I think now a days it’s only a thing with older people. I was at Meijer the other day walking toward the self checkout and I walked past an elderly woman writing a check as she was waiting in a cashiered line.
Yeah but that lady would have been told “Nope, come back with cash, credit or debit” over here. Heck, I had cashier jobs in the early 2000s and we didn’t accept checks!
Two of my local utilities ONLY accept paper checks via US mail.
I thought I was going to have to order a god damn check book just for these dinosaurs until I found out my bank had a paper check option for automated bill pay.
Man, the USA truly is stuck in 1996…

Rural US is a trip.
The USA is stuck in 96 because an extreme minority of people still use checks? lol what?
You know what you’re right. I was using Apple Pay back in 96 to pay for groceries.
