I don't understand the Michael Cera one. I got passed it but I'm still convinced there are only 3 pictures with him in it. That picture quality is atrocious.

Just because I still like the postal service doesn’t make me old. Ok the fact that I could’ve been referring to the band or the government agency and still been accurate might mean I’m old
23yo zoomer here. Like everyone else, I was stuck on the Michael Cera one for a while, but it was because I never heard of the guy and even after googling I didn't realise he was in one of the other photos.
Gosh texting on the Nokia felt so normal and equally a nice reminder on how nice the mobile keyboards we have now are.
I've never heard of a boomerang, the comments here filled me in but I'm not an Instagram user.
The iPod was fucking magical by the way, always wanted one as a kid growing up, even begging my parents just for the nano but they didn't see the value in that compared to the cheap knockoff MP4 players. I still want one nowadays but they're all stupid expensive.
I just picked the guy in more than one picture, haha.
The iPod was fucking brutal. I kinda remembered the spinny scroll thing, but I still don't really get anything else. I am supposed to be older than you.
I wasn't able to get past the donate to Obama phase.
I got to step 3 and it said Post the Boomerang? What the hell does that mean?
A boomerang is a short video that runs forwards, then backwards, then repeats. The post was already a boomerang, so you just needed to click share.
Yeah, a lot of these were lessened because the task was easy without any knowledge. I like the iPod one because the UX would be unfamiliar to someone who didn't use it. But things like "Type {phrase} into the search box" are really just a lame way to make a reference.
I guess sending something BACK, so I hit the "your story" button. Don't even know which app that was supposed to be.
Boomerang was an old feature on Instagram where it would just take a video and then loop it backwards when it reached the end. It was a really stupid phenomenon that nobody really used, hence the reason the got rid of it.
Exactly, a millennial has now clue about the newfangled kids stuff. Just hit "close friends"
How TF does it expect me to identify a person? I’m bad at identifying people I didn’t even know who it was. Had to keep trying random combinations. Rest were easy enough though. For the texting one, I kept trying the options button before realising I had to press verify.
