I haven't seen older ladies blue rinse their hair for several years.

I don't think many workplaces require pantyhose any longer.

I remember when all underwear left visible panty lines. Our only solution was to go without, or wear pantyhose alone under our jeans or trousers.
Thanks for this!

I’ve actually read that sending you’re welcome emails after someone says thank you is annoying because it creates unnecessary email.

I didn’t realize this, but I’ve noticed no one sends the you’re welcome email at work, so I don’t do it now.

A lot of people do not send “thank you” cards anymore. I went to a wedding reception and brought a gift. It’s been almost three weeks and no card. My grandmother had a church member pass away. She took two pies, water and a fruit tray. My grandmother received no card.

Ashtrays.....they used to be everywhere and were a perfect gift. Most people's houses had a yellow patina coating the inside of their houses, now smoking inside is declass. Can't smoke in an airplane anymore either.

^^Along the same lines, kids addressing adults as Mr. and Mrs. rather than by their first names. "Sir" and "ma'am," I'm told, have also gone the way of "forsooth" and "methinks."
