You Can’t Teach an Old Dog New Tricks

Is it true that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks? You might not think of yourself as ‘old’, but the truth is it’s no fun feeling left behind by the modern world. Take comfort: you are not alone, as this hilarious book affirms.
From chatbots to the metaverse, cold callers to charity chuggers, there seem to be so many more confusing terms and frustrations now. You can’t buy a straight coffee anymore; and buying ‘a ticket’ for anything involves a degree in computer science and a QR code (whatever that is) — it’s no wonder we yearn for simpler times.
So, lay down your laptop, kiss your mouse adieu and enjoy the funnier side of life with this hilarious — but at times horribly accurate — book, which brings together a whole host of anecdotes, quotes, quips and true stories about the vagaries of life in the modern world.

    Maybe someone laughs at the fact that your solution to any problem with your new smartphone is to randomly stab at buttons and icons until you inadvertently lock it and need to find a young person to fix it for you.

    This somehow opened my eyes to some problems associated with aging. The constant need and effort it takes to ‘love with the times’ after all the saying goes, “You live in Rome, act like the Romans”. It must be harder for adults to learn things that I know (knowledge I got only by being born after them and having access to social media)
