Lays had some chocolate covered potato chips that would come out around the holidays. I didn't care for them myself, but my wife loved them and I miss buying them for her

[–] [email protected] 1 points 53 seconds ago

I know it's a different brand, but Better Made Chips has something similar. I've seen them around stores in Michigan, banda quick internet search tells me they're on Amazon or you could buy straight from Better Made's website

Look at this gift of the magi level motherfucker. You can have anything in the entire world that you miss, and it's the joy of getting something for your wife. You're a good person.

Miiverse on the Wii U. Every games felt like a community. You could share tips, screenshots, etc… some games even had integrations like chat bubbles in Mario Maker. I always went out of my way to pick up a message in a bottle in Windwaker.

When they shut it down, the console main screen felt VERY empty and each players, very alone (You can spare the jokes about how we were alone anyway since it didn’t sell well)

Not "technically" discontinued, but almost

Buying products and owning them.

Buying products and getting full repair manuals and electrical schematics

Cathode ray tubes

Overbuilt refrigerators and washing machines

Clothes that last and are repairable

Houses built with full bricks and iron with actual straight walls and unbroken woodwork

Trader Joe’s Belgian Chocolate Pudding. It was really good with fresh strawberries mixed in.

Santa Clarita Diet.

Just needed one more season to wrap things up. Damn you Netflix

Sense8. We got a finale, but cramming 3 seasons into 2 hours showed.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 hours ago

Such a cool concept, I really enjoyed the show.

People will inevitably come in here saying "whatabout the Maverick and Colorado?" but those trucks are all the size of full size HDs from 30 years ago.

Edit: don't even get me started on the Tacoma bloat, the "only mid-size truck on that market" which is the same size as a Humvee.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah. I hate that shit. Those suck too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Indeed. I have a (parked for the past year, need major suspension work but w/e) S10 which is honestly perfect for me. I know that even in the 90s it was seen as a "mini" truck, but it's carried everything I've ever needed to haul

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 hours ago

If the made them again I'd buy one for sure. I had one I high school but the transmission went out so I traded it in for a Civic (which I still have). I love the car but it's annoying having to borrow my dad's truck every couple weekends when I need to haul stuff and I hate driving it because it handles like a school bus and I'm too short to see over the front end.

ReBoot somehow managed to get cancelled three times and revived twice. That third cancellation and its cliffhanger, though...

The startup sound on my computer in the 90's was "Warning: Incoming Game."

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago

I have that sound effect play by a switch by my bed that turns the room into Fuck Mode, blacklights, lava lamps, and a silicone Snit mask

The show This Fool. It was absolutely hilarious.

Jericho, I remember fans sent in tons of peanuts to the studio as a protest.

Coyote vs Acme

The movie is already completely finished, but some "genius" thinks that they'll make more money by shelving it and claiming it for a tax-writeoff.

The Logitech K800 keyboard. I swear by them, had 5 of them over the course of like more then a decade.

Super soft illuminated keys, super nice to work with, I have the last one here on my desk and I can't find new ones anymore.

They were quite pricey, around 80-100 dollars, but man it was nice while it lasted

[–] [email protected] 12 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

New keyboard every couple of years sounds like a shitty keyboard. Why not change to something with better build quality?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 hours ago

Looks down at his second-hand, 13 year old HP 5309U product code GM321AA and thinks "Damn dude. Sure my keyboard has nine keys that are worn so much that most are missing the print on them. And sure, it's not a mechanical keyboard. But I didn't have to spend a dime for it and it's still working just fine for me.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 hours ago

pricey

80-100

Damn man that's probably on the low end of mech keyboards
