All these “modern technologies” and “progressive social norms” are great, but there are a few things the olde worlde had figured out better than us. Thankfully, Ren Faires are there to bring us back.
Food.
Nearly everything is eaten with your hands, from bacon on a stick to cheesecake on a stick to turkey legs on a stick (actually bones).

Food is just better on sticks.

Booze.
Not only does wine made from honey exist, it's called mead and you can get it at Renaissance Faires. It is criminal that it's not more widely available.

Bartenders.
When the bartender at your local watering hole hears you're having your first drink, does he make an elaborate oral sex joke out of it and get everyone to yell "Huzzah!" for you when you're done?
