old people v. the Internet
Just had an elderly library patron come up complaining that he couldn’t find the information he was looking for and asking if something was wrong with the machine. I went to the computer he was using and saw that the Wikipedia article he was looking at was only a couple sentences long. He thought something might be wrong and asked if he should try another computer.
No sir, switching computers won’t make this Wikipedia article any longer. -

It’s what happens next that, to me, is unforgivable. It’s when your eyes light up ever so slightly, that bemused, faraway look coalesces, and you turn to me and say:
“How ‘bout that Dewey Decimal System?”
At that moment, you look so proud of yourself. You believe you have found a clever way out of cocktail party purgatory. You look almost hopeful, as if the conversation has been saved. But let me explain to your smug visage what has just happened: you have ruined it for everyone.
This entire piece is wonderful and this quote in particular is the best.

Call Me, Ishmael by Jason St. Peter is today’s new tee! That’s a whale of a phone. (zing!)
