    For “listened to a boombox outside,” does it matter whether you did so voluntarily or just heard it because someone else was playing one too loudly for you to ignore? In other words, I’m either 0 or 1.

    I have 1 point.

    I never owned an encyclopedia.

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

    Only one that I haven’t done is paper checks. Those weren’t really a thing here.

    Of course, a few of those have come back around to be used by younger generations. There’s teens who rediscovered Polaroid and other film cameras in recent years. Ten years ago, cassettes saw a resurgence and vinyl was also selling well.

    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

    1. No Blockbuster in Germany, and noone uses checks here.

    Edited from Europe to Germany as some pointed out that there is Blockbuster and checks in other countries

    But only because we pay in cash and block buster was never a thing here.

    I have touched a type writer but never used it for writing letters or whatever you write with it.

    I just sent a fax a few days ago…

    I never owned a walkman or discman but my older sister had a discman and I got one of the first mp3 players xD.

    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 point. I’ve never sent a postcard… I bought one with a shifting hologram on the front for the purposes of sending a Thank-You note. I just never got around to sending it.

    I still do a lot of this other stuff with some regularity.
