    I miss video stores, for sure. Blockbuster itself wasn’t great but it was so omnipresent in our lives that it has become shorthand for “video stores” the way Band-Aids are shorthand for adhesive medical strips. Often, when people reminisce about “Blockbuster,” it isn’t really about Blockbuster itself but just the culture of the rental store as it existed back then.
