The reason you didn’t get 20.

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 19 points 3 weeks ago

20 is a typo, it's actually phone bō and it's the art of fighting with a phone staff.

[–] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 17 points 3 weeks ago (7 children)

So everyone over 35 or so?

[–] chocrates@piefed.world 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (3 children)

I'm 37 and only about 16 points.
I didn't ever use a typewriter afaik, nor a rotary phone.

I was in the era of aol addresses but my first email was when I got into the Gmail beta 😎

Sadly I need to extricate myself from Gmail

Mixed Tape

Does this mean a mix tape or is that something else? 🤨

Also: I've used a rotary phone, but only because I had bought a novelty modern phone that used a rotary dialer in the 90s.

I got 19 or 20, depending on the answer to my question about the "mixed tape" thing.

I am assuming Phone Bo is Phone book.

[–] chocrates@piefed.world 5 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

The meme creator got lazy and just didn't do the last two letters?

19 out of 20. Unless just testing a waterbed counts....

[–] Mickey7@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Yeah it counts. I've "tried" them but never owned them. So that counts

20/20 and I’ll add Atari, illegal cable hookup, and limewire.

[–] AlphaOmega@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Add Napster, ICQ, and AOL chatrooms ... A/S/L?

[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 6 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I'll add Saturday morning cartoons, planning your week around when shows came on TV, and renting movies from a grocery store/pharmacy.

Terrible distribution of options. A good list would have a series of technologies and tools that became obsolete at different times. Almost all of these became obsolete with the rise of broadband internet in the early 2000's, while a handful were earlier (rotary phones) or later (paper maps, paper checks).

I got all 20, but I never used vinyl records until just a few years ago

[–] Corporal_Punishment@feddit.uk 6 points 3 weeks ago

19, but only because waterbeds were never really a thing in the UK

[–] UNY0N@lemmy.wtf 6 points 3 weeks ago

I'm assuming that "phone bo" means phone book? If that's true then I'm at 20/20.

I plan to live forever. So far, so good.

[–] VitoRobles@lemmy.today 9 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Yeah, in don't think many of us touched a Phone Bo. They're impossible to find after we started making bo staffs out of better material like wood.

Did you really need to use ai to make a text based meme? I completely lost hope in humanity after seeing this

[–] Jeeve65@ttrpg.network 5 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

You don't scare me.
AOL never was available in my country. Check books? I've never even seen someone actually using one, I think.

I will never get to 20, yay!

Lol #9 is mix tape 🤣😂

[–] Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

Half of these are still in use simply because some people think they're cool, or when someone prefers to not have to rely on technology (e.g. paper maps don't run out of electricity while you're on a long hike).

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

I’ve used everything on this list, I win!

[–] spacemanspiffy@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Everything but 5 and 13. Guess I'll go die, then.

[–] jdnewmil@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I never had my own AOL email account but I did throw away AOL signup disks and I sent email to AOL accounts... so I guess 20/20 assuming "phone bo" is a phone book.

As for not being long for this world... there are a lot of ways to go that don't link with being old, so I guess that checks out anyway.

20/20, waterbeds were awesome.

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (3 children)

Water beds are making a comeback. This coming year, I swear!

20/20, y’all invited the my funeral. Apparently any day now
