Internet porn made Penthouse and Hustler obsolete. At least for me.

Correct answer. Things like paper maps, etc, are still useful as backups, and will be for the forseeable future. You can't even find a working pay phone anymore.
I saw one a couple weeks ago down around Foley when we stopped to fuel up on our way home from the beach. Course the first thing I thought was "wow, there's a pay phone. You don't see those anymore."

3.5" floppy disks
They are used as the save icon in most applications but most people under the age of 21 have never seen one or operated a computer with a floppy drive.
