Big Bang Theory is still on TV. I have no idea why. Reality TV in general for me. How many times can people stay interested in the exact same concept over and over again? Especially when it's so obviously scripted or at the very least heavily edited to fabricate drama where there was none. You know that was the same argument people gave about pro wrestling, right?
Pay phones. Yes, I found one in a strange part of town recently.

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. They are more secure than email so a lot of government and doctor's offices still prefer them. exactly this reason. I work for the canadian government and we still allow faxing information as an option because email is nowhere near secure enough an avenue for the information we deal in.

[/quote] There are Pay phones all over NYC still. Rarely ever see anyone use it but they are there... and besides how else are you expected to log out of the matrix? >_> <_< Flintstones vitamins and Pebbles cereal. Today's kids probably aren't even aware that there was ever more to those characters beyond those two products. They know about them thanks to the WWE and their Stone Age Smackdown

Cameras that use film. I can take a better quality picture and send it to all me friends & family in less time than it takes to take it somewhere just to get developed.

After the latest data breach, I think they may have put the final nail in their own coffin.

Except in the case of pro wrestling, it's pedants who think pointing out that a work of fiction is a work of fiction makes them smart. These shows actually sell themselves as being legit and people who watch them actually buy it. Also, please don't reply to posts with "you know that ______, right?". It's not an argument for anything and it just makes you come off as arrogant.

I had a thing with work about these. They wanted a void cheque. I said I didn't have one. So I had to get something from the bank with the equivalent information. They rejected it. I demanded to know why they needed this information since they'd been paying me into that account for 10 years now. They didn't know. Went back to the bank and got the same info as before. Finally they accepted it. Time wasted between all of us dealing with this? Weeks. Hours. What they owed me? Like $25. Probably spent about $500 in wages to make it happen between us all.

(I'm referring to old school wrestling, mainly before the mid-eighties.)

I was trying to develop pictures from a disposable camera, and most places don't anymore. And the ones that do take like, a week. I used to be able to get it done in an hour at Walgreens. I was gonna say Video Stores. I know of like, 3 somewhat around my area. They have games too. I really, really miss Blockbuster.

I had bought box cameras for an ROH show - the cameras and the film development was going to cost over $100. Turns out ROH is allowing digital cameras now, so that was a LOT of wasted money.

Strangely enough as I was reading this topic I had Jerry Springer on in the background. Also let me add Maury as well.
