Name Something You Grew Up With That Is Gone & Not Coming Back

[nightchief]

Walkman's
Lawn Darts
Kids not obsessed with Facebook/Instagram, etc

And this one ma be hard for some to understand, but I work in a very old legacy industry: The Railroad.
I miss the Railroad as it was (historic, tough, but cared for its people, and romantic); Not as it is (cold, ruled by inexperience with no sense of history, and completely uncaring of its people who sacrifice a lot to keep it going)

I'm obviously getting old and will start telling young punks to get off my lawn soon...

...and I loved Airwolf when I was 12! plays on El Rey occasionally and I watch it...and its really not that good a show!

Riding bicycles without helmets? Hell, when I was growing up in the 1960's and 70's we never even heard of such a thing (if they were even available back then).

My virginity.

My virginity.

It's not something you really want that back though.

It's not something you really want that back though.

Actually it is. I will never ever ever know the joy of punching the V card on my wedding night with a girl I will grow old and die with. As a middle aged man I wish I could know that joy.

I....actually regret all the tang I got. It may not be like player level but every time I think about it, it simply wasn’t worth that skeevy feeling you get when it all goes tits up over some cosmically minor upset that could have been resolved if people just took a minute and metered their emotions.

I know M4C has like a LOT of virgins. Perhaps not arfcom level but I sincerely urge you wait until marriage.

I think marriage is about finding the right one that you can live with for the rest of your life and a big part of that is sexual compatibility. I don't regret most of my earlier gfs, I pretty much only regret the ones I could have known better, I'd have rather spent quality time with them than doing some of the goofball / dumbass shit I actually spent my time doing.

If I knew then what I know now, I would have spent more time with the girls I knew and stopped hanging around half the guys I knew.

I get what you are saying, but in reality, at the time, those hormones raging and the crazy you would do to get them in check is not what I consider to be the fun part of that time in life.

I did love Lawn Darts, came across a set a year or so ago, but they weren’t for sale.

I also sympathize with you on the current state of our employer and industry, it has turned into a total shit show in the past 10 years.

I thought of one that's probably going to piss some people off. I remember a time before people started putting bass-booming speakers into their cars. A person could actually be in the back yard as traffic passed and you could not hear even ONE car radio or stereo as traffic went by. I wish those days could return.

Forget cars. How about the number of people who are completely ignorant of social nuances and play music or videos in public on their phone without headphones. I was at work in a hospital setting and a repair guy came into a common area watching a video for all to hear. I politely told him it was inappropriate for the work environment to play his video for all to hear. He was a bit off guard, apologized, then left. What the actual F?
