2 or 4 depending on how strict you are.

Ha!! One point! In yo face!!!

Sorry got too excited there for a second. I have never sent a postcard. Bought em though and rcvd them but never sent.

I mean I am old, yes, but I feel like most North American millennials would get the same.

I'm gen z but I still only got 3 points. I live in the sticks, so no blockbuster. Also no walkman, though I have used portable cassette players. And never recorded from radio to cassette. Maybe you could give me another point, because my dad had to send a fax for me, but I felt involved in the process.

I guess 2 points, I've not owned my own dictionary or encyclopedia. Born in 1989.

0

Do I get negative points if I still own and use many of these things?

• Never listened to music on a CD;
• never listened to a vynil record;
• never listened to a walkman
• never listened to a boombox (had to search what this was)
• never sent a postcard

36 years old. Just grew up mostly without access to music until I got my first PC. But I did have the opportunity to use a radio with a cassete tape player a few times as a kid.

1. Never owned a whole encyclopedia.

But probably -1 for not only rotary phone but "party line"; sometimes you couldn't use the phone because someone else, in another house, was using that line.

Two because #13 and #20 weren’t a thing in my country.

Which floppy disc? The one whith the sliding metal thingy or the bendy one? Just kidding... I used both :D

I turn 29 in a few months and scored 2. I would not be surprised if I've forgotten an instance of using a typewriter or listening to a boombox outside though.

1 and that's only because Blockbuster wasn't a thing near me and we instead went to the local video shop.

1 point. Never listened to a boombox outside. I have owned a boombox, though.

1 point. I've never sent/received a fax.

15 points.

I've listened to music on CDs and cassette tapes, watched a VHS tape, recorded music from the radio, and at one point owned a dictionary.

I rented videos, but not at blockbuster... Otherwise 0 points

2 points

Never sent a FAX. Scanners were common place and only sent pic/pdfs by email when needed.

Never owned an encyclopedia.

14 points 😬. I'm surprised at the amount of zeroes in the comments.

Ha!! I'm not old at all. I got 21 points!

never used a Sony Walkman! so that's 1 point for me...

10 points, though maybe less depending on how strict you are. For example I've seen floppy disks and seen my dad use them (we had a whole stack of them at home), or my mom send and receive faxes, but by the time I was old enough to use a computer or need to send communications it was CDs and email instead of faxes.

Two points. Wtf would I send a postcard? I also don't believe I've ever sent a fax, though I may have gone to an office supply store to have that done to a business and don't recall.

• No typewriter ( would kill for a real TTY though)
• Haven't listened to vinyl ( I really want to get into that, overwhelmed with stuff I need to learn)
• No boombox ( and thank god for that - this shit looks heavy af)
• Not recorded music to a cassette ( only from lack of trying, had a radio accepting cassettes with "record" button)
• No postcard ( not a big thing around these parts)

I have listened to a cassette but not a CD. It was mainly stories when I was young. By the time I was had any interest in music, limewire existed. Once limewire died I downloaded from youtube instead.

Edit: So looked it up and apparently CDs had been around for ages, but my parents bought me stuff on cassettes instead. Maybe it was second hand.

Only 3 🥲

Never had a blockbuster, a fax nor cheques. I can't remember using my boombox outside, C Batteries were expensive and cumbersome.

So 3 points.
