The things they hope stay in the past include:
- "Jellies, the shoes. OMG, they were bad then, and I have no idea why I see them for sale now. They're blister factories and stink as an insult to injury."
- "Having to go to the movies without a pre-purchased ticket or assigned seat was a hassle. You'd have to wait in long lines to sit in lousy seats or find out the show was sold out."
- "What was with all the feather roach clips in the late '70s and early '80s? They looked so very, very dumb, and I often thought many teens who wore them did not know what they were."
- "Can we just talk about '80s frizzy hair for a moment? It looked good on exactly no one."
- "Smoking inside buildings. For a non-smoker, it's literally one of the worst and most suffocating smells. So glad I don't have to smell like an ashtray anymore after visiting a restaurant!"
- "Parachute pants. They even made a brief comeback a few years ago. Why, though?"
- "Something that was very popular in the '70s was shag carpeting. Everyone had it. I remember my sister had a rake for hers (really!). It was horrible to vacuum, and if you dropped something in it, you'd never find it again."
- "Having only one landline phone in the kitchen and being on a party line!"
- "Riding without seatbelts. I remember being made fun of for always buckling up, even into the mid-'90s."
- "Paper maps that need folding."
- "Pagers, beepers. It was kinda neat at first, and then, it just seemed annoying."
- "Low-rise jeans. I absolutely hate that these are making a comeback."
