What is something about your childhood that you DON'T miss?

Honestly, purchasing stuff. If you didn't live in a major city you just couldn't get certain things. Buying stuff online was hard and often expensive. I've been tinkering with old/cheap tech lately and a lot of problems can be fixed if you just buy the correct cable or go to the library to 3D print a stand or case for a few bucks. Back then if you got a new game for your birthday and it came with "X99923 Videocard Encoding Error" you were out of luck.

I hated alot of things about growing up.  But if I had to pick one, it's definitely school.  Since I left, I've never thought for one moment "those were the days".  I was miserable almost every second.  It's 20 years later and even now, thinking back to it, I get a sense of relief knowing that I'll never have to do that again.
