Your Favorite Things Have Been Replaced By Technology

Being it's an iHeart 80s Weekend on 100.3 WNIC, why not reminisce about "the good ol' days?" 

Don't get me wrong … technology is awesome but there are some things that it replaced that were pretty darn awesome too! 

Playlists on your phone or laptop are cool but what about the art of the Mix Tape? 

It's fun receiving a Snap or text but remember leaving notes on lockers at school? 

A new survey asked people to name the things that have been replaced by technology that they miss the most. Here are a few that I agree with: 

Making Mix Tapes:  I was constantly trying to catch songs on the radio and so what if you heard the end of another song before YOUR song came on. Hahaha! Do you remember putting on a record, cue-ing it up and pressing the record and play buttons simultaneously? 

Picking Up Your Photos That You Dropped Off To Get Developed: This was fun. The anticipation built as you waited until you got in the car to flip through all the pics. Sureabout  75% of them turned out bad, but it was fun to not know what you had on the roll of film I guess. 

Handwritten Letters:  Back imiddle school I would write or get a  couple notes every day from my girlfriends. When we got into high  school that went up to maybe three or five notes a day – one to or from  your boyfriend. Nowawdays? You get tagged in a tweet oyou're part of a group text (not that there's anything wrong with that)! 

Perusing The Aisles At Blockbuster: 

Yes, there was life (and entertainment) before OnDemand and even before Netflix. Remember when Blockbuster had their Guaranteed New Release?  That was the first place you looked when you walked in the store. And  even then, you would walk the aisles until you saw something that you  liked. Oh wow – here's a memory: "Be Kind, Please Rewind."
