Things during your lifetime that you didn’t think would go....but did.
Bottled water. Pay a $1 for a bottle of water? Lol wth? So dumb. DERP
High School Bowling teams....growing pretty popular, quite surprising to me
Hyundai....copy of Honda and trash, sold a ton, greatly improved and all over the road
Grunge...I hated it and didn’t get it, had a nice run in the early to mid 90’s
Teh Internet.
Clearly this site.
The IPhone. When it first came out, I didn't see the appeal vs. a regular blackberry. So slow and so little you could do on it - why did you need constant internet access?
Tesla....Still isn't making money (without gubmit welfare), but is still somehow worth more than GM.

I mean I was joking, but only semi. I thought the OC would be fine for a couple years after starting up. I didn’t think it would be around this long.

I worked at Blockbuster back in High School when they decided not to buy Netflix...I said back then it was a terrible idea...
Rap music & I still can't understand half of what they are saying, let alone consider it music.

Because tons of free radio options at the time.
Not Amazon, per se.....just that I didn't think people would buy EVERYTHING (basically everything but cars) online to the point it's killing the mall and retail in genearl. Clothing, which has no consistent measurements, especially.

When I think Spotify, I think the desktop app version, where you can pretty much pick any song you want, at any time you want... free. I can see your point with a mobile app.

And when I think desktop, I think 50 year olds and up. :)
But in all actuality, I only know one person who doesn’t use it on phone/app. And that’s a cubicle worker who streams it on the work desktop.
