      I’ve never used a typewriter. I’ve also never been to blockbuster, but I assume this is just American for “rented a film from a physical store”.

        Given how obsolete videos are, I’d imagine all of the stores have gone too.

        We had blockbuster in the UK, and we had boomboxes. No one I knew took them outdoors though.

      Yeah IDK about this one.

      I def had a boom box. It def used batteries. I’m certain I listened to it outside but I just can’t remember specifically doing that.

      Also encyclopaedias. I’m certain that we had one of those single volume ones at least.
