There's a meme, about archeologists in the future, finding still-viable Twinkies.
Then, we have Tallahassee, from Zombieland:
> There's a box of Twinkies in that grocery store. Not just any box of Twinkies, the last box of Twinkies that anyone will enjoy in the whole universe. Believe it or not, Twinkies have an expiration date. Some day very soon, Life's little Twinkie gauge is gonna go... empty.
"...and lo, it was a neck-trinket used to bind people to a specific suitor, here cast aside intentionally as an act of defiance, a liberation of sorts, to free oneself from the chains of monogamy..."
It's such a shame we can re-live the past through history but there is no way we can see the future.
It makes me think like in every moment of our lives we're on the tip of the ice berg of humanity.
And we still end up being history anyway.
