What's your 'old person' trait?
-
For example, mine is that I love watching Antiques Roadshow.
My biggest decision of the day is usually whether I get to have alcohol or pain meds that day. Pain meds usually win.

wrote last edited by [email protected]I most likely haven't seen over 1 hour of TikTok IN MY LIFETIME. And believe me, this is certainly not common in my age range.
I would have everything backed up in USB pens if I could, and I despise anything that markets as “AI” — I am aware it reduces critical thinking, something which I somewhat lack. I do not listen to music from nowadays (2020s on), only 1960s to mid-2010s music.Furthermore, I do watch some old shows, e.g., Perry Mason.

I've started noticing birds, and worse, I've started recognizing them.

Most of my friends don’t even have my phone number, let alone a messaging service. We do postal mail or just go to each other’s houses. I mail out about twenty letters a week and get that much back, on nice stationery.
It’s good to feel loved.
Last time I ever wrote letters was while I was in the service. Kept every single letter.

Dude or dudess, if true, f*cking awesome. And i envy you
There is absolutely nothing stopping you from doing the same thing.
Make a friend’s day, give them mail that’s not bills or ads or packages.

Postage stamps, in this economy?
Joke aside I think that's pretty cool.
Postage is expensive, but I look forward to checking my mail. Mixed in with the ads is real human sentiment!

Paper mail is so underrated.
I need to get a wax sealing kit.

If you haven't tried Cornell's "Merlin" app, I highly recommend it.
Bird watching is peaceful. I love it.

The noises I make when I sit down and stand up lol

If you can stick a magnet to your current cookware, no.
Mine is all cast iron so I'm good, but aluminum or copper pans won't work.

I always get printed boarding passes for domestic flights.

I volunteered over the summer to track birds at a plot of local conservation land. Went out there at the crack of dawn with binoculars and everything. That's when I knew I was really getting old.

Well I have cast iron, stainless, and glass, so...

I cannot correctly say my kids' names when I'm stressed out in a hurry. I just end up saying both of their names. Eventually I will be right.

Blood pressure meds have relieved me of that choice.

And a fountain pen. Or six.

Complaining most music sucks and sounds the same nowadays. The 90s had the best music.
70s. Maybe some 80s, too.

Suspenders for my pants. They are really life-changing. The usual rotund American male over-60 physique leaves no purchase to hold up pants without constant attention.

Tools and furniture are exciting!
