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.

I mean I am old, yes, but I feel like most North American millennials would get the same.
3, I'm in my 20s btw
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.
Do I get negative points if I still own and use many of these things?
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. I've never sent/received a fax.

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.
never used a Sony Walkman! so that's 1 point for me...
1.... Only one I missed was Blockbuster. We didn't have one where I lived but I have rented videos.
I'm gonna say that counts. They shouldn't have specified a specific rental place.
I actually plan to buy the latest print encyclopedia I can find. Just in case. Fuck them trying to kill everything good on the internet.
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.
Ha!! I'm not old at all. I got 21 points!
Two because #13 and #20 weren’t a thing in my country.
I'm old, but never sent or received a fax or rented from Blockbuster specifically, we had plenty of local "mom&pop" stores.
Never paid with cheque, by the time I was old enough to have any significant amount of money (~2011) they were already almost entirely phased out
1 point, number 4.
But I know I am gonna get a other point soon.
I already know that my gf gifts me a acdc Back in Black Vinyl.
