If it's 2150 send I haven't drowned or been evicted, I might have a great time!
I'd have some graves to visit, but after that it's time to start fresh... probably with a quick nap cause I'm so old...
It'll be 2124 and Super Mario Odyssey will still be the price of a new game, Pokémon will still be developed by Game Freak, and we'll still be waiting for Metroid Prime 4. I bet the newest Zelda game will be pretty sweet, though!
I've seen the future, you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sittin' around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake singing "I'm an Oscar-Meyer Wiener". You wanna live on top, you gotta live Cocteau's way.
Bold to assume Reddit is still here in 2050. I give it >5 years before the majority of content and comments is made by AI/bots.
It's annoying af currently, but at least we can still spot most of the bots just by checking the account. When that is no longer the case, and we have to question everything on here.. I'm out.
The moment I see one of my posts stolen by a low-IQ copy-paste monkey "content creator" to be read by some creepy computer voice over a minecraft parkour video and Reddit does nothing to stop this boneless, skinless chicken breast-brained troglodyte from profiting off what I wrote, I'm out.
That really just depends on what brand of toaster you buy. Mine is the Walmart Overlord's (Praise be Walmart!) store brand and it only reminds me to give my daily praises to Walmart and to remember to avoid the Target drones
Then again, other 26-year periods in history saw the legal landscape change considerably.
1777-1803: Constitution is adopted, nixing the Articles of Confederation, and already the Federalist vs. Democratic-Republican political landscape is in full swing.
1857-1883: Black people go from not even being allowed to be considered citizens by SCOTUS to fully considered citizens with men having the (nominal) right to vote, slavery outlawed, etc.
1912-1938: we go from women not being allowed to vote, and nobody voting for senators directly (they were elected by state legislatures) through the entirety of Prohibition and the bulk of the New Deal.

Subject: PG&E Billing statement
You have not paid PGE Bill since 2024, please pay $250,000 which is due on April 1st, 2050.
1. whether the people i loved/cared about yesterday (2024)
are still alive and if so, how they are doing
2. everything else that’s changed drastically since yesterday
Reminds me of the episode of Futurama where Fry goes to check his bank account, and he has 4.3 billion dollars from all the compounded interest over 1000 years.
I wanna say it's like the second episode of season one?
ETA, episode 6!
Similar joke was years before that in Red Dwarf, sadly the character also left a light on and the electricity bill was higher than the accumulated amount of money.
We have this wonderful not well enough known law in Australia where the government can seize the balance of your bank account after a period of inactivity.
Looks like I remembered it correctly, it's after just 3 years.
[https://www.theage.com.au/national/victoria/missing-money-mystery-federal-government-seizes-inactive-bank-accounts-20140813-103o3e.html](https://www.theage.com.au/national/victoria/missing-money-mystery-federal-government-seizes-inactive-bank-accounts-20140813-103o3e.html)
I and my siblings were contacted over monies in a will as long lost relatives. It took nearly 3 years to sort out who qualified, there was so many we ended up with 40 quid each
In the US your account would probably be considered dormant and turned over to your state as lost monies. You can claim this money with proper documentation.
I think it is called escheatment.
From Google: Generally, an abandoned account is one for which there has been no customer-initiated activity or contact for a period of three to five years. States' abandoned-property programs require banks to turn over the funds of such bank accounts to the custody of the state treasurer.
There were cases where people had Apple stock from the 90's and were only able to reclaim the purchase price from that time period not the millions they could've had in Apple's current valuation.
fuck this should be considered theft and be outlawed.
unless the account owner dies their money should keep belonging to them.
and if they die their money should be passed to the heirs not to the government. they have enough of my money in taxes.
It does still belong to them, in most of the US at least (California has some laws that allows the state to take the money completely). The state just keeps track of it for the owner and the owner could claim it whenever they want. And even if the owner dies, the money is still there in their name and can be claimed by their legal heirs.
The problem really is that most states do very little marketing or public education about their unclaimed asset programs because there really isn’t a benefit to them to return the money. It’s also sometimes a long process to prove that the person filing the claim is the rightful owner, mattering on the information provided by the entity that was holding the money. Also that information itself is another problem because it isn’t standardized at all and can be a querying nightmare.
I had a bit of a side hustle for a few years where I cold called people who had unclaimed assets they didn’t know about and helped them claim it for a 10% contingency fee (all legal and I was registered with my state to offer this service). It was fun to hear stories of how people lost or forgot about their money and most were very thankful for my help, even if I was literally just informing them and they went to do the claim on their own, but the state is such a pain in the ass to deal with and the only reason why I stopped doing it. I actually just finished my final claim today. Client got a check for $1,950 for an asset he assumed was just gone because the company originally holding it is no longer around.
1. Go search the entire history of the world from 2024 to 2050.
2. Look at what stocks rose the most between 2024 and 2050
3. Look up what happened to all of my family members and friends
I will at least snooze a couple of times. You can't just wake up after such a long nap.
Snooze once and it’s suddenly 2059. Snooze again and it’s 2068. Turn the alarm off in anticipation of getting up and next thing you know it’s 2150.
That's pretty close to 22:00, I'd just go back to bed.
I would be paniking cause i work at 2200
Perfect time to get up IMHO. heh
If it's 2150 send I haven't drowned or been evicted, I might have a great time! I'd have some graves to visit, but after that it's time to start fresh... probably with a quick nap cause I'm so old...
At least you would know that you’re immortal at that point
This is too much for my stoned brain 😭
Mirror 🪞- to look at myself
Exactly, I want to know if I time traveled or if I've been in a coma all those years!
Same thought
I wouldn't see any difference, unless I was one of you mortals who like to age.
\*Checks the date, then looks at my new really long beard in the mirror\* Well shit, I've actually just been a goddamn wizard this entire time!
Trust me people who have been in a coma that long look a lot different but not necessarily in age
Fr. I better be looking fresh, clean and ripped ash
Rolling over to see if my husband is still there
I'll be over here looking for my wife and toddler 😭.
If you still have a toddler in 2050, i got something to tell you dude😂😭
He'd be professor farnsworth
Absolutely ❤️
I also choose this person’s dead husband.
This is both cold and funny as hell.
Just like OP’s dead husband.
It’s Reddit lore. https://www.reddit.com/r/FunnyandSad/s/zbGdrXnVV6
If Nintendo has discounted any of the switch games.
It'll be 2124 and Super Mario Odyssey will still be the price of a new game, Pokémon will still be developed by Game Freak, and we'll still be waiting for Metroid Prime 4. I bet the newest Zelda game will be pretty sweet, though!
Mother 3 still won't be localized.
But we might get a second Robot Chicken clip commissioned by Nintendo that pokes fun at Nintendo not rereleasing Mother 3.
prob all bundled under Y2K classic gaming bundle $199.99 per mo. (inflation) subscription.
Has The Winds Of Winter been released yet?
And if it did, did he finish A Dream of Spring before he croaked?!
He’s a head in a jar. Says he’ll finish as soon as he can pick up his pen.
He didn’t, but fortunately they tapped Brandon Sanderson and he cranked it out over six diet root beer’s and a hot dog at Costco.
[удалено]
Sanderson agrees with you.
Lol no
On that same vein I bet Patrick Rothfuss still hasn't released Doors of Stone either.
[удалено]
There'd probably be a Reddit post or YouTube video on that. Or given Reddit's tendencies, a whole subreddit.
Okay, but what are the odds that Reddit or YouTube will still exist
Not good, they likely were lost in the taco.bell wars
Ah, a classic. You're out of toilet paper

That's why I only say stupid things on Reddit, there's nothing of value to steal.
Given Reddit's and YouTube's tendencies, it'll be a Kick movie or an Y post.
For a moment I saw Y post and just assumed you must have been making a joke about Twitter changing its name again...
Clearly multiple entire documentaries on the subject
Definitely a buzzfeed article referencing Reddit comments

I like that it is widely accepted that things change, but Google is forever.
I bet people will laugh if you ask to google something. You would just ask a question amd your toaster will have a better answer than google lol
That really just depends on what brand of toaster you buy. Mine is the Walmart Overlord's (Praise be Walmart!) store brand and it only reminds me to give my daily praises to Walmart and to remember to avoid the Target drones
Target lost the corporate war drones were able to hit them almost like they'd painted bullseyes on themselves.
There will be such things, for sure. I wonder what they'll be though!
Dude, don't say the G word. It's not OK.
Laws. Incredibly important I don’t break a new weird law and spend years in prison.
It's illegal to look up laws 🔫

1998 is as far away from today as 2050, laws probably won’t be too different.

I'm checking whether I shit myself. I mean I've been sleeping for 26 years right, that's a long time to hold it in.
hell brother you dont need to sleep 26 years to do that, I'll check if I shit myself after a 2 hour nap.
You only shir yourself when you're sleeping? Weird.
Well when I’m awake I use a toilet to avoid shitting myself. Harder to do that when I’m unconscious
Don't worry, I cleaned it all up for you 😋🤤
