Contrary to the scathing opinions of TikTok teens, there is very much such a thing as aging gracefully. A nice vintage merlot. Ageless superstar Anne Hathaway. Heck, the rich-crystalized cheeses we've paid an arm and a leg to feature on our charcuterie boards. Yet among all the items on this long list, one entry is conspicuously MIA — several posts that managed to all-too-accurately predict the future.
From iCarly's bizarre — and legally questionable — ad campaigns to the entirety of 2010's Get Him to the Greek, here are 22 posts and memes that have aged like milk.
