With UlyssesT out there touching grass, I haven’t seen this thread in a while. What in the past do you NOT miss? It could be very personal or just something everyone experienced but doesn’t anymore.

For me, I am so fucking happy the food scene in burgerland has changed since the 2000s. People seem to enjoy more well-seasoned foods and healthier options seem to outstrip the unhealthy slop I remember in the 2000s. Even my yee-yee ahh Ohio suburb has changed somewhat noticeably to support fresh ingredients. Less WASPslop is always good.

How about y’all?

I wonder if this is location dependent, I’ve really never had trouble getting a ticket at the theater right before. I basically never see a theater more than half full aside from like, opening night and I just don’t go to things on opening night.

Maybe so, but if you do this today at a theater that pre-sells assigned seats, you're guaranteed not to get the better seats which have been pre-selected, even if you are there first.

(Double whammy when people file in during the movie because they are not in a rush to get a seat)

I feel the same way about concerts. Live Nation and Ticketmaster would not be a thing if mfers from around the world did not have purchase access to the show happening down the street from me. Just let me walk over and buy from the ticket agent and let's be done with the transaction.
