I just want to Netflix and Chill like it's 1999.
Netflix has become a staple of entertainment. It's assumed that everyone you know has an account, and if they don't, they're using someone else's.
But let's not forget how Netflix started back in 1998 as a revolutionary DVD-by-mail service. Users would create a queue of movies or TV shows online, and then the company and its customers would exchange DVDs by mail. (This service actually still exists.)

Here are 10 things we miss about it:
1. Inviting someone over to watch Netflix made you feel super fancy.
Via Giphy2. There was no fear of a bad Wi-Fi connection getting in the way of movies loading.
3. Receiving a Netflix envelope in the mail was the ultimate after-school excitement.
Via Giphy4. A Netflix and Chill invitation didn't come with any pressure to do more than just watch Netflix.
Via Giphy5. There was no burden to watch every episode of 10-season shows like Friendswithin three days.
Via Giphy6. Indecisiveness didn't cut into watching time as much, because there were only three DVDs to choose from.
Via Giphy7. Instead of Netflix's "continue watching" prompt, the DVD would straight up stop playing -- a kind reminder of your humanity.
Via Giphy8. Malnourishment due to binge watching spirals was less of a problem. You could get a snack and change the DVD in one trip!
Via Giphy9. DVDs came with special features.
Via Giphy10. No one ever asked you for your Netflix password.
