My mothers maiden name is punjab.

1 point.
I have never sent a postcard. Bought plenty as a cheap souvenir/collectible thing and have received some before; never actually mailed one to someone or even gave one to someone in person.
I am 40.

Mid 20s, and I got 10 points. 9 points if the blockbuster one does not mean blockbuster specifically
2, maybe 3. Never used a typewriter, never owned an encyclopedia, I can’t recall ever sending a postcard.
5 (I'm 18 lol)
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.

One point for the typewriter.
Two points. I'm 33.
At least 6 and Im 31, more if I get super pedantic.
For instance
- printed out directions for my dad and he followed them
- Rented dvds from blockbuster
- kids pink typewriter that i couldnt use properly
- flipped through phone book to pretend i was terminator Etc.
I got zero points.. guess I'm old now?
- Surprising, because I'm Gen Z, but I have used typewriters and Walkmen.

6, 7 if Bluetooth speaker outside doesn't count as boombox, because my speaker is a box and it booms, but it's not called that.
