The incoming recruits of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are all Gen Z. Let's see if they can name some items from the 1990s, and see how old it makes you feel. (via Digg)when I saw the items they were identifying, it hit me like stray gunfire. 😠pic.twitter.com/jtssUtCHQR

I have some floppies and tapes in a box around here somewhere ... I bet my 17-year-old son would get a kick out of seeing them. He may have never actually seen or held a floppy disk before.
What they identified as a 'floppy disk' was actually what was known as a 'diskette', if you want to be specific. The original, true floppy disks were introduced in 1971 and were almost eight inches in diameter (by 1976 they'd been reduced in size to 5¼-inch diameter) and were encased in a semi-flexible plastic protective sheath, not a rigid, hard-plastic case, and held a whopping (for that time) 200K of data.
