👻I managed 20/20 and my bones are dust.

@Shards
20/20 here but I’m older than God.

and 10/20 even today.

I must admit when I read "used a floppy disc" that was not the floppy disc I was picturing.

@Shards 20/20 but also I am a shambling corpse.

@Shards I have done every one of those, except for numbers 8 and 12

@Shards I *bought* an encyclopedia, but I didn't *own* one. In middle school, I borrowed one volume from the library and it somehow never made it back so I was charged for the entire set. I ended up working at the library for two summers to pay it off. That's the only one I'm technically missing unless you count Encarta.

@Shards nostalgia bait. Anyone over the age of 45, maybe 50, will have all of them.

@Shards @drwho I instantly turned to dust when i checked the 20th off...

@Shards This is literally just, ”were you born before 1990, and aren’t yet dead?”

I’ve done all of this, and it wasn’t particularly difficult.

@Shards @deepmud This is pretty much the childhood world of Gen X.

I hit 19 of 20, as we were not wealthy enough for an encyclopedia.

And I never believed in sending postcards.

I'll count myself at 19.5, for having received postcards from peers.

[drwho@masto.hackers.town]

@kusuriya @Shards I had to see if my landlord had deposited the rent check for this month after that.

(He had.)

@Shards I only managed to get 18 because I never bothered with a Walkman and we didn't have a Blockbuster over here. I still actually do some of these (e.g. CDs, paper maps, own a dictionary, an encyclopaedia and a current telephone directory).

[victorvonvortex@mastodon.social]

@Shards

People actually owned encyclopedias? I thought that's why you went to the library.

[halfdan@mastodon.online]

@Shards, is it just me or does something seem off about this image? It started with me noticing the weird capitalization of the heading, but then the more I zoomed in and looked at the individual drawings, the more icky it made me feel (for the lack of a better word).

[deepmud@mas.to]

@markc568 oops, I used an encyclopedia, but we didn't have one...so I lied. Lol
