    The idea that stuff was better in the good old days is false. The stuff we have now from back then is the stuff that is either special or durable enough to have survived. And whatever it was probably cost a lot. A thousand+ dollars for a dresser (accounting for inflation) - stuff like that.

      I mean, if the average quality of anything has declined over the past few decades, it’s definitely clothing. We buy things more often at a lower price nowadays. That has to work out somehow.

        Lol no. Clothing is better than it has ever been. For the same price. See my comment again.

          Moreso confused by what relevance it had to my comment. I was making a joke about how cheap their clothes look and you come out talking about how the past wasnt as good as it seems.
