Things that quietly disappeared in the last 20 years

[the_interloper]

I can't go back to footy with ads during play and games on delay.

All the other streaming apps can easily live without. There is not enough content to warrant Netflix, Stan, Binge, Prime, Paramount+, Optus Sports, Disney+, Apple TV etc. all existing.

I'm happy with Youtube, Kayo and, ahem, "rivers"

What games on delay?

*Ads fair enough

Games into WA. We used to get Friday Night Footy at 8.30pm for games that started at 5.50. At this time of year they start at 4.50. Pretty sure the Cats/Freo game was on 7 but delayed a few hours the other week.

yeh certain games in first 8 rounds of season (in WA, SA, Qld and NSW featuring local teams) which are Foxtel only super saturday games still get shown on free to air in these states, even though foxtel exclusives, but the catch is they are delayed.

so this weekend for example, in qld, SUNS game saturday v Melbourne is a foxtel only super saturday game, but will be delayed on free to air 7.

i have a $1 kayo deal i am signing up for on friday to have a month which will overcome the fact that there are a few SUNS away games at start of year on saturday i wont get live from this new tv deal.

Topless women at the beach. It was fairly common back in the day.

Totally understandable why no-one does it anymore. You just know some creep would take pics on his phone and send them to his mates.

Yeah hard no from me. Hard no to nudist beaches too. Gross.

I still see a few here and there. Probably visiting europeans, partic at beaches closer to byron

Rock music, it hasn't completely disappeared, but it's very close to it.
Australian sense of humour. It's really disappeared!
Good Dr Who adventures... The writing now stinks!

Good to hear, but there are still too few....it's just a trickle unfortunately.

While playing in a band still gets you laid, as Shakey puts it rock and roll can never die.
