    I love the 50's kitchens!! I love the old style of Formica and chrome. The *diner* dining set is SO me!! The aesthetic of it is just homey and kind of elegant at the same time. I'm going to be renting eventually, and I plan on getting some "removable wall paper" and magnetic dishwasher and refrigerator covers, so I can make my own 50's kitchen, and still be "renter friendly".

    I agree with alot of the ideas mentioned in this video....however....if you were more technically inclined, you could have been on the internet by the mid-90's like I was. And actually long before that, even in the 80's you could have an early internet-type of experience by visiting Computer Bulletin Boards (BBS's). Granted you weren't streaming full-screen videos or listening to all your favorite albums, but you could chat with other computer users about a myriad of subjects, download all sorts of pictures and short video or audio clips, play games (even with others), read the headlines, and study various subject in-depth because many of the early internet systems were connected to computers used at large universities across the country. Before eBay came along, I was posting and buying things for sale on what were called newsgroups or Usenet. I actually did alot of trading that way. It was a fun time because it was all new and fresh, and nobody quite knew where it was all headed. Of course, there were always many things to do if you got bored with the computer - many already touched on here. I think it's good to give yourself a break from the internet now and then to force your mind to be more creative, get some exercise, and reacquaint yourself with the wonderful world around you. If we're not careful, our modern immersive technologies can create bad habits and lead to bad mental or physical health, so we need balance.

My favorite sport is pro Football and Hockey and favorite team of course is Detroit Lions and Detroit Red Wings and as an 80's kid I collected sports cards and when I buy a pack of cards I always hope to score my favorite players. Next speaking of my favorite sports team's, when it's NFL season and the Lions are playing every Sundays I always put my favorite TV shows aside because when my home team is playing it is essentially mandatory I catch em play on TV, same goes for my Detroit Red Wings when NHL season is on TV.

    I am now a senior so this is 'second time 'round' for me. I like the COLOURS of the kitchen. That meant walls, cupboards, countertops, and kitchen table. They don't have to match. In real life, women picked a colour scheme.....maybe 2 or even three colours that went together well. Combining colours made the kitchen uniquely yours. I am old fashioned in that I want my kitchen to have its own look....NOT like a part of the living room. I don't make cakes in my living room. I like the vibrancy of vinyl flooring. It is a perfect material for kitchens and because it has fallen out of popularity there is not much available that is interesting. The sky is the limit for pattern and colour with this material. Maybe the next generation will catch on to it. And for those who snub their nose at vinyl flooring....What do you think your 'luxury vinyl plank flooring' is made out of???

    Are we seeing younger people missing out on learning how to "make do"? We repurposed many things just because either money was scarce or the items we wanted to buy weren't available. I recall wearing plastic bread bags over my socks inside my leaky rainboots --- anyone else? Others I knew wore galoshes (aka "rubbers" worn over the shoe), which I don't think are available anymore. Is it because children don't wear leather shoes so they don't need protecting? Does anyone even polish their shoes anymore? As more pre-prepared items came into the stores my mom, a natural born hoarder, had a ready supply of plastic containers to reuse for all sorts of things around the home. My grandma kept the buttons off her old clothing and put them into pill bottles to store for her next blouse or dress when she needed them. She did the same with zippers, too. My mom owns a wooden egg shaped thing used for darning socks --- are those even sold anymore? I wish I had studied shorthand, it would have come in handy in college and at various jobs. No one could read my notes then! I used to joke that I got a year of "Cs" learning to type and then had to rely on that ability the rest of my educational/working careers! That sure came in handy even if I no longer had to manually set margins or use carbon paper for copies. I love learning new things so I have no issue with the dawn of Microsoft and the advent of cell phones. I just hope I can afford to continue my learning journey as I age into retirement --- tech is very expensive! I do see some things coming back around: community compost is happening (now to reduce landfill size). It used to be that garbage went into the can not into a plastic bag first, hence the "compost" going to the landfill. No one wanted to live on the side of town where the local dump was located! The sharing electric cars and bicycles are good advances that we could have used back in the day rather than everyone having to save up their hard earned cash to buy these things. So somethings have been advancements. The skills and the various tools/equipment needed to use those skills put the means of production in the hands of the people. This is something that needs to come back around if we want to move from being a consumer driven economy and more capable of meeting our own needs (via repair and manufacturing what we require for daily living). Just my rambly 2 cents (or ought it be $5 now due to inflation?). Thanks for posting this, great little journey for us to take!
