Reddit's /r/agedlikemilk is an interesting section of the internet, serving as a digital archive that captures moments, statements, and inventions that failed to stand the test of time, and sometimes even developed new, somewhat ironic meanings. We've all eaten our own words in our lives before, whether it's not being able to fulfill a promise you made a very long time ago, or going against a specific principle that you set for yourself, it's in our human nature to defy the rules that we set for ourselves. That is the beauty of the human experience.

This collection showcases many examples of people doing just that, with posts that aged quite poorly, relative to the rapid pace of change in society. Each post is a testament to the fleeting nature of cultural relevance and how almost anything and everything can change depending on the time that it was released in.
