My old person trait is that I think 'ghosting' is completely unacceptable and you owe the other person a face-to-face conversation.

Taking notes with a pencil. Since everyone likes to type their notes. I don’t.

My trait is I think cars are too digital and should be analogue. Giant touch panels are distracting and have generally bad UI design. You can control an A/C with 3 dials, 4 if you have zones and don’t need to look down at all. Pinnacle of engineering.

I will never own a car that has features behind a paywall or that I can’t directly control. Computer cars are fine as long as I have root.

My old person trait is that I exclusively wear bathrobes unless I begrudgingly leave the house.

My old person trait is that no one is allowed to be mad at me for not answering a random phone call. Sometimes it's ok to leave your phone in the other room while watching a movie, or (gasp!) At home while you're out gardening.

Sadly "ghosting" is the norm where I'm from. Sadly.

Even if vinyl is a big hit these days it's still my old guy trait. I just bought new high tech dampener feet for my turn table.
