I got 1 (13) because there is no blockbuster in my country. But I've used equivalent stores, so I guess I got 0. Did I win a price?

(18) I have some dictionaries and listened to music on a CD (because some of my devices had the ability so I had to try it).

1 point because cheques have always been rare in my country.

2 if you are strict with the Blockbuster thing, we had Videoland instead but I have rented video tapes from a video rental store like Blockbuster.

11. Sent or received a fax

You clearly do not live in Germany

14...yall know half this shit is still valid or required.

Paper checks and faxes are still in use and Japan got rid of floppy disks in govt right before plague. (Shit, that was 5 years ago...)

WHAT DECADE IS IT!?!?!

I am reporting this post.

None. Zip. Zilch. Zero.

Let’s just say that at some places, I get senior discounts. Not ALL places, but some.

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.

Why is the 8-track never on these lists?

Typewriter, vinil, fax, and payed with check, those are the only 4 things I never done. The boom box I don’t know what it is.

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.

2 points. I did technically "use" my dad's old typewriter once or twice, but only to check it out/play with it, not to actually write something. Have never paid by cheque. Have done all the others.

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

Two points. I've never paid for anything by cheque (we have had bank transfers in Finland for ages) and Blockbuster didn't operate here (we had our local video rental chains, and the convenience store chain that I used to go to is still in business, just, you know, not having movies for rent any more)

If you just got a point for never having written a postcard, go write a postcard! And mail it to someone that you appreciate in your life. It doesn't need to be from anywhere exotic or say anything profound, it just takes a few sentences. If you really want to get fancy about it, a lot of little art galleries sell postcard sized prints and you can give someone a tiny little piece of art that speaks to you. Or go to a museum and buy like 10 at the gift shop and keep a stockpile to send when you want to reach out. People love it, and you probably will too.

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

Born 1992

• 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)

11. If you count me messing with stuff as using it then 9. But they didn't work unfortunately. Born 2005

The only one I got close on was I never had a chequebook of my own, but did on a couple of occasions use bank cheques for mail-ordered things.

Presuming we're counting that, big fat goose egg.

3 point

Last three on the list.

Never actually owned dictionary or encyclopedia. somebody just left them at my place, because nobody wanted them, so I used them as a door stop. If they are considered my property, because they were abandoned at my property then just 1 point.

7 Points. Born in 2004 🤔

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.

20 points! Finally a test I aced!!!
