If I went back in time would I always miss modern tools and culture?

A light one for Saturday and a bit of a fun thought exercise: say I went back to the 1930s and got stuck there. Would I constantly Marty McFly ("Yeah, Ive seen this one!") every new cultural and technological development?
A light one for Saturday and a bit of a fun thought exercise: say I went back to the 1930s and got stuck there. Would I constantly Marty McFly ("Yeah, Ive seen this one!") every new cultural and technological development or would I eventually fall back into the swim of it all, experiencing things like everyone else? Would I perhaps go down further into deeper niches to find my interests since I've already seen the stuff that has lasted? Would I maybe appreciate those old (to me) things in new ways because I am experiencing them now at "ground level", as it were.
