- AA/AAA batteries - I thought we'd have evolved into better energy sources

- DVD players - still see them around

- Watches. With cell phones for telling time, I would've expected them gone but they've stood the test of time. They sustained themselves well

Watches aren't worn just to tell the time anymore, dummy.

They are obsolete, the movie Industy just makes getting movies a pain in the arse in streaming formats so this route is still cheaper at times.

It doesn't have much time left. Probably totally gone for most by 2020 I suppose

"Jack Hunt" references, but oddly they can still be delicious.

I have a watch full of diamonds. I wear it just to look like an a-hole.

Typewriters, still a common fixture in federal/ state government offices, and a lot of law offices. Typewriter ribbon is available on Amazon, and there are still typewriter repair shops in most large cities

Sex shops that sell porn videos and toys like Mr Binkys and the Hustler Store. With the invention of the internet, red tube and amazon, why would anyone set foot in one of those places?

Hair gel for men. The Pee Wee Herman look has run its course.

Head shaving look.
