0 points. I feel old.

1. Blockbuster didnt exist in the EU.

5 but it depends if "used" is defined as actually in an every day situtation or because found an old typewriter in the attic and played around with it

0, and I've done 4 of these in the last year.

0; am old. What's funny is that it's 2025 and anyone trying to get internet in Japan with one of the only two fiber providers (NTT) still has to send a fax to set it up.

One point. I have never owned an encyclopedia unless Encarta counts. My parents owned one when I was a kid, and I used the library encyclopedia a ton. I'm in my early 50s. I'm surprised the encyclopedia is not the most common point.

This is basically a "are you old" questionaire.

I'm 39 ☹️ zero points.

0

1 point. I never recorded music off the radio.

The fax one is funny because I do that just about every day. People seem to forget that doctor's offices still use them - far more secure than email.

I have 1 point.

I never owned an encyclopedia.

If I had the money then I definitely would have owned one.

0 here as well. Really feels like a Gen X/Millennial thing.

0 of course, old guys rule!

The country were I was living when I rented videos didn't have Blockbuster, so 1.

1 point, only because my parents never bought an encyclopedia set. They were absolutely a thing when I was a kid. I definitely used one before, but never owned them. Hooray for being old I guess.

Zero (born in '66). Can we add some more to the list?

21: had to wait for the television to warm up

I'm a zoomer and only got three points hahaha

2 points.

I have never written a check, and as far as I know, there were no Blockbusters in this country.

0

1 point. I don't even own a cheque book.

One point. Never recorded a CD from the radio.

The encyclopedia belonged to my grandparents, but I lived there and used it.

My score was 4!

I've never used a rotary phone, record off radio to cassette (although I did on an MP3 player), never used a boombox outside, and I never used dial up.

Pretty boomer for someone born in '99, eh?

I don't know why these are asked in the past tense like I don't still do these things.

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.

Born in 1986.. Zero 0

0 points

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.

13

Read it wrong, I have nothing

I want a new test

1, We never had blockbuster in NL. But 0 if any other VHS rental store counts.

I even have an old rotary phone on my desk.

4 points. Being a 90's baby, got to do a fair number of these.

19! (not "nineteen factorial"). I had used a floppy disk once.

2 I've never really used a typewriter, I've never listened to a vinyl record. Everything else was relatively common growing up in the 90s, being born in the late 80s.

Why is the 8-track never on these lists?

0 I'm old 😆

5, but only because i love to tinker with old technology (Gen Z)
