Sorry, If You Did 10/15 of These Things You’re Old Now

Are you over the hill?

14 comments

Many of us like to reminisce about things we used to do when growing up. These are experiences that belonged to the past and the youngsters of today would never understand. If you are a millennial, here are some things you have probably never seen or used.

Some young people may have had the chance to interact with the small floppy disks. But many youths of today likely would not have come across the 8-inch version which was the first commercially available rendition of the floppy disk. Something else that the older crowd would remember is the everyday usage of answering machines. Before there was voicemail, people used to leave messages on these machines linked to one's landline. Recipients could hear the caller's message as they were saying it or catch up on messages they missed.

In this quiz, tell us which of these nostalgic things you have done. If you've done at least 10 out of the following 15 things, you're probably old (at heart or otherwise).

    I got: Youโ€™re Not Old!
    You havenโ€™t done enough things to be considered old. Youโ€™re still pretty young!

    I can remember doing only maybe 5 of them, namely using a payphone on the street to make a call. taking pictures with a camera that used film, consulting the Yellow Pages, adjusting the โ€œrabbit earsโ€ atop a TV, and looking up movie or TV show times in a newspaper. Other things like pagers or game consoles were way after my time. Thanks for your appraisal, but I am indeed old (79).

    You’ve done so many things and accumulated so many life experiences that you’re definitely considered old… in a general sense. You can always be young at heart!

    Oh, I’m old all right. It’s just that I’m so old that I had grown up and left the U.S. before things like pagers, VHS, and consoles had been developed. Hey, I can remember when making a call from a payphone on the street in Washington, DC, cost a nickel.
