don't like it.
We can, because we can all choose which values are important to us. For some it's not a big deal, but for others it's a dealbreaker, and they have the right to their feelings - and subsequent actions. I'm in my 30s so I don't particularly care about Harry Potter anymore, but I've stopped watching things with known sexual predators on cast because I don't feel comfortable. I can't get immersed and I don't take any joy from it anymore - so why should I keep watching? Because I would be called "foolish" otherwise?

Load More Replies...He always looks like he’s a drunkard who almost got home, but fell asleep on his stoop, then woke up late and ran to work.
Let the bodies pile up, I don’t care .... is that what you mean ?
HE IS THE GREATEST PRIME MINISTER THE UK HAS HAD IN OVER 50 years so all you moaners get used to it. YOUR COMMENTS CHANGE NOTHING.
Well apart from Covid he has been right. This has been a great year for the UK. WE LEFT THE EU.
And may all the people who died from aids come back and slowly harpoon him for eternity
Load More Replies...Conservative racist misogynistic homophobic shock jock. One of the many things he did on his radio show was to hold a segment called "AIDS update" and he would read a list of gay men that had died from AIDS and mock them. He even set it to music.
Load More Replies...Died too fast, I would have loved him to suffer in agonizing pain for several years.
Load More Replies...The term smokers never hurt anyone is very wrong my grandfather used to smoke and carpooled with a friend for several years and his friend was hospitalized and died due to lung cancer
Their smoke do kill other people and alsonthe planet.

"ALCOHOL ISN'T A DRUG! IT'S LEGAL!" shouts hundreds of morons as they cling to their bottles of beer and cheap wine, ready to jump into their cars and get into a pointless street race cause YOLO.
Load More Replies...I don't get the love for Reagan -- he really put America on this track to hyper-capitalistic dystopia. Destroyed the mental health system, gave the country away to corporations, took down other democracies, the list goes on. Of course he is largely seen as just a puppet figurehead of the Republican Party, but was happily complicit with it all.
...So that's why we're gonna inject coke into the black communities and arrest them for it!
Now to be fair he used the word 'today'. So it's possible that, on the day that he said it, there may not have been any other drugs, of any kind, in the country at all! Meaning he was correct.
Pandemic? ✅ Political extremism from one end to another? ✅ Ongoing genocides? ✅ Maniacs yelling for war? ✅
It was supposed to be the Charleston and Art Deco. It was supposed to be Airships and Ocean Liners. It was supposed to be Women's Rights and Swing.
I have a remote like that today. Netflix is the only streaming service that has stayed on the remote.

Under incompetent T***pian leadership and when millions believe the lies spewing from the right-wing propaganda machine, yes indeed :(
Load More Replies...Whatever happened to that $100 million? Oh yes Trump threw it away by giving it to scammers in Michigan.
And remember: even if people were dropping like flies in the street and corpses piling up on public squares, Trump would never admit it and his cult would follow along. Reality was no power in his head.
She might have done better if she hadn't acted so entitled to be president...that arrogance really leaked through. Still won the popular vote, of course, as people pointed out.

It was the best thing to happen for HBO - they had the chance to take several shorrtcuts to end it quickly. Not so great for the fans though
HBO wanted more episodes, it was the writing team of Benioff and Weiss who decided to wrap it up fast because they were offered a Star Wars gig.
Load More Replies...I'd say I was surprised and quite interested in what happened with Daenerys. The last episode, on the other hand, looked like the ending of a cheap fantasy movie for kids and was utterly disappointing.
I had the weirdest "Mandela effect" moment when they announced his death. I could have sworn he had actually died decades ago and vaguely remember a few 9gag posts about it back when I was in Uni (before 9gag was just a site full of bloody GIFs and videos).
I had that too mostly cause I didn't know who he was.
Load More Replies...They struggled for a while and Jada had a long-term affair with a friend of her teenage son, which Will knew about and wasn't particularly interested in. But they pulled through.
Load More Replies...They weren't wrong. Just underestimated the amount of people who just want to show off.
Having too much music on my phone is s**t because I skip too much, I have around 15gbs of music and that will do until I change it all again.
The best product Apple ever produced. I still use mine, almost every day, but will never waste my money on an iPhone or any of their computer products.
I think this guy means MrBeast, Dream, Fundy, GeorgeNotFound, UHC, Logan Paul, and Markiplier.
Well they WOULD trade... if given the option. Whether they were or weren't remains to be seen.

That's because the game's pedestrian AI is being outstripped by a literal cockroach from 1998.
Honestly i expected way more form CD Project red, I played it on pc so graphic wise it was stunning, But the storytelling was way below par, In the Witcher 3 you have so many small things that can go differently depending on the choices you make, And Cyberpunk just totally threw that out of the window, And the quest themselves felt unfinished, I had really high hopes for Project red but with Cyberpunk it completely went down the drain
the guy who wrote the tweet is the creator of a videogame named undertale, and sans and papyrus are two character in it. also, many many people love both of them and his other characters too
Load More Replies...Is this even a real tweet by him? The account only shows a screenshot and the guy’s had so many fake tweets and fake accounts attributed to him.
What the heck is that even supposed to mean in terms of a nationwide department store chain?
When insulting bald people will start (finally) to be considered body shaming?
James Charles wore a bald cap for a couple of days so everyone thought he was bald
Load More Replies...They were probably making a social comment with this title! Gorillaz is a good band and has great songs
Load More Replies...A three second google search... Speaking of Butch Hartman trending, that brings us to today and the accusations of plagiarism. While the jury seems to be out on whether Hartman has committed textbook plagiarism – as in shamelessly tracing over someone else’s art – or just copied art without tracing, it still looks bad. Butch Hartman was commissioned to draw Mikasa Akerman (from Attack on Titan) and delivered a piece that looked a lot like fanart from a Japanese artist known as @028ton on Twitter. Fans reached out to the original artist and tattled. Told ya, the internet won’t let you get away with anything. Didn’t take long for @028ton to condemn Hartman’s actions. Ouch. While Butch Hartman has remained silent about the latest controversy, the fact remains that his star is on the decline. His once prosperous YouTube channel has been losing subscribers and his most recent uploads barely break 10,000 views. Sure, that’s still a lot of eyeballs, but it’s also a paltry number when compa
Thanks, my three second googling came up with nothing
Load More Replies...Butch Hartman... maybe you heard about his shows "Danny Phantom" or "Fairly Oddparents"??
Load More Replies...I mean, the sentiment's not wrong, but I guess there's more to it than I know?
oh god its HIM. i watched a vid on him recently and I have to say, he's not the best person in the world, that's for sure.
FYI Sonic had a tough time of it and fell into alcohol and drug abuse. He was also seen flytipping at a beauty spot near his home. All of this following the untimely death of Tails, his foxy sidekick, who met his end while performing stunts on a tandem that wasn't built for foxes. Sadly, Sonic never recovered and was last seen living in a trailer park outside Detroit. You're welcome.
Load More Replies...The video is titled "How is Twitter free?" & Twitter isn't completely free anymore. There's the option of locking tweets behind a paywall.

Load More Replies...Turns out Pog Champ believes Trump won the 2020 election and supported the Jan 6 insurgency, thus has been cancelled as a Twitch emoji. Future Poggers emoji will use a different face to make a new Pog Champ.
Load More Replies...From Wikipedia: Some Twitch users in 2020 petitioned for Twitch to remove Ryan Gutierrez as the face of the PogChamp emote, following numerous claims of Gutierrez promoting far-right conspiracies, such as anti-vaccination conspiracies,[17] and spreading misinformation and denial of COVID-19. On January 6, 2021, Twitch announced that they were to remove the original PogChamp emote following comments from Gutierrez on his Twitter page supporting civil unrest for the death of a protestor during the 2021 storming of the United States Capitol. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PogChamp
They are all things people said, or did, that were expected to do well and then failed miserably. Like Bill Gates wishing his wife another happy 25 years - they just announced their divorce like two days ago. Or the guy who sold his bitcoin at $14/coin to just cut his losses - bitcoin is worth over $56,000 per coin today so if he had just left it, he would've been a millionaire.
Load More Replies...I posted on the old IMDB message board before the release of Casino Royale that Craig was terribly miscast, the film would flop and that they wouldn't make another Bond film for a couple of years!
This was a good post for all the reasons i stay with BP. think you should have edited out the one on JK Rowling.
I agree. She has said wrong things and she needs to learn. But the hate that the woman is experienced is crazy. You cant preach for tolerance and then be extremely hateful with others.
