Some things are fairly accurate, other things were WAY overshooting, other things were WAY undershooting (ie. travel to London will take only 2 days), some are humorous, and still others are even depressing. To put things in a historical context; this news paper article was from the same time period as the Titanic.

Rosalina: But you didn't.
Robert: But I DON'T.
Rosalina: You sure that's right?
Robert: I was going to HAVE told you they'd come?
Rosalina: No.
Robert: The subjunctive?
Rosalina: That's not the subjunctive.
Robert: I don't think the syntax has been invented yet.
Rosalina: It would have had to have had been.
Robert: Had to have...had...been? That can't be right.
