"You're definitely over 40.You weren't stumped by ANY of these, were you? In fact, you probably grew up around most of these things. You really showed those dang millennials, didn't ya? Bless ya."
I'm 36 years old (a millennial). The author of that quiz doesn't know what a millennial is.

I just turned 30 in October. The toaster and the K-Mart light-looking deal got me.

Those old remotes were something, you could jingle a keychain and drive the TV nuts.
Never used a penny with a record player, so wasn't sure about that one.
Missed both of these. I was the remote for the TV and never heard of using a penny on the record player.

30 for 30
Pretty easy... Stop in a convenient store a while back looking for a finger nail clipper. Asked the young girl behind the counter if they had a pair. She came out and showed me where they were and in the process asked what's this, pointing at a bottle/ can opener. I explained back it the day soda came in cans and you used the pointy part the pierce two wholes so you could drink it and the other end was a bottle opener... Oh, to be young again... Dan

29 of 30 but I also missed the penny question. We never had a record player when I was growing up.

I suspect that if the test was given without the multiple choices and you had to answer from the picture only even the olds would have missed several of these.
