A bit of this and a bit of that

Do you consider yourself traditional or modern? Well, the answer I suspect for most of us is that we’re a mixture of both. For example, I’m well into my gadgets, however would probably shy away from some of the trends I’ve noticed people go for (just watch Little Britain). I suppose the older you get, the more set you get in your ways, but I like to think I’m pretty open minded. For example, for me mens wedding bands should always be gold, no silver, or stones in there, just a plain gold band. Or for example, I’ll always like cheese on my pasta, regardless of what some famous chef might say. Some things I like modern though, give me digital signage over traditional signs any day (though I do like a wooden sign)
Here’s a great quiz about modern manners. I scored 6 on 10. How high do you score?

It’s not being modern or old school any more, it’s either being a new up-taker or being classically grounded! That’s my excuse that gets more vehement as I get older and I’m sticking by it!
According to the answers, I’m not allowed to ask people to stop smoking in my own home. If thats the case I’d rather be rude.
