Maybe they should have included emojis so you could understand it better.

The Youngest Millennials are prob like 23 and the oldest are nearing 40. I'd say most have used all those.

A solid understanding that there are only 2 genders.

Black and White tv
Metal fans with very little guarding
5 foot long wooden stereo cabinet with 8 track and record player
TV in a wooden box and the channels go up to 13. After so many years, they came up with a spin knob that went on top of the tv and it went up to 26
Rotary phone
I was born in ‘88, which means I’m 31 and a millennial.

I didn’t have a TV in my room as a kid, but my brother had a black and white tv in his.

We had several metal fans

Never had an 8 track but we had a record player and we used it.

We had a TV in the wooden box with the speakers at the bottom.

We didn’t have a rotary phone, but my grandparents did and I spent a lot of time at their house, so I’m familiar with it.



You act like millennials are 15 years old.

You do realize the oldest millennials are 40, right?

There were more than 13 channels available dickcheese.. That was the VHF knob. The UHF went from 14 to the 60's. The problem was, if you didn't life near huge tv markets, there was nothing on those channels.

a pager (getting one as a teen was a rite of passage)
a phone that attached to the wall
dial up where you had to disconnect to make a phone call
car windows that roll down by hand
talking to your crush on AOL chat
sitting in the front seat at 4 years old because car seats were for literal babies
a camera not attached to a cell phone
a cell phone that only made calls and didn't have caller id
a walk man and a disc man

Technically I'm a millennial, but it's for the reasons above that I do not identify as such.
