With age comes experience. And with experience comes knowing which trends are A+, and which are a big ol' F.

So, if you're an older adult, we want to know: Which trend from the past do you want to make a comeback?

Maybe it's a trend in the traditional sense of the word, like a fashion thing. Maybe you wish the groovy but earthy aesthetic of 1970s decor would come back, because you just love brown and orange!

Or maybe there's a social trend you miss. Like, instead of you and your friends being on your phones, maybe you wish some phone-free time would come back around.

Or heck, maybe you just miss your Tamagotchi (sorry, millennials, we're kinda old now).
