The Wonders of Technology
Is it just me or are any of you bricking it at the thought of getting old and not having a clue how technology works?

I ask because it seems that most people who are over say 50.... have absolutly no idea how to operate current technology.

My dear old mother for instance is always asking me how to program her VCR (i know i did say current technology), retune her freeview box and she still has no idea how to send a txt message.

My boss (a woman in her late 50's) still cannot fathem how to add an attachment to an email (ffs) despite being shown several times a week for as long as i can remember.

In 30 years or so am I going to be like that? bothering the young 'uns to show me how to work things?

Dear God I hope not!

» Irrational Hatred

Irrational Hatred of words!
This doesn't seem to have been covered yet!

I have no idea why (I guess that's what makes it irrational!) however the word "elbow" really annoys me! Just say it to yourself a few times. Elbow Elbow Elbow Elbow Elbow Elbow Elbow Elbow Elbow Elbow. Do you see what I mean or is this just me?

Another word is genitles, it just sounds.... wrong.

I quietly seethe to myself whenever i hear those words, I quickly calm down after realising there are others more worthy of hatred.... Chris Moyles anyone?
