Oh where to begin...laugh
Can we go back to good manners
Honestly it shocks me now when someone holds a door open for me.... oh it still happens most times I'm out and about but no longer is it the norm
Cars drive themself now days, I'm 60 and I just want to be able to change my oil, filters, brake pads, rotate my tires without a computer, PhD and special equipment.
And who in the hell decided to charge for air,?
And a decade ago y'all discovered red velvet cakelaugh I've got grandma's recipe that's like a scientific experiment.
And it's not cream cheese frosting
It's flour, butter and cream brought to a boil chilled, then whipped with milk and powdered sugar
laugh I've now hit the"life use to be better" age!

i have nothing against digital art but fine art has gone by the wayside. looking for work, nobody wants traditional art: painting or drawing.

Jigsore: 1.Hand written letters - far more personal.
2.Ocean, train and airline travel - far more opulent and dignified than the cramped spaces of modern day travel.
3.Politics campaigning. A candidate would promote his/her virtues as opposed to denigrating the opposition.
4. Gas/fuel/petrol station service where an attendant would wash your windscreen and have a chat while filling your car.
5. Dancing cheek to cheek rather than trying to "Pop it like it's' hot".
Yessss! Most don't write letters, they send text's instead.

I would like to add a few other things.

How about building good character, respect, integrity, values, morals and ambition. Oh and chivalry as someone mentioned already.

Good character was replaced by politically correct. Chivalry at the door disappeared with airconditioning (think about those two sets of doors cramped together). Marriage was undermined by mobility which destroyed the extended family by spreading it out, and that was the main support of the nuclear family. Did I leave anything out?

Dedovix: if you do a checkup on where and when these pandemics happen -tho most data`s were customized to fit the ``modern age pharmaceutical needs`` . You will find that they appeared in urban places such as heavily populated cities .At times when most of Europe had very poor hygiene , no sewage .

There are numerous scientific papers, which are skillfully silenced or reshaped to mask the truth about the harmfulness of the vaccine, and which reveal that diseases such as autism, epilepsy, polio, diabetes, numerous allergies, asthma, decreased concentrations, learning disorders, skin lesions, multiple sclerosis, etc., a consequence of vaccination
" Since 1979, no cases of polio have originated in the U.S. However, the virus has been brought into the country by travelers with polio. The last time this happened was in 1993."

I like the idea of an old fashioned shoot out or duel.
If someone really pisses you off ... you should have the right to call them out to shoot 'em.
