It seems fairly recently I saw a 900 number commercial on tv, who would have thought in this day and age?
What are some things that are still around that surprise you?

The band Train.. the Drops of Jupiter band.
I know bands hang on for a while. But I still hear new shit from them on radio. Someone must be buying it... Who?

Fax machines. I was forced to use one just yesterday to send some paperwork and I don't understand why I can't just scan and email instead.

Pokémon, beyond the video games.
I really expected the cartoon and stuff to have died a death long ago and for it to pretty much exist now only in video game format but nope, still huge. As huge as it was in it's heyday since Pokémon Go gave it a shot in the arm.

I'm surprised most of those long running CBS reality shows (Big Brother, The Amazing Race) are still on the air. |

Barely. They just shut down a ton of K-Marts (there are only about 600 left with more closings to come), and I believe Sears is, or is preparing, to shut down a bunch of it's stores as well, which it has done consistently for the last 10-ish years. I know that over that time period, they went from 3500 Sears stores to less than 700 (I wanna say closer to 650) today. |
