“Songs as ringtones. I used to spend ages picking my favourite bit of my favourite song as my ringtone.”

 

“Potpourri. I swear it was in everyone’s house when I was a kid but I haven’t seen any in in about 15 years.

 

“Those strange pictures where if you looked at them in a different way, a 3D image of some s****y zebra popped out at you. I remember going into a shop with my mum looking at them and we came out with headaches. What were those f*****g pictures called?”

“Pirate DVD sellers in car parks.”

 

“Orange streetlights are vanishing so quickly round here. The new LED jobs make a huge difference to the feel of the UK at night I think.”

 

“Google+. I remember lots of hype about it being “exclusive” and having to be invited by someone already on it or something, and then… It kind of just faded away.”

#14 Pokémon Ho died because of all the spoofers who would use a cheat that allowed them to take over any location without being there. Destroyed the game. I stopped playing when I was unable to find any places they wouldn't steal immediately.
