Lays had some chocolate covered potato chips that would come out around the holidays. I didn't care for them myself, but my wife loved them and I miss buying them for her
G2 Grape Gatorade Drink
Cherry NOS energy drink
Miiverse on the Wii U. Every games felt like a community. You could share tips, screenshots, etc… some games even had integrations like chat bubbles in Mario Maker. I always went out of my way to pick up a message in a bottle in Windwaker.
When they shut it down, the console main screen felt VERY empty and each players, very alone (You can spare the jokes about how we were alone anyway since it didn’t sell well)
Mango juul pods
The mcrib in USA
Reese's banana cream peanut butter cups
Journeyman, The OA
Not "technically" discontinued, but almost
Buying products and owning them.
Buying products and getting full repair manuals and electrical schematics
Cathode ray tubes
Overbuilt refrigerators and washing machines
Clothes that last and are repairable
Houses built with full bricks and iron with actual straight walls and unbroken woodwork
Trader Joe’s Belgian Chocolate Pudding. It was really good with fresh strawberries mixed in.
Sense8. We got a finale, but cramming 3 seasons into 2 hours showed.
Such a cool concept, I really enjoyed the show.
Santa Clarita Diet.
Just needed one more season to wrap things up. Damn you Netflix
Taco Bell's black bean burritos.
Light pickup trucks.
People will inevitably come in here saying "whatabout the Maverick and Colorado?" but those trucks are all the size of full size HDs from 30 years ago.
Edit: don't even get me started on the Tacoma bloat, the "only mid-size truck on that market" which is the same size as a Humvee.
Yeah. I hate that shit. Those suck too.
Indeed. I have a (parked for the past year, need major suspension work but w/e) S10 which is honestly perfect for me. I know that even in the 90s it was seen as a "mini" truck, but it's carried everything I've ever needed to haul
If the made them again I'd buy one for sure. I had one I high school but the transmission went out so I traded it in for a Civic (which I still have). I love the car but it's annoying having to borrow my dad's truck every couple weekends when I need to haul stuff and I hate driving it because it handles like a school bus and I'm too short to see over the front end.
ReBoot and Beast Machines
ReBoot somehow managed to get cancelled three times and revived twice. That third cancellation and its cliffhanger, though...
The startup sound on my computer in the 90's was "Warning: Incoming Game."
I have that sound effect play by a switch by my bed that turns the room into Fuck Mode, blacklights, lava lamps, and a silicone Snit mask
The show This Fool. It was absolutely hilarious.
Jericho, I remember fans sent in tons of peanuts to the studio as a protest.

The Logitech K800 keyboard. I swear by them, had 5 of them over the course of like more then a decade.
Super soft illuminated keys, super nice to work with, I have the last one here on my desk and I can't find new ones anymore.
They were quite pricey, around 80-100 dollars, but man it was nice while it lasted
New keyboard every couple of years sounds like a shitty keyboard. Why not change to something with better build quality?
Looks down at his second-hand, 13 year old HP 5309U product code GM321AA and thinks "Damn dude. Sure my keyboard has nine keys that are worn so much that most are missing the print on them. And sure, it's not a mechanical keyboard. But I didn't have to spend a dime for it and it's still working just fine for me.
pricey
80-100
Damn man that's probably on the low end of mech keyboards
Coyote vs Acme
The movie is already completely finished, but some "genius" thinks that they'll make more money by shelving it and claiming it for a tax-writeoff.
