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'd love to see an electric trabant with massive speakers built into it so it still sounds the same as the old tiny 2-stroke engines (never accept a 4-stroke trabant, those are abomination).

it wouldnt have that 2-stroke fuel smell, but you cant have everything.
