It is amazing some of these trends are still around today. Time will tell if they ever truly go away, but here are some of Reddit’s predictions on trends that will go away with time.
Giant China Cabinets
“Giant china cabinets with whole extra sets of plates that are used once or twice in a lifetime” One said, another added “Now they’re old and sentimental, they’re even more TOO NICE to use!”
QVC
“Last nights show featured two women advertising a shower gel… by washing their hands for twenty minutes straight. Talking about how good the soap felt in their hands.” One user said.
More and more people are shopping on their smartphones.
Timeshares
One Redditor said “Both sides have timeshares that they want to pass down and no one wants them. Convinced our generation that they are a huge pain and not the deal or gift that they think it is.”
Phone books
Suits in the Workplace
More relaxed dress codes are seeming to become the norm. With companies making work-from-home more popular, relaxing dress codes could be a way to get people to want to come back into the office.
Fax machines

Here, you can take this to a bank and exchange it for actual currency to deposit into your account. After a few days of course.
Landlines
