2. Use a phone book to find a company to do work around your house Generation Z may not even know what “Yellow Pages” refers to. They may not have ever seen a phone book.

Haven't used one in years. When I get one at the house, it's tossed.

3. Sell your car with a cardboard sign stuck on the windshield...

I still see this from time to time...

4. Figure out math in your head

All the time, daily pretty much.

5. Call and ask a family member, “Where are you?”

Still do this?

6. Tell time by hands on a clock

With the exception of one alarm clock, all of the clocks in my house are analog...and most are actually mechanical as well. I still wear mechanical, analog wristwatches as well

7. Make photo albums

Nope

8. Have a CD or record collection

We have a lot of CD's

9. Make mixtapes

I have flash drives, same thing sort of...

10. Call a theater to get movie times

Rarely go to the movies

11. Record your favorite programs on tape All year, we’d wait for “It’s a Wonderful Life” or “The Wizard of Oz” to pop up on TV. When they did, we’d push a VHS tape into the machine and wait until the proper moment to press “record.”

No Answer


12. Watch shows when they are broadcast live In the same vein, we rarely have to sit in front of the television, eagerly waiting for a “major network event.” Services like Hulu and YouTube convert a huge amount of national television into a digital format, and local news stations log most of their important segments onto their websites.

I stream a lot of stuff these days...

13. Run to the store for a last-minute gift Curses!

No

14. Cut things out of the newspaper

No

15. Send a handwritten letter

Never!

16. Looking up the spelling of words in the dictionary

Do it all the time...

17. Use a phone booth to make a call

There are very few working phone booths these days...Kind of sad in a way

18. Carry cash
I carry cash 99% of the time. I prefer living analog. It's just my style.

19. Use a travel agent

My wife does.

20. Getting your old checks back from the bank every month

There is a scan of my processed checks on the bank website, if I need to print it for some reason, I do..

There ya go...
