11 Things We Should Straight Up Not Miss About The Past

10. ‘Classic’ Toys

People joke about how kids these days need to toughen up and how kids in their day used to eat lead paint and blah blah blah. The things that were banned were banned for a reason, like lawn darts, which killed a little girl (who wasn’t even playing, she was hit by an errant dart) and injured 6,000 children a year, many of whom were injured permanently. But kids need to toughen up, right? So coddled. It’s like they can’t even handle death.

11. Classic Cars

“They don’t make ’em like they used to” is a thing that people, usually idiots, say. No, they don’t make them like they used to ”” they make them about a thousand times safer. Sure, they’re nice to look at, but they’re death traps, so be glad they no longer rule the road.
