But funniest things I have seen is where people dependent on tech, lack general awareness skills.
There was a girl dropped off to meet a friend in our suburb, the friend was outside but a different area less than 100 feet away. They had their heads down texting each other what looked like “where you at?” “I’m over here” type Convo, and could have been using a location type app.
They wandered around, crossing the street, and walking up and down missing each other, until they eventually were heading directly toward each other and would have collided. They could have saved a few minutes by just looking up and doing a head swivel.
I also saw the same with a Skip-the-Dishes guy on foot following his app to deliver the bag of food, he was half a house off location and going up on the wrong porch, and the lady is out on her porch saying that’s mine, your are delivering over here. He was adimant he had to drop it per the app location, and went off the other way.
So I said dude forget the GPS location , what is the house number, he gave me the number, and I said that’s that house with the lady on the porch, see the numbers on the post over her porch. Then a light bulb went off for him.
But as a balanced bash against boomer generation, my mom thinks WiFi comes through the AC cord to her laptop, and will not accept my explanation of WiFi
Its a stereotype like any other joke.
