Like all good memes, it started with a tweet. A few days ago, Twitter user Mallori Taylor tweeted out the hopes she has for herself in 15 years.
Not too soon after, someone else pointed out that it was strange how quick people are to idolise futures where they're doing the bare minimum.
And as expected, everyone else on Twitter caught wind of it. So people decided to run with the same format to share their own dream futures.
Some took inspiration from their favourite films.
LADIES imagine this, its 15 years from now. your son is up to bat. your daughter is cheering him on in the stands. your husband is nowhere to be found, you start to worry he’ll miss the game. suddenly, a tiny red convertible pulls up on the field. its your husband, Stuart Little

LADIES imagine this, It’s 20 years from now. Your daughter is about to get married. You don’t have a husband but three men that might be her father show up on your Greek island. It’s chaos. Pierce Brosnan is singing. It’s Mamma Mia
And from iconic tracks, of course.
Ladies imagine this, five years from now the skater boi who you said see you later boi is now rocking on MTV. You call up your friends, they already know, they have tickets to see his show. You tag along and stand in the crowd, looking up at the man you turned down.
Ladies imagine this, 15 years from now I’m coming out of my cage and I've been doing just fine gotta gotta be down because i want it all it started out with a kiss how did it end up like this it was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Others decided to keep it traditional and poked fun at the original tweet.

But the best ones? Well, they were the ones that you could envision actually happening.
Ladies, imagine this. It’s 15 years from now, and you have no kids. You’re the cool wine aunt that occasionally comes back to the country for a brief visit before leaving for another long, exotic vacation. You have no commitments, and a suspicious amount of money.
LADIES imagine this, It’s 15 years from now. You’re not at a shitty baseball game, you’re in hawaii for the weekend. With your wife. You’re a lesbian. You can’t have kids, so they can’t hold you back. All your straight friends are stuck at kids sporting events. You’re laughing.
Well... maybe not all of them.
