A bunch of words for a title for this post, but its true. I hate change, especially when it affects places around you. I hate the fact that you can order movies offline and have them in your mailbox almost the next day. what ever happen to going to video stores? and not ones like blockbuster, im talking about those mom and pop video shops where they don't have 40 copies of a new release. But a treasure chest of classics. in this day in age there is very rarely a mom and pop owned video store. where you can still go and rent VHS tapes. where you get a 5 day rental for 3$. I remember when i was younger and my mom or one of my many brothers and sisters would take me to the video store on Friday nights and we would rent movies, as well as super nintendo video games. and these places always had a gumball machine where you could get a gumball that would win you a free rental. these places dont exist anymore.
Everyone is so into ordering offline that it makes it hard for shops in there community to survive. This might sound weird coming from someone who's brands success is owed to the internet. but if people would still order off of mail in catalogs. i would be doing that instead. Maybe im just to into the golden age of the 90's i dunno.
support your local video stores.
