The *Freezing Cold Takes* meme originates from the sports world, where old, incorrect predictions are revisited and mocked. It gained popularity through the Twitter account *@OldTakesExposed*, created by Fred Segal in 2015. The account highlights bold claims—especially from analysts and fans—that aged poorly. The phrase "freezing cold take" contrasts with "hot take," referring to controversial or confident opinions. Over time, the meme expanded beyond sports, applying to politics, entertainment, and viral internet moments. Now, whenever someone makes a disastrously wrong prediction, the internet is quick to label it a *freezing cold take* and resurface it for laughs.
