For me, it's easy. I don't smoke or do booze, so...

Soda pop.

I'm used to drinking a six-pack of stuff like Diet Rite every day.

M&M's.

The ability to go anywhere in the world in 24 hours or less (but I won't miss the plane trip itself).

I'll add more later.

Coke (soda), Internet, motorcycles, cars, air conditioning.

Long term: When I retire in 20 years, I wanted to own my own airplane. Not going to happen. :(

I forgot to say fireworks, and rocketry, they're awesome.

Boose isn't so hard to miss, at least all you need is yeast and a source of carbohydrates. You just need to grow grapes, and there you go.

I sure will miss the variety of food that I currently have. Of course, I still intend to have a cooking show that specializes in cannibal dishes, which I think I can get adapt to fairly quickly, as long as I pick a healthy stock. I think I'll call it "The Joys of...Pork."

I'm there will be plenty of casual sex among dumb people who don't think about disease. Rapes will probably make a comeback.

The biggest thing that I will miss is large quantities of meat. I'm talking about thick steaks and giant burgers. I'll be happy to see soda pops go, though.
