Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE
0 I have 0 points 👴
Right there with ya.
Same and some of these things I've done in the last couple years.
Done them all and I see 4 that still apply today.
Zero as well. Damn we’re old 👴
Young Matt Damon fades into old Matt Damon.
Same and I'm not even 30 ^^`
Same what a feel bad meme.
Yuuuup.
0 point gang rise up.
But don't rise too quickly. I know our backs don't like that.
I have 1 point but only because there was never a Blockbuster in Germany. Can I rise too?
Also german, I guess any spot to take out videos counts also. So welcome to the "0 point club".
You can rise.... But let's be extra careful with raising that right arm.
Same, 1 point because no Blockbuster in NZ
I assume there was an equivalent service though?
The fire rises brother! (OK, not an appropriate quote, just wanted to say it.)
Hey folks, is this where the old farts are hanging out? Point me toward the bathroom, I'll be a while.
Preach on, brother. Just came back from my physio. He did some dry needling on my lower back because it ain't what it used to be when I was still Wired for Sound.
Yeah I can't recall using a typewriter seriously, but for sure I've used on for fun. Also trying to get a commodore 64 to print my homework in 1992 should aub in nicely.
Yup, flat zero.
I am reporting this post.
…. 0 points…. 🙂
Hello old friend
Yeah, the hurts-to-get-out-of-bed is real.
1 Point, we don't use cheques in Germany. Maybe 2 points, but I'd count my local Videotheque as the equivalent of the "Blockbuster" video chain.
3, same with the cheques in Germany
Actually... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocheque
(I never used one, but remember my parents paying with it at the supermarket)
I'm exactly the same, only i'm from the Netherlands
There was a time when people used cheques in Germany. I remember my father using them ages ago
2 points, but only because we don't have blockbuster where I'm from, I have rented movies though. I have also never used a check to pay for anything.
Same.
1 point for the same reason, but having used traveler's cheques :)
Your age is 40 minus your number of points.
I'm 60 so I'll take 40.
40-4 points is 36, I’m turning 35 this year 😹 only missed it by a year
40-14 is also off by half a year, dang
I just turned 45. But I have 1 point. I’d happily pretend to be 39 though.
I'll need a couple of negative points for that to hold true.
Gasp, burn the witch
Ouch.. aged three years in a single day.
Oof this is too accurate
0
0 :( one of my guitar amps I hacked together out of a Walkman so I could practice while waiting for the bus how many negative points do I get
I am proudly batting zero.
- Sent or received a fax
You clearly do not live in Germany
I will implemented a service that will rely partly on faxing documents into a new web app this year.
I get zero points. Elder millennials rally at the landline we'll have two drinks and fall asleep at 10pm!

Come at me grandpas
All of them.
Also, I own a house, have no college debt and have met Steve Irwin and talked to Alec Guinness and Terry Pratchett in person.
Your move young whippersnapper.
I do agree a lot of zoomers just suck with computers. I am not one of them unfortunately, I am confident in my ability to use a computer which kinda backfired cause now I have my boomer relatives AND my zoomer friends asking for tech support.
I technically own a house (long story short, it was to pay less taxes)
I paid only ~2000€ in university taxes this year and don't have college debt. I'd argue this problem is mostly with being an American (which I am not) rather than being a zoomer.
Steve Irwin is the only thing you have over me, and I don't know who the others are.
I thought I would be at the low end at 12…
Maybe the younger people didn't have the patience to read all 20 bullet points and comment as well?

Fuck, I'm old.
Older Gen X'er here.
This list was basically a Tuesday for me back in the day.
Big fat zero for me.
I got zero.
Yes I'm old. On the plus side I still have my family commadore 64 from 1982.
So wish I still had my VIC-20 and 64.
None. Zip. Zilch. Zero.
Let’s just say that at some places, I get senior discounts. Not ALL places, but some.
I am also at zero. Makes me wonder what is so relevant TODAY that will be completely out of style in 20 years
Carried portable media (USB drive).
Used earbuds/headphones with a cable.
Used a standalone calculator.
Replaced a disposable battery.
8 points. I'm born in 1997.
Edit : if the company Blockbuster doesn't matter then I've done 6.
0 points if you count public libraries as "blockbuster adjacent" and I'm only a year older than you.
I was born in 98, got 5 points.
I've rented video before, so I'm counting blockbuster.
I'm at 3 points from a similar age. 8, 12, 13.
0, and I've done 4 of these in the last year.
I'm 39 ☹️ zero points.
0
One point. Never recorded a CD from the radio.
The encyclopedia belonged to my grandparents, but I lived there and used it.
0 of course, old guys rule!
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.
Me too. Though I'd say we can substitute any locally available video renting store with Blockbuster. So it would only be 1 point.
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.
I wasn’t sure if my parents owning an encyclopedia set qualified me for the point or not.
But then I remembered I owned the Microsoft Encarta encyclopedia CD. Did you own that?
Absolutely, but I don't think that counts and docked myself that point.
Why is the 8-track never on these lists?
Cause it's too old for the list writers to know about? Also, their adoption rate was pretty poor.
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.
Zero.
Ye, null. 🤣
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.
19! (not "nineteen factorial"). I had used a floppy disk once.
5, but only because i love to tinker with old technology (Gen Z)
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.
