What Rational Sentence Could You Say Today That Would Sound Insane 20 Years Ago? People Responded.

It’s pretty crazy to think about all the ways the world and the United States have changed dramatically in the last 20 years.

Things we never could have imagined are now pretty commonplace…some of them good and some of them really, really bad.

People on AskReddit talked about rational sentences they could say today that would sound totally crazy 20 years ago.

Let’s take a look, shall we?

14. How dare you!

“I f**king h**e Bill Cosby.

I hope he suffers for the rest of his miserable life.”
