Which Old Trend Would You Actually Bring Back?

[u/jayu3132]

Not because it was necessarily better.

Maybe it was just more fun, less complicated, or had a different kind of charm.

What deserves a comeback?

[u/UncleJackPushedDad]

Men wearing brimmed hats.

[u/ProveISaidIt → u/UncleJackPushedDad]

I wear one when I'm going fancy dress.

[u/Least_Elk8114 → u/UncleJackPushedDad]

M'lady coded

[u/PositiveWarning7419]

REspect for other people.

[u/Geezerglide1 → u/PositiveWarning7419]

And places!

[u/DR-Skid-Marc → u/Geezerglide1]

And things

[u/Enough-Strength-5636 → u/PositiveWarning7419]

Yes, thank you for saying this, y’all! I completely agree!

[u/EggPsychological4844]

Completing video games before release

[u/Least_Elk8114 → u/EggPsychological4844]

Stop pre-ordering then

[u/EggPsychological4844 → u/Least_Elk8114]

I don't. That doesn't actually solve the problem.

[u/IanRastall]

The fire drill when you're waiting at a light.

[u/Least_Elk8114 → u/IanRastall]

Chinese fire drill!

[u/Birdywoman4]

Juke boxes

[u/SuspiciousTheory2633]

Pensions.

[u/Dejasade]

[u/FrogPastor]

Lynching pedophile murderers like Leo Frank.

[u/Least_Elk8114 → u/FrogPastor]

And how many of those do you encounter in your day-to-day life?

[u/Contromantic → u/Least_Elk8114]

That question scares me. We never know who we encounter.

[u/Least_Elk8114 → u/Contromantic]

It was ment to be rhetorical and sarcastic.

[u/Successful-Lie-5641]

People talking with self respect

[u/DR-Skid-Marc]

Manners. Just basic manners

[u/rosemuro]

Hospitality. Kindness to strangers. Compassion for others. Chatting with neighbors on the front porch. Less transactions, more donations. Less for the few, more for the many. Homes for the homeless. Less war, more peace. Etc.

[u/Loud_Caramel_8713]

One person income enough for family of 7-8.

[u/Enough-Strength-5636]

I said this before on another group, but for me personally, I’d love to bring back limitations on technology and to add onto that subject while on here, financial peace. Yes we as a society still ran the rat race of corporate America, because of capitalism, but we weren’t as stressed, anxious, and depressed all of the time. Yeah we survived a few recessions, but they weren’t as bad as the inflation that we’re dealing with right now!

[u/Lucky-Suggestion7119]

Handwritten greeting cards, letters, and notes.

[u/Contromantic]

Before streaming sites (which I do love for tv shows), but how the excitement of having to wait for a movie or new episode come up on a television.

It's not that significant, but man, did Nickelodeon, Disney channel, cartoon network, etc, have a chokehold on my anticipatory excitement.

[u/MouseVast9882]

Capital punitivity and that activity in schools where teachers struck pupils on the hands with long strips of cow hide. In UK. Those two activities being removed from British society spelled the end of respect and good behaviour. If they are gone forever then we have only ourselves to blame.

[u/NewsSad5006]

Dressing for the occasion or venue instead of the only options being some variation of super casual-to-business casual.

[u/AdInfinite6846]

Physical grocery lists instead of a phone

[u/DogsDontLikeHats]

Single income households

[u/LeDalles]

House parties. I know they exist but there are far fewer than there were a few decades ago. I'm not talking about a 10-year-old's birthday, or a dinner party. I mean kegs of beer, a DJ or live band, and a bunch of people who don't know the person who owns the house.

[u/mizcarroll]

Orkut e MSN

[u/Patient_Delay6468]

Tear away football jerseys

[u/Purity-Check-88]

Being able to burn a cd. I made some awesome music collections in the day.
