Walking through Blockbuster last week felt like a wake up call
I went into the old Blockbuster in Bend, Oregon just to see it one more time before it finally closes. Standing there looking at the empty shelves, I realized how the whole experience of picking a movie with friends just doesn't exist anymore with streaming. You'd argue over a box cover for 10 minutes and then someone would give in, that was half the fun. Why did we let convenience kill the ritual of actually hunting for a movie together?

Did I just hear myself say "hunting for a movie" like it was some kind of heroic quest instead of me and my brother circling the same shelf for 20 minutes over which comedy to rent?
