People are trying to pinpoint the moment the world went to sh*t – 23 plausible suggestions
A quick glance through historical documents shows that people have forever been thinking the world has gone to pot, that the younger generation are the cause of it, and that SNL isn’t funny anymore.
But at this point in the timeline, things really have gone to pot, though we don’t reckon it’s the fault of Gen Z – there have clearly been other factors.
Can anyone pinpoint the exact moment when the world started to go to shit?

“Many were increasingly of the opinion that they'd all made a big mistake in coming down from the trees in the first place. And some said that even the trees had been a bad move and that no one should ever have left the oceans.”
