The future turned out a whole lot differently than people expected. For example, Simon Newcomb, a Canadian-American astronomer and mathematician, said: "Flight by machines heavier than air is unpractical and insignificant, if not utterly impossible." 18 months later, the Wright Brothers flew a Kittyhawk. To prove that you can't reallyknow what's going to happen, Bored Panda has compiled a list of things that seemed OK at the time, but have become ridiculously absurd. Like, diet candy AYDS. Or acceptance speeches thanking Harvey Weinstein. Scroll down to check out the entries and if they're not enough, fire up Bored Panda's earlier compilation of 30 Posts From The Past That Did Not Age Well.

Not to praise Google to much, but this still basically true compared to what was the standard at that time. Have you SEEN the search pages of those old search engines? The fact that you can even find the search field without it being obscured by thousands of blinking banners is basically a Google invention

Looking at the past in good on a personal level, too. "Self-Reflective Awareness (SRA) is a 'meta-cognitive' ability, meaning that it involves thinking about and reflecting on one’s own mental processes," Gregg Henriques, Ph.D., wrote. "Someone with good SRA is able to generate a narrative of self that is complex, clear, and multifaceted and is able to communicate that narrative in a way that allows others a much better understanding of where one is coming from."

    There are a number of different facets to SRA, including knowingnow your family story and developmental history, understanding your needs, motivations, and emotions, understanding your defenses and how you handle criticism, understanding your strengths, and weakneses, understanding your beliefs/values and worldview, knowing your pupose in life and how you make meaning, knowing how others see you, knowing the 'cultural bubble' that you live in. Exploring these areas can dramatically increase the results of one's self-reflection.

    This may all sound very complex, but, at its simplest, reflection is about careful thought. It gives the brain an opportunity to pause, untangle and sort through observations and experiences, consider multiple possible interpretations, and create meaning. And every little bit counts. Research by Giada Di Stefano, Francesca Gino, Gary Pisano, and Bradley Staats in call centers showed that employees who spent 15 minutes at the end of the day reflecting about what they learned performed 23% better after 10 days than those who didn't.

    It's not a new phenomenon. The name Vanessa was invented for a book in the 1700s. People liked the book and named their kids Vanessa. Now its a 'real' name and people don't even realise it was a fictional character.

    How they treated her at the end of the last episode ruined the entire series. Here was a woman who fought her entire life against tyranny. Who devoted her life to the freeing of hundreds of thousands of slaves, who was repeatedly taunted by Cersei and made to watch her most beloved companion and friend beheaded by her. When she gave in to a moment of vengeance, it was decided she had to die. Yet Robert started an entire rebellion based on a lie because he had love nuts for another man's woman, and they made him king. F*ck this show for doing that to her while rewarding him for much worse crimes. If they tried to promote female equality in this show, they failed.

    The German version is worse. They dropped "man", just referring to a "black", which adds further to the derogatory tone.

    Ach, Hans, immer dieser Unsinn... Dropping " man" in this (yes, very strange sentence) is grammaticly and semantically100% correct. When these terms were still used "black man" reffered to "Schwarzer" (as "white man" to "Weißer"). "Schwarze Person" is total nonsense and "Mensch dunkler Hautfarbe" has never been used. The literate translation is not the correct one. The correct translation (regardless of the subject) into German is the one written in that textbook.

    By now, probably. But the problem with anti-vaccers is not really that they are more likely to catch a disease. They still profit from the immunization of the general population (which makes less of the disease to go around), but don't contribute to it. That's what bothers me more

The police were seconded to the doctors carrying out immunizations, and it eventually got so that they had to be made mandatory - one quote used in the story was "get a shot or get shot".

All I get from Hollywood and Disney are alcoholics, drug addicts, pedophiles, abusive gender pay gaps, abusive sexism in general, con artists, soul-sellers, and people who abuse minors with evil contracts, drugs, alcohol, and other things that pimp out the minors for profit at the expense of morality. No wonder why former child stars ended up getting psychologically f****d up like Lindsay Lohan, Shirley Temple, Judy Garland, Miley Cyrus, Malcaulay Culkin, Corey Feldman, Corey Haim, and other people. Because Hollywood and Disney are controlled by cruel predators from their heartless corporations.

    A beautiful symbol of positive forces, ruined by its aggressive re-branding in the 1930's.

    It's a totally legit Buddhist symbol that only means good. It's just that the nazis took it for their cause and completely screwed it up.

    The nazis only adopted it, they didn't create the swastika. If people didn't give the image power it would have none. Same as with the N word, if no one gives it power the word will be just that, a word.

    Swastikas rotated at an angle of about 45 degree are Nazi symbols. Otherwise, they originally came from Hinduism. Visit India some day, and you will find them everywhere. They are considered to have a religious significance for Hindus, Jains and Buddhists.

    My mom has an antique quilt with swastikas she inherited. It’s a shame it can’t be displayed because the fabrics are pretty. For anyone who collects quilts, this is the only popular early 1900’s pattern that is affordable.

    I have a friend in her 40s who still has a hard time understanding our improved medical guidelines for eating. In the 1960s and 1970s, the US government really pushed the empty carbs of refined wheat products. I only eat whole-grain products, and target 45 g or less of total carbs per meal.

    Simple carbs are bad. They convert quickly to sugar, and if your body doesn't need that much sugar/energy at the moment, will be stored as fat. Complex carbs, like vegetables & whole wheat, are slower to convert & will release sugar at a slower pace.

    Drug addiction... alcoholism... tried to kidnap an immigrant child from its parents on the street... drinking & driving... converted to Islam then back again... this chick is a walking disaster. Add that to the fact that no one wants to work with her anymore, and - yeah, her life is pretty much in the shitter.

    Lindsay Lohan was corrupted and abused by the entertainment industry of evil people that influenced her when she was a child star. That same industry is known for having alcoholics, drug addicts, pedophiles, lunatics, sadists, masochists, sociopaths, psychopaths, etc. It's not surprising to me that Lindsay became a drug addict, too.

    I still hear the terms 'shrink' and 'nuthouse' used all the time. Mental health treatment is not yet mainstream and wildly unavailable to the majority of those who need it. Not to mention that that field actually attracts the mentally unbalanced to begin with. I don't think it'll ever be given the serious consideration and attention that it needs.

    I don't know anyone who takes psychologists seriously even now. As a matter of fact there is a mounting effort by the medical community to push back on current therapy trends that are extremely harmful to children. Psychologist are still the butt of all jokes, as they should be.

    Right and that is due in part to the people you know being influenced by popular culture to have a negative view of therapy and such. I’ve never been to therapy either but it’s pretty trashy and dumb to act like there’s no benefit to taking mental health seriously. “Harmful to children,” is a trope of an excuse to be afraid of something.

    It's referring to 09/11/2001, the most horrific day in American history. Two airplanes were hijacked by terrorists (Al Qaida) and they flew them in to the 2 World Trade Center towers. In all, over 3,000 people were killed, and both towers collapsed. They also crashed a plane in to the Pentagon. They tried to do the same thing with Flight 77, but heroes knew what was happening, broke in to the cockpit and deliberately crashed the plane in Shanksville, instead of the Capitol It may not have the same impact on the international level, it happened 18 years ago, but most Americans shudder when that date is mentioned. 9-11 is the number to call in an Emergency. Osama Bin Laden chose that date to attack America. It's astounding to me that children born on 9/11/01 will be turning 18 this year. I hope they've been able to live normal lives. As awful as it all was, I don't think this is awful and it shouldn't really be on this list.

    I read somewhere that if you figure in inflation, Avatar is still higher grossing than Endgame; and also if you look at the number of ticket sales. But they desperately did everything they could to dethrone Avatar (launching campaigns, using social media, bringin Endgame fans to buy more then one ticket and to beg their friend to also buy tickets, ...).
