My old person trait is a belief that anyone that works full time should be able to aspire to own their own home, support their wife and kids and still have a little left over to save at the end of the month.

Edit: It kind of sucks that I wrote a comment about making work pay like it used to and people are arguing about whether I'm a mysoganist that wants women back in the kitchen. (I'm not, I'm happy for women to work as much as they want too, it'd just be nice for double income homes to be doing it out of choice and thriving because of it, rather than having to do it out of necessity.)

Cars should have buttons and knobs. Not complicated menus and touchscreens. That’s not a “I don’t like change” thing, it’s a safety thing.

Hell yes I should own it if I pay for it.

Event tickets shouldn’t cost a month’s pay or more, fuck middleman businesses that do nothing except price gouge you as a “service.”

Agree completely with the first 3, but my young person/introvert trait is that I think I should be able to get anything, including paying my bills, to work without having to talk to someone on the phone like I'm my boomer dad.

My old person trait is that UI shouldn't change unexpectedly when you are trying to click or touch something.

My old person trait is a bad back

None of these are actually old person traits. These are just things that should be happening automatically.

my old person trait is wanting to overthrow capitalism and give everyone basic necessities

my old person trait is that I think I should be able to afford college, a car, and a home, on a part time job, like our grandparents could.

Don't fall for framing of these type of things as a flaw in you. None of these are unreasonable ends for the young or the old. This is not about young/old, it's about wealthy/not wealthy - the greedy fucks making these decisions are trying to make you casually take a side in a generational conflict so that you turn your pitchforks away from them.

My old person trait is that i keep butterscotch in my pockets in case grandchildren stop by.

I don't have any old person traits! Now get off my lawn, damn kids!

My old person trait is not liking it when someone doesn’t take out their wireless earplugs when I talk to them.

My old person trait is wishing my neighbors would stay out of my yard and stop breaking noise ordinance.

These aren't "old person traits", these are you and I being socialized into believing that we don't deserve the basic functionality of products and services (because we need to squeeze out slight additional profit margin for the capitalists running/ruining these things).

My old person trait is that I think people should understand the technology they use in order to be allowed to use it

The last one can be accomplished by simply not paying the bill. They'll even call you!

I am waiting for the sweet release of death

Don't phrase reasonable expectations as an old person trait, or you're essentially saying it's hip to get bent over for the profit of others.

My old person trait is that I believe fire is made out of magic and it scares me.
