Sky TV and streaming services in general, price keeps going up and there's zero to watch most nights.

Cars, everything is an extra, "oh you wanted wheels..well ye should have said"

They may be getting more expensive, but cars habe got infinitely better in the last 20 years. Do you remember having to give a car a mini-service, and a full check over before going on a long journey? And having to carry a toolbox for said trip? I find people have completely forgot how shit cars used to be.

(I saying that, doing those checks with my dad is probably why I became an engineer)

Anything gadgety, they've got more complex for complexities sake but are built from ever cheaper components.

Maybe but I’m not sure there’s 5K of improvements between the one I’m driving now and model I bought two years previously 🤷
