People say that it’s easy to be right but even easier to be wrong. More often than not, people forget to be careful about what they say online. Quickly typing a few nonsense sentences and pressing "share" might seem like a great idea at the time, but the truth is, they might stay on the internet forever.
The online community called Aged Like Milk is here to remind you of that. As the moderators write in their description, it’s "a subreddit dedicated to all those things in media and elsewhere that didn’t stand the test of time, at all." More than 795k members are on a mission to find and document ridiculous posts that quickly turned sour.
Take a look at some of the worst takes Bored Panda has collected from this group and upvote your favorite ones. Also, if you’re hungry for more examples of how people’s opinions came back to bite them, be sure to check out Part 1 of this post right here.

According to Know Your Meme, "aged like milk" is a catchphrase that mainly describes social media posts that have grown increasingly troublesome since their inception. When people throw their opinions left and right, some of them are bound to be wrong. Well, they might look fine at the time, but time truly shows which beliefs aged poorly by completely breaking modern social norms.
While the origin of the phrase is unknown, the earliest usage comes from a 2006 comedy special Jeff Dunham: Arguing with Myself. A puppet called Walter said "She's aging like milk!" in one part of the dialog. Since then, the clip received more than 4.2M views on YouTube and quickly spread to other platforms, forums, and threads.

I’ve Never Met A Single Adult Without One
I worked as a pizza delivery driver in the 90s and learned to do arithmetic in my head to make change. I still do this. Give me two three digit numbers and I can give you an answer BEFORE you pull your phone out, open the app and punch in the numbers.
I wish my brain worked like that. My husband is like you. I'm envious. For the rest of us, the calculator helps immensely.

I detest text that is written in a random assortment of upper and lower case.
For blind people it can be a nightmare - they use screen readers that speak out 'upper case L lower case a' because it doesn't recognise it as a single word. Well, the screen reader that a colleague of mine used. Maybe some are better now.

"Wikipedia is an unreliable source of information, anybody can edit it!" -2010s teachers who don't know the scientific method.
Is that like the rhythm method? Ahem. Sorry... having a flippant moment.

Mine said that, and went one further; she told me I'd never become a nurse, as I didn't have drive, ambition, and intellect. She pushed me to pursue English instead. Which i quickly quit. Five years later, my art teacher had a massive stroke. My maths teacher almost died when she saw me, the only RN on the ward, responsible for 14 lives. 👍🏼
Good for you!! And her presumably your art teacher once you started looking after her! Teachers should never say things like that to children. Children are often so much more than they appear in classes.

Yup--I'm a programmer. Do I do math in my work? Almost never--what I need to know for my job is **how** to do it. I have to understand what I'm ordering the computer to do (which in practice amounts to everything I learned in school before calculus), but I almost never actually have to do more than addition. (Although I do have to be comfortable working in hexadecimal--something I never learned in school.)

We were told that we wouldn't have a calculator, but the teacher would be mad if we didn't show our work, but most adults didn't carry paper and pencil around at all times to do their calculations.
There were calculator watches in the 80s. They were smaller than the watch that I am currently wearing and it doesn't do math.
That's exactly how I picture my teachers now when I think back on them
i dont think your eyes are supposed to invert like that ( ._.")
Why on earth to people mix case on words it just makes them look stupid
Not lying, just unaware of the technological revolution that was about to sweep through our society.
A handheld computer in your hand? With a touch sensitive screen? You've been watching too much Star Trek!
That s**t was super dated even before cellphone were everywhere. I had on a calculator casio watch and called out my teachers b******t
well actuly it said 90s cellphones weren't invented yet so they did not know
learning the basics of math also helps you make educated guesses when shopping, understanding how the world is linked, understanding the answer the calculator came up with, etc. It's worthwhile to know and understand those basics.
And still many people don't use it. And the teachers weren't lying, it wasn't something to expect.
I will take this a step further and have an actual calculator with me at all times, not just a phone. I will sleep with it if I have to to prove my point.
I remember being told this growing up too! Teachers, what do they know?! LOL
My teacher combats this by saying 'yOu WoN't aLwAyS HaVe A pHoNe In YoUr PoCkEt'
How is it a lie? Teachers didn't know what the technology would bring.
WTF is wrong with his eyes! I don't think it's his pocket he's got his calculator in 🙄
A Daily Mail Article From December, 2000 (Reupload)
There's a reason it's called the Daily Fail. Consistently on the wrong side of history since the day it was founded. This is the newspaper that supported the rise of the Na zi s, opposed women's rights, denied (and still does) the existence of climate change... A couple of weeks ago they were still publishing articles about the dangerous far-right militias in Ukraine and how Putin was right to be worried about the threat from them...
Sk8 Or Die
If you ever felt slightly embarrassed about something you shared online, don’t worry. After all, social media is the place for us to vent about politics, culture, sports, our personal lives, and more, so you’re definitely not the only person to ever have a bad take. In fact, more than half of Americans (57 percent) say they have social media regrets. One in six routinely rue their decision to post at least once a week, with Millennials being the most regular offenders.

Remember Y2k?
These numbers come from YouGov Omnibus' survey where they asked U.S. citizens about posting or texting something they regret. Many people admitted they were less anxious about sounding silly compared to a few years back. However, they are more worried about damaging their reputation at work — 22 percent said they are concerned that a questionable post might affect their career.
Results also showed that 14 percent of participants feared they may hurt relationships with family members or partners by sharing misguided images or messages. Plus, women were slightly more likely to feel troubled about social media blunders damaging their close relationships than men.

If you’re wondering how to make sure your social media posts won’t come back to bite you, always think twice before sharing something online. Ask yourself if there’s anything in this particular post or comment that could potentially hurt you in the future. Think about whether it might defame a specific view or lifestyle. Also, determine whether your words will actually contribute to the conversation or whether they will only create more noise.

Also, it’s always good to self-reflect and review your older media posts. It’s recommended to delete inactive accounts, provocative or controversial topics and discussions, and anything that might make you look overly cynical or mean. You have a larger audience than you think, so it’s quite easy to overshare and sacrifice your privacy. And just remember, if you ever end up posting something extremely cringe-worthy, there’s a big chance the members of the Aged Like Milk group will pick it up and will make sure to share it with the whole community.

What's worse is the people who didn't make it out of Afghanistan. We're talking about a history of religious violence that has an almost unrivaled brutality in today's world. And we just turned the lions loose on unsuspecting civilians and then shrugged as the lion do what they do. Worse, we gave the Taliban weapons.

Most people rely on their computer’s built-in antivirus program to protect their system. The default antivirus may be able to protect your system against a few offline and online threats. Still, if even one of these threats bypasses your system security, it can be hazardous. So, invest in a third-party antivirus program, namely McAfee. It’s a trusted and well-reputed name in the antivirus space, and millions of people trust this brand. The number of its user keeps on increasing every year.

When I was a child my parents told med to remember, that you cannot unsay what you said. Now parents must also tell their kids that you cannot un-post on the internet.
