nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 I once swore at someone about trying to call our office fax machine and it turned out that yeah... it's using sound to communicate... they heard me ๐ณ
That's amazing ๐
don't know what Columbia House is, but the rest 100% guilty
It was a catalog of cds where you would get 10 CDs for $10
It was a was a music CD subscription service.
Pretty sure I still owe them money.
Me too? Why did they let a kids order $100+ worth of CDs.
Exactly
nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 what about BMG music service? Columbia House DVD?
I totally forgot about Columbia house. CD of the month. They send it. You listen. If you keep it you pay. What a trap.
No MySpace, Columbia house, or AOL but every single one of the others.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck ๐
The Columbia record house was amazing
Yes! I don't know how they let kids sign up for that ๐
Used Nostr when you still had to manually copy / paste URLs to post pictures.
Lol shit. All of em
Typewriters were all gone by the time I needed to use one.
I used one at my mom's office. I was always fascinated by it ๐ฅน
Same here

Kids don't have to learn cursive in school anymore?
Nope. My kids didn't. I think that's weird. How are they supposed to legally sign their name?
Same here
Same- I could go deeper I think๐
8-track with the matchbook jammed in to stop the warble and bleed; 45 record player; black and white TV Fuck!
reading the news on reuters ticker tape, sending/recieving telegram, gas lamps on the street, coal and milk deliveries to the door .... i need to stop for a rest.
GM ๐
Hmm. My grandparents had these things ๐ My grandparents didn't even have electricity and indoor plumbing to their houses.
I never used 8-track as far as I can remember. I did own many 45s though.
A Columbia House order away from a full stack. Shucks.
I did order from the Quelle Katalog, tho (only #DACH know this).
Lol Quelle. That's OG
Almost all of it
Learned cursive lol
AIM open door sound (still the best sound) especially whenโs itโs your crush ๐คฉ
ICQ uh-oh!
It was a much simpler time. Maybe the title should be โyou might be a more balanced person ifโฆโ
Had to put on your reading glasses to take the test..... 1 point
Damn, I already feel like a boomer.
Missed only one of these.... OMG! I'm a dinossaur!
๐
Oof. Same here. Missing โOwned a Pager/Beeperโ
personal favorite is: Learned Cursive
Right there with you.
Don't worry, they're 'cool points' ๐
in my mind I'm like , yes I'm the youngest man alive , and yet I did answer yes to every single one of those
Gen X - Gadget History Log
I had a MySpace account!
All but My Space. Still have a large number of VHS tapes and cassettes and players for both. Also still have/use my AOL account.
Hmm that reminds me. One of these days I need to convert a bunch of old family VHS tapes to digital video for my parents.
Every single one too!
Played in the yard
Walked to and or from school
Trimmed pakalolo for my little pony money
I had never ordered from Columbia House!!! ๐ฃ
Used a Rotary phone? lol god damn Derek! ๐
I had one most of the 80s I bet.
That's wild dude. lol. My family had a corded phone in the 90s, wireless in the 2000s. I wouldn't even know how to use a Rotary phone tbh ๐
I bet it was until the mid or late 80s we had the rotary phone. Hard to remember. We had cordless phones that had metal pull out antennas in the early 90s or so ๐
Damn it!
2 points if you are STILL using?
All of them ๐๐ค๐ซก
Ditto
same
Everything apart from a MySpace account and whatever Columbia House was. Older than you but not as old as you ๐
Iโm 8-inch floppy disc young.

I miss receiving and sending letters and postcards...was fascinating the surprise! ๐
Still have some. ๐
Welp, that is a 24/24 for me, and I'm barely Gen X. Wait, that is old nowadays. Crap. I built a fairly large CD collection cycling Columbia House memberships.
All of them except 3...I dont think Ive ever sent a fax ๐
No boombox, no Atari but a C64, no Colombia House equivalent and no AOL or other free internet from a CD. Yeah. Boomer.

I had this one. 
Me too, and the one I resent younger people the most for having lost in just one generation is cursive. People just three or four years younger than me already can't write.
By the way, I sent a fax last month. To the IRS.
