Dial Up. Yeah I know the sound and I know the time it took to load anything with. But it's something I won't ever miss having. I would much rather be on a 1MB connection if I had to choose between that or dial up ever again. I also hated how easy it was to be kicked off, if anyone called the phone, you were off it in seconds.

All the awful fashion and color trends from the 80s that are back in vogue. Go to Target or Ikea and you see that awful mustard-yellow or that brick-red and hunter-green colors. Makes me want to gag.

I do not miss having a work phone. Never wanted one and so glad it's gone.

Sure as hell not nostalgic for childhood either, it was not good. I hated having no control of my life. It was not terrible or abusive but I do not consider it a magical time. No.
