The rotary dial phone has to be at top of the list you shouldn't have to spin anything to call someone

The polio vaccine was pretty bad, too. No one should have to be stuck with a needle just to not be crippled.

you might want to look into the development of phones to appreciate how great rotary dial phones were

And how mad were you when someone had a 9 or 0 in their number and you had to wait for it to spin all the way back around. Seemed like forever.

Vuvuzela. I ended up punching some hipster wannabe across my apartment who kept blasting it at night which led me to my first jail experience

I liked rotary phones. They were unusual but still around when I was a kid. You know what's bullshite, the modern replicas of antique phones that have fake rotary.



It even has the notch. Boo

Or when you were trying to call into the radio station to win some promo item with that rotary or pulse phone.

Depends on your outlook on humans and rationality.

In a rational world where all sides face global destruction, nuclear weapons will (and so far have) ended large scale, multiple state wars. We’ve moved from total war to proxy and techno war.

However, all it takes is one irrational actor to completely change the world.

On the plus side we haven't had a world war since they've been used. On the negative side, if we ever do again we're fricked.

That is a significant upgrade from the phone where you crank a dial and get sent to an operator

Nipple piercing.

Whoever invented that “procedure” should suffer for his crime against humanity.
