I’m really bad at remembering how to drive places, and always have been. Zero sense of direction. Pre-GPS life sucked ass for me in that respect.
But I do miss pre-internet socializing. Phone (voice) calls, cocktail parties, cookouts with the neighbors, and work mixers could all be very pleasant experiences.
Also miss not being tracked and recorded every minute of every day. It’s creepy AF how we leave digital trails everywhere we go now.
