Please just let me recline a bit more.

Ship travel in the age of sail was more accommodating. At least you can walk around and shit.

Meanwhile, me aboard a train: "Oh you can get whole massive meals on restaurant cars these days? No thank you, I'll get a coffee and one of those overpriced naff sandwiches." (Well, the Finnish train sandwiches are pretty good, but they are hella overpriced. Like 7€. WTF.)

7 Euros = 7.55 USD That is a pretty normal price for a sandwich in the USA. I wish I considered that overpriced. 5 or more years ago I probably would have said that was overpriced.

My father's generation thought planes would just get faster and faster and by now we'd be able to fly from NYC to Tokyo in 40 minutes

Concorde wasn't far off that sort of speed. But it was too expensive. Such speeds will probably return in some form one day.

They used to be also fascinated by plastic.

I bet their smiles would not last long realizing that the 5g bag of pretzels has 2g of plastic (and that's just the tip of the plastiberg).

Because we don't own the means of production.
