    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).

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

      I have them all, except 5 and 12. Not from the States, so no aol. And cheques were fazed(?) out really early here, so have never seen one in use. The crossover breed of XMillenial here.

    AOL is very American, could’ve written dialup. Check books were also gone here long before they were in the US.

      According to that, I should be 53.

      That’s over a decade older than I am right now.

      18/20 because waterbeds weren’t a common thing here and I already had internet access and a mail address before AOL was a thing. Whoever made that list should have added usenet.
