    Until people rediscover it and prices get jacked up several times over.

      It will not happen, or it hasn’t yet. Who wants a digital camera from 2010? Not many people. Still as good as a digital today.

      Very few products become popular later on with inflated prices. If that happens, I will live in 2009 instead, because I am the past man.

        mfw bought $25 digital camera from 2007 for shits and gigs instead of $300 modern one, takes good enough photos for someone who doesn’t know how to take them but wants more soul than AI phone cameras

        Shitty digital cameras from the 90s to the mid 2000s are kinda cool for the noise and digital artifacts they produce. It sucks that premium compacts have hardly progressed since their last push from 2009-2013. Since then, we’ve mostly just gotten very slightly upgraded versions of shit in the market a decade ago.

    I’m the past man. I live in the past. Not that far in the past. Around 2010 to 2011 I live in.

    I buy the best products and items from that time, used of course now, and I get premium products that were top of the range for next to nothing.

    Living in the past is cool. There is no demand for anything that was in demand then. I am the past man.

    >skincare
    I really can’t think of anything that was better in the past about skincare, people were hanging out in smoke filled bars and didn’t use sunscreen. One of the reasons you see pictures of 20 somethings in the 80s that look 10 years older.

    I remember that Schlansky vouches for a specific type of razor:

    I want to get a good razor that doesn’t cause damage or scarring or blistering to my skin on my chin or armpits which a cheap razor can do.

    Is it worth the price, though?

    I mean I really don’t want to cut corners here, if it comes to permanent damage and I remember hearing this was THE top quality razor.

    Electric shavers are better, sorry gay, go smoke your pipe in the corner.

      Come join the straight razor master race.
      By now I’m just as fast as with a safety razor and the cut is much better

        That’s me shaving in 2 minutes while you are jerking off to your dumb razor before taking it out of its funko pop style display shrine.

    Man I miss the 2000s aesthetic. back then it seemed like every new electronic device had a bold unique look. THAT seemed futuristic. Since some point after the iPhone, everything you buy looks like the same featureless rectangle. It went from a hopeful future aesthetic to a dystopian one FAST. What the heck happened?
