    Took them 5 hours to replace my ascending aorta and aortic valve and bypass 3 coronary arteries--I could have skied at 2 months but the surgeon said 3 so I waited. But they were doing that 30 years ago, in the 60's actually. 2 hours is pretty quick.

    Restaurants in Sacramento have sure gotten better; Truckee not so much--our favorites have been around for a while.

    I think society has gotten better at many aspects of raising children. A HUGE change is removing corporal punishment and violence from a child’s life. Look at the shit they used to do to kids 50 years ago, then look back 100 years ago. It was torture. No wonder you ended up with cruel, fucked up societies.

    Nah it's just that your tolerance has gone up through consistent intake so you (and me) either need to smoke more or better weed to get just as high.

    Rap went through some terrible times... ie like 2008-2018. Literally unlistenable.

    The golden age ended with Juvenile's song "Ha." After that it all got ridiculous.

    Nah and like was posted earlier, it’s access to quality weed.

    The availability of spicy food/hot sauces everywhere you go in ‘Murica.
    And the availability of outstanding bread.
    You used to have to either be in a big city, or go to Europe.

    I feel like a better question would be what hasn't. I feel like it would be a fairly short list.
    No longer stuck.

    I have one...road tripping late at night. Used to be if that lonely gas station was closed 50 miles from anywhere, you slept in the car (if you didn’t have a big enough gas can) until it opened.
    Swipe at the pump has alleviated some mileage anxiety.
