It took a recent NY Times article to force me to admit something. Two things actually.

First, texting is annoying. Like really annoying. I hate it.

This leads into the second thing which is that I’m officially old and Can’t Relate.

An excerpt:

“E-mail has never really been a fun thing to use,” said Ms. Judge, 19. “It’s always like, ‘This is something you have to do.’ School is a boring thing. E-mail is a boring thing. It goes together.”

That is a lie. Email has always been fun to use such as when, at age 23, I thought it was fine to email my college friends about my dating exploits using my work email address.

Incidentally, tomorrow is my birthday. I’m probably older than you. Be grateful.

Proof that I’m old: birthday pic taken with Polaroid camera sans irony.
