30 Photos Showing How Time Changes Things

Published 6 years ago

You have to agree that some things only get better when they’re worn in – like your favorite pair of shoes or your armchair. And in some cases, as things wear down, they reveal their interesting hidden sides that we normally wouldn’t get to see.

From statues being polished from hundreds of people rubbing them to floors wearing through from being stepped on so much, see the most amazing pictures showing how time wears things down in the gallery below! And if that’s not enough, check out more pictures of things that wore down with time here.

One day, this guy just kind of figured - "I spend most of my time on the internet anyway, why not turn it into a profession?" - and he did! Now he not only gets to browse the latest cat videos and fresh memes every day but also shares them with people all over the world, making sure they stay up to date with everything that's trending on the web. Some things that always pique his interest are old technologies, literature and all sorts of odd vintage goodness. So if you find something that's too bizarre not to share, make sure to hit him up!

Got wisdom to pour?
