I’ve done everything, but I don’t think I’m “Old” – just born at the right time
Thanks, Michelle!

I did not have a MySpace account. Everything else checked off. Or ‘chequed’ off – as it’s spelled above.
Same with me
Same here, KrisgOLD. All but that one.
Me too! And I still listen to CD’s and also have a VCR with some garage sale tapes i still haven’t watched.
No My Space account or a Walkman but a transistor radio instead. Still have a VCR with some garage sale tapes i still haven’t got around to watching yet. Was even brought up in the suburbs in a house that had a coal furnace until 1960. With a separate wood or coal burning system for hot water
All of the above — but I’m only as old as I feel, so…
About 150 today.
I’m “shoveled a path to the outhouse, primed the pump, took frozen bedsheets off the line, washed and wrung diapers out by hand and cut ice for the ice box” old. Plus everything on the list except for the MySpace one.
Reminds me of a song.
a country song at that
I never had an AOL account. We couldn’t get that in the sticks. We had a dial up so slow photos took forever to send, uphill in the snow.
I’m 79 and scored 16. Boombox doesn’t count because it was endemic on the street
I had a knock-off Walkman, I do not nor did not have a MySpace account, and no AOL e-mail–but still use my Hotmail account.
Everything else I have done. Or still do.
I’ve done all of these things except four. I still do quite a few of them.
20 out of 22. But I am not old, because I know how to use my grandchildren and great-granddaughter. You hug and play with them as much as possible, draining some of their youth for yourself.. It is a way of ‘living forever with the ‘circle of life.
When you have children, they drain your energy, and when they have children they are drained by them. By interacting with the grandchildren, you can take back some of that energy drained from you, in the first place, thus completing the ‘Circle of Life.’
At least we actually OWNED the music on CD, tape, 8-track, 45, and LP-33. Not to mention actually owning the typewriter and software programs with a single purchase price. None of these membership or subscription fees.
Curses to Apple and Microsoft and the rest of you money grubbers (and all those young ‘uns who think subscriptions for everything is not extortion).

Everything but MySpace.
I have a perfect score. Sad but true.
Never order from Columbia House.
