I'd miss the internet the most. I don't download videos, play games or listen to music on the net. I'm a knowledge junkie with a wide variety of interests and I research things constantly. Even if I could bring a library of books with me, it wouldn't have all the answers that I constantly hit the net to find.

As for music, I practically grew up in the recording industry and that's all I did for a living for many years. Still, I wouldn't miss it a bit. Besides, music is where you find it...or make it. Learn to play an instrument that you can either take with you or fit in a cache.

 

I'll miss the Internet...but I lived my 1st thrid without it. I'll make up for it by making my own music.

 

Air conditioning, refrigerator/freezer, and ice.

 

a roof and a warm wood burner

 

Re-runs of Gilligan’s Island







Ever notice all the things the professor could and did invent and how smart he was but he never could built a freaking boat to get them off the Island

 

my ipod loaded with music
and cheap vodka!

 

Ice Cold Beer

 

I tend to miss baths which is ridiculous, because I seldom have them otherwise (take showers.) Something about tramping through nowhere makes you want to lay back and soak.

 

Unfortunatly, Video Games, seems so shallow but, its true.

followed by security, a good nights sleep might mean you wake up with a crimson smile.

 

My car... I would miss working on it.

Internet would be a close second... I do love porn:thumb:

 

Down time. We'd have to be working constantly, with no chance to just sit back and relax.

As for nouns:

Grocery store
Home (and bed)
Internet

 

Air conditioning or a cold drink. Not a cool drink, but a cold one on a hot summers day. 33 degrees of sweaty bottled goodness.

 

I'd have to say easily accessable water / food....

 

Power tools.
Although I love using all of my hand tools, it is nice to pull out the table saw a rip a straight cut within seconds.
Ever use a ripsaw to rip a 12 ft board? PITA

 

Washing machine
Dish Washer
Central Heating
Gas Cooker
Mircowave
Internet
Pens and pencils - unless I can work out how to make charcoal
Writing paper

It wouldnt be music, as my brother and I can both play the flute, and his learning the saxophone and hopefully keyboard. I can already sing and hope to learn the keyboard/piano as well. I also have a dulcimer (lap harp), numerous recorders in the house, so no worries there.

 

Peace of mind
Women in heels & dresses
Reasearch on the PC
Music
Art
Vietnamese Spring Rolls
College Girls Gone Wild
Chocolate
Rum
English & German Beer
German & French Wine
Pepsi
Family Vacations

hey all that stuff will probably still be there ,if everyone's gone take it! it'll just rust and rot away if you don't.

 

ALL THAT STUFF
a few things maybe. but most no, Nuclearplants will shut down after 2 day of non human activity(so no Ice cold Beer) and if not sooner then the hole grid will fall apart, running water will be poluted fast without maintenence.
So unless you are completle of grid and make your own Fuel there wont be much of THAT STUFF left.(but he was proposing the Wild)

 

this always cracks me up, no offense to the OP, but alot up people have the delusion of running off and living in the wild...it's not gonna happen..well maybe for a very small percentage....your more than likely going to live in ruins of cities than have been devastated with disease,famine, and death....anywho i'll miss- running water, antibiotics, and miller light

 

mostly i would miss to be able to talk with my Family (without Internet),and Diariah pills.

I moved around the world 2 years ago and here(Honduras) i dont have most of the stuff what i was used to(dishwasher, washingmaschine.....), the stuff i miss most is SWISS CHOCOLATE AND SWISS CHEESE(i know its a cliche/stereotypish)
Next moths i am to start build my new home off the Grid so i hope i never will miss the electricity to use my Laptop and Fridge.

 

The two things I'll miss the most are coincidentally the two things I love the most, and I'm already not getting them: S.E.X. -- and a certain green plant with smokable flowers

 

godiva chocolate truffels mmm and well i guess i only need one thing to miss

 

Clean running water! That would definitely be missed!

 

easy recreation

A general one, easy recreation which covers stuff like the web and computer games but also driving to an amusement park, concerts or just getting together with family on Sunday for dinner and having it be no big deal. Second would be easy access to "stuff" such as extra toilet paper, abundant food at the grocery store or tons of gear at Cabela's.

 

Baby wipes. My a$$ is gonna hurt using leaves and such.

 

I'm handy enough that I can get a hot shower almost anywhere. Probably AC or some kind of cooling too, if I put my mind to it. I think what I'd miss most is a variety in cheese. Yep, I can go to the store and get pretty much any kind of cheese from anywhere in the world for a few dollars. That wouldn't last.

 

As laughable as it sounds, I will miss clean underwear. Undies are pretty high up on my totem pole of comfort items.

 

Just get yourself a rain-barrel and stock up on the detergent. One of those old washboards and bucket might be useful too.
