My 25 list. (This is my own, not from another site or blog)
25. CRT monitors
24. Music Stores (there will always be a few, but the days of one on every corner are gone)
23. Physical media (dvds, cds, etc) Downloading and streaming is the future
22. Ashtrays. Nobody smokes anymore, and if they do its not inside. When's the last time you saw an ashtray in someones house?
21. Analog. The future is (already) digital.
20. K-Mart. Who shops there anymore?
19. Local drugstores. The chains are pushing all of them out.
18. "Made in America" The only thing we export these days is bad reality television and obesity. And bad reality tv ABOUT obesity.
17. XM/Sirius. Good concept, but people seem content to keep listening to 3 songs and then 10 minutes of commercials on regular FM radio.
16. Anything less than 10% unemployment in America. The promised recovery ain't coming anytime soon. The system can only soak up so many people who sit in a cubicle and scratch themselves all day.
15. Affordable college tuition. Let's face it, unless you're truly rich and famous, you WILL be buried in loans for a long time that not even BANKRUPTCY can get cleared.
14. Marijuana possession as a felony. It just costs too much to haul those people through the system and keep them locked up. Really when it comes down to it, not much more harmful than alcohol.
13. Lower taxes. Every level of government is so buried in debt that lowering taxes is just not an option.
12. Wrist watches for anything other than fashion or formality. Everyone now just uses their cell phones as a timepiece.
11. Repairable small and medium ticket items. Most things now are disposable or too expensive to fix to make it worthwhile. Shoes, refrigerators, etc.
10. Simple cars that don't have 100 miles of wire harness. Power everything, navi, heated seats, etc are becoming standard on most cars.
9. True old world style tradesman craftsmanship. Houses today are built in a week by a crew of non-English speakers that gather outside of Home Depot. When is the last time you saw anyone build a church or house with as much beautiful intricate detail as was common 100 years ago.
8. Farmers who save and re-use seed. Also food crop seeds that aren't patented. Monsanto is truly and honestly an ugly entity in every way.
7. Trans fats. Everyone thought they were SO wonderful to begin with, now looking to go the same way as frying things in animal fat.
6. People in the US getting more sleep on average. We all need it, but it ain't coming back. With recessionary and lay off pressures mounting, we're forced to do all we can cram into a day. Hence so many coffee shops and energy drink brands.
5. Shade tree and gas station mechanics. Gas prices are too competitive to make much money. Used to be supplemented by repairs, now they just sell people lots of overpriced corn syrup.
4. Kids walking or biking to school. They get to ride on heated leather seats while watching a movie instead.
3. Pensions. Be thankful if you have one, because they're going fast.
2. Employed for life. Who wants to stare at the same wall 8 hours per day for their whole life? With pensions gone, there's just no incentive.
1. "Until death do us part" There's still a few holdovers out there. (Mostly for religious or personal beliefs) but lets face it, after spending half of your waking hours with the same person for 5-10-15 years, you just get sick of it. Not knocking the sanctity of marriage, hats off if you both are in it for life, just saying it's statistically becoming less common.
And a few "maybe?"
-Tower computers for non-office use. Who wants something that big and clunky when you can do everything you need on a laptop?
-Big box bookstores. The kindle e-reader has proved amazingly popular.
