For example, mine is that I love watching Antiques Roadshow.
Involuntary groans whenever I sit down or stand up.
I like to go to bed at 9/10 and wake up at 4/6
My old person trait is being 72.
You! The only person on Lemmy older than me!
When out eating and drinking, my preference is to go and order food and drink at the counter/bar, rather than install some app or give a website all my personal information before I can order.
What? This is a thing at restaurants now?
I don’t have android or iOS because they are shit
Nokia 3310, right? /s
CatB40 and Pinephone
I avoid going out during busy times - e.g., rush hour, school zones, restaurants on a Friday or Saturday night.
I love an early supper.
&
I putter in the garden.
I have a drawer in the garage titled “uncle solutions”, it has a collection of rusted wire, bits of electric wire and similar shit for “quick fixes”. I also just bought me and my SO nordic walking sticks, we still need to get matching trekking suits. Oh and I dream about retiring to a remote cottage and growing my own veggies like proper siberian babushka.
I primarily write in cursive.
Ugh, I feel this one. I had only written in cursive for something like twenty years, and then I got a job where I needed to write in print for some legal reasons. It was super bad, yo.
My age
I like watching old British sitcoms.
Some would also say that enjoying a good traditional Anglican liturgy is another one
Waiting for God is so damn good.
I refuse to scan a qr code for a menu. Give me a damn piece of paper
This irritates the hell out of me, especially after those malicious link hijacks in the news recently. I’d accept a url before a qr code.
I’m always up to date on the grocery store sales in my area and when there’s something especially good on sale I will show up at the store when it opens at 7:30.
“Good morning, sir! We open at 8am.”
I genuinely hate new things and most change at this point.
I don’t think it’s me getting old. I think I was raised differently than most of my peers and exposed to how previous generations actually fought for their rights instead of rolling over and taking it up the ass.
Most of my peers are dumb as shit and have no concept of how much businessmen are taking advantage of them. If someone tells them to buy something, they’ll buy it.
I am incredibly difficult to buy gifts for because I have everything I want, which is not much at all.
