It's weird, but many things have gone backwards.
1. Video stores, some had like every movie known to man. Now, they don't exist, no streaming service has many movies, like foreign ones, old classics, and so on. Streaming services suck because of the crazy limited selection. Video stores were better although the internet should be limitless, it's limited.
2. Cell phones: These destroyed PHONE BOOKS! If you had a friend you new lived in New York, that you hadn't seen in forever and didn't know his number or where he lived, you could get a NYC phone book at the library, look his name up, then call him, and see his address and go visit. NOW, there is no way to find everyone's phone number nor know where they live.
So, if you simply must find your old friend Bob Jones, you're f@cked because there's no clear way to do it.
That's insanely stupid and backwards.If you want to ask me a question:

Yes cartoons use to be appreciated and looked forward to. Sat morning was special! Even the holiday specials fpor xmas and Halloween you looked forward to cause you had to wait a whole nother year to see them again.
The wizard of oz you got too watch one time a year on march! You always looked forward to it.
Things had so much more meaning back then

brb remembering the good ol days of being stuck to your phones and sending white knight comments towards that special someone who friendzones you
I sort of agree. 90s kid checking in, I had a PS1 & N64 with namco musuem vol 1&3 and rented Croc 2 outta Mr. Movies for those $1 deal only on Mondays. For N64, I had pokemon stadium 1,2, pokemon puzzle league, pokemon snap that came with no accessory needed and so gameplay was weird as fuk for a kid.
Fast forward today, I could buy a Nintendo Wii-U and play those N64 games I never had when I was little such as Ocarina of Time, Mario 64, Smash Bros, Mario Kart 64, and Golden Eye 64.
Idk what to think. I have money to buy games but I also don't have time as responsibilities are kicking in by the way of "growing need" to move out since I'm 22.
edit: response towards below, I remember McDonald's coming out with those sonic minigames with only 1 button or two. Those things still work. You have to be a special kind of retard to fuk up those itemsLast edited by FunnyWeasel; 04-23-2017 at 10:12 PM.

I remember we had a small video store around the corner from my house called "Teddy Bear Video." Dude, you want to talk about being in a small town in the south. We were on the honor system! They had a sign out sheet for the movies. No ID or other info required, you just noted your name and what video you were taking, and they trusted that you'd bring it back. And if you didn't, well, there was really nothing they could do about it unless they happen to know you.
ALL I ASK IS ALL YOU GOT FOR AS LONG AS IT TAKES

Before mobile phones, you could be FA and not know it.
You could go out and assume someone tried to call your home phone.
With mobile phones, you always knew you were FA. Nobody cared where you were and nobody was trying to contact you.
You could no longer give yourself the benefit of the doubt. Nobody gave a fukk and you knew it. You spend the day at the beach with your mum and no missed calls or messages. You are a loser and it is staring you in the face every time you check your phone.
The time before mobile phones were good for FA kunts.
