23 Things That Are Slowly Phasing Out In 2022 And Are Probably Going To Completely Disappear

Yeah, I don’t understand why this is downvoted either… do people not think women’s rights are in jeopardy? I mean, if they don’t live in the US maybe nothing has changed in their world so this doesn’t impact them. Being American, Roe v Wade being overturned is terrifying to me.

Ikr! Like everything is 10x more expensive nowadays

Should higher! We need this to survive!

Yep. In china, everything you do once you set foot out of ur home is recorded.

Affordable home is a myth.

I am severely asthmatic and if I have to walk through some employee's cigarette smoke to enter a business, I turn around and take my business elsewhere. Not worth it.

YES PLEASE!

a 'stupid tax' if ever there was one.

Just stayed in this thing, - hotel they are calling it. Didn't have to take the garbage out, strip the room, pay a "cleaning" fee or feed anyone's cat. Hope they catch on.

Say that again... I got distracted at "Att..."

I disagree. I come on boardpanda on a regular basis and I find my faith in humanity restored regularly

Let me guess, this is in the US?

I still buy DVDs/BluRays. I like actually owning the thing and being able to reliably access it for the next 20-50 years. Only series and movies I've rewatched at least once and want to watch again though.

Without cash our society would be far worse off

My local op shop has two buildings, one is the usual cheap things and cheap clothes and the other is the higher end stuff like vintage clothes or collectibles. It works well.

I've heard they've installed a revolving door at #10 Downing 😉

And the amount in savings accounts

Unless absolutely required, coming to office should be optional.

I live in a 24hr city, and I feel for those who work nights and struggle to do their shopping now.

Yup, Sitcoms are fading in general. Or are already completely gone. At least good ones. Maybe because you can't have dark-humored, sarcastic content anymore. Imagine "Married with Children" going on air nowadays. My favorite Sitcom...

Yup, with the new law in 2024 these are a thing of the past in the EU. USB-C for any brand. Not just Apple.

not in africa, we have too many unemployed people. We need job creation.

Nope, I think real menus are a hill many will choose to die on.

If they can't bring me a menu I will eat somewhere else

I love IT products but I always demand a physical menu when I go to a restaurant and they try make me view the menu from a QR code. I mean, I love QRs as well, but making me download a menu and scroll on my phone is not convenient.

This bothers me because I can't afford data on my phone and would not assume that they would let me use their WiFi. How am I supposed to know what kind of food you have? Unless it's online on the restaurant's website. What does this mean for people with allergies?

I won't download an app to order food, sorry.

I love physical menus. I can order everything on my phone when I'm at home or at work. A physical menu makes the dining experience more "real".

Is this a thing now? Haven't been to a restaurant without real menus as of yet.

I do not want to install an app on my phone to see someone's menu.

I despise those damn code thingies. I'm a dinosaur and I want a real menu, damn it!

Any restaurant that wants me to scan a QR code instead of showing me a physical menu? That's when I get up and NOPE my way out of that place.

personally i enjoy virtual menus they’re quite convenient and it’s harder to drop them on the floor

I want to go to restaurant, feel the menu with my hands and be really happy.

"I didn't bring my phone to the restaurant, that's my policy when I'm eating it's all about that and the people I'm with"

Food trucks are here to stay

I get wanting to save paper and cost but I think every table should come with at least one menu if they're going to go to QR code route. I bought my phone less than a year ago and it doesn't have a QR code reader standard. And between all the apps that I need to have to keep up with my job, my kids school, and my bank. Not to mention all the apps that I can't uninstall on my phone, I'm not going to put yet another app on my phone just for the one time every 3 months that I go out to eat. It's an interesting idea but not well thought out.

No physical menu, no patronage, and no orders.

F**k that. I ask for one and will leave if I dont get it.

OP saw a QR code menu once and decided physical menus are dissapearing

I welcome this I'm tired of getting a paper menu That's all sticky and wet.

I'm not going to clog up my phone with menus from poor quality places. Some fancy places I've been to focus more on the looks of their restaurant rather than the food quality. I once spent $30 on pasta (thinking for that price, it'd be fit for a royal to eat it) and I swear I've never put something so revolting in my mouth. It was a wagu beef spaghetti something and it was so bitter, it tasted like tomato seeds and the quantity was only enough for a child. I don't care if I sound like a Karen stereotype, but I was so disgusted that I asked to talk to the chef and I gave him cooking advice on how to actually make the dish edible. I'm not usually fussy, but some of the foods I've bought in my life, not even my dog would eat it. I've loved cooking since I was a kid and I've won lots of cooking awards, I also have the qualifications and quality to run my own kitchen. I swear I'm not boasting, I'm just proving I have the experience to back up my opinions.
