Technology develops so fast that it can scramble your brain trying to keep up with it.
And, as you already know, things come and go all the time.
AskReddit users shared what they think won’t exist in 25 years.
Let’s see what they had to say.
1. Hmmmm…
“The Rolling Stones.
I don’t think Keith Richards has been really alive for quite some time.
Just a walking guitar-playing zombie.”
2. That’s good.
“A positive one: the hole in the ozone layer.
In 1996 it was just starting to stabilize and has since become smaller than it was when we first discovered it in 1982.”
3. I hope you’re wrong.
“Ozzy Osbourne…..maybe.
I mean he’s lasted this long. So it’ll be interesting to see what takes him in the end.”
4. The King.
“I have this working theory that the singer Elvis is just starting to be culturally forgotten.
When I was younger I used to see Elvis references every now and again. He was pretty huge I guess, even though he was way before my time. Now I swear it has been years since I’ve heard or seen him referenced.
To test this theory I ask people if they ‘remember’ Elvis, and I get the total ‘ ohhh yea , Elvis’ that you might get from some obscure show from the 90’s.”
5. Maybe…
“Cable TV.
It’s being replaced and the price will skyrocket with bundles.”
6. Don’t ever forget about it.
“WWII vets/Holocaust survivors.
Which will probably make it that much easier for deniers.
History repeats itself.”
7. That would suck.
“Sharks.
They are endangered even though they aren’t dangerous to humans. They k**l about 10 humans per year and a majority of it is accidental.
They are smart, curious creatures that really deserve more love. They are also important for the ecosystem.”
8. They’re still around?
“Telephone books.
They’re already on the decline.
Large phone directory companies started the move to online directories decades ago, leaving the market for smaller companies.”
9. Oh, boy…
“Hopefully influencers.
They’ll convert their influencer status into being politicians in the near future.”
10. A darn shame.
“Social Security.
You better bet it’ll still be taken out of your checks though.”
11. Tragedy.
“The Great Barrier Reef.
Because the government is horrible and they love money.”
12. All this stuff.
“Paper currency, audio alarm clocks, half the amount of fossil fuel vehicles, most manned grocery stores, cable charging.”
13. You think so?
“Daylight Savings Time.
Correct me if I’m wrong but it really doesn’t serve a purpose.”
14. Oh, great…
“Democracy, social freedoms, privacy, any form of objective reasoning, affordable housing of any kind, etc.”
