“We’re all middle class now”

1, 2 could be explained by pedophiles are on the prowl, plus people have IPAD/youtube kids now.
Paedophiles are no more prevalent now than they were. The fear of paedophiles is through the roof though.
Now they’re grooming your kids through the iPads, en masse.
Deep snow… like up past the hedges
The white dog poop from the seventies.
Ahh no all the dog shit on the ground around our way are dark colours.
Discarded ring pulls from drinks cans
Oil-puddle stains in car parking bays
Porno mags in hedgerows
Pedo’s in jail.
That was a television, not a jail cell.
Cassettes
I still buy cassettes! New ones too!
Trousers that fit :-(
lack of bugs, mostly due to global warming pesticide use, and planting non-native ornamental plants, most of which can be weedy or poisonous.
A windscreen covered with insects
Because all of the insects are dead
You ought to see my car… they’re all on the front of that one
You definitely see a lot less of them. Some of that was intentional, at least in the US, as the “love bug” problem was supposedly something that we caused and the solution was to spread sterilized bugs that would mingle with the regular bugs and prevent the population booms. No idea how well it worked, it could just be that our overuse of pesticides did the real work.
Blockbuster.
Amega and Acorn? NES, Master System, etc made sort of come backs with retro stuff. Not so much Amega, and certainly not Acorn.
You probably didn’t know about this as it didn’t get the attention of the NES and such, but here is a remade Amiga PC. https://retrogames.biz/products/thea500-mini/
No, I didn’t know. Not something I expect to see in the middle aisle at Aldi. Pretty sure I’ve seen cheap retro consoles as stocking fillers!
I have certainly have seen some cheap knockoff retro consoles at Aldi in their random seasonal aisle, but I’ve never seen any of the proper, branded retro remakes like this, the C64, or the NES/SNES/etc consoles.
I’ve seen very cheap MegaDrives clones, with real Sega games, somewhere. Maybe it wasn’t Aldi.
There’s AmigaKit’s A600GS, but that feels a bit less polished compared to the A500mini
mouldy ceilings and weird smells of rain and soot coming from the chimney
