I got 5, so which Kardashian am I? Not sure the point.
2 points.
I have never written a check, and as far as I know, there were no Blockbusters in this country.
Me too. Though I'd say we can substitute any locally available video renting store with Blockbuster. So it would only be 1 point.
4 points. Being a 90's baby, got to do a fair number of these.
- Used the old broken 19" TV as a stand for the new, smaller, sleeker 19" TV.
- Your first video game console had a rotating paddle for a controller
Do I get negative points if I still own and use many of these things?
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.
Read it wrong, I have nothing
- Never listened to music on a CD;
- never listened to a vynil record;
- never listened to a walkman
- never listened to a boombox (had to search what this was)
- never sent a postcard
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.
0 🤣
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.
1... Never used fax
I was born at the start of the '90s, and I only got 1 point.
1 point - I've never sent a postcard lol
An whole point for not living in an area near a blockbuster
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.
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!?!?!
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.
Null pwang! Maybe I should consider entering Eurovision.

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