I was thinking about how much the world has changed since I was a kid. I kind of miss the days when you actually had to wait to see someone to tell them a story, or when getting a CD was a huge event. What’s something 'old school' you wish hadn't disappeared?

I've turned off notifications for everything except email, sms and calendar, and it's on do not disturb from 9pm to 6am. You especially don't want that shit on for social media sites.
