I hate touchscreens: and other old-fogy-retro opinions, aversions, and prejudices. What's yours?

My list is pretty long. Most of it involves technology of one sort or another, from car dashboards that look like airplane cockpits to stoves with a “chicken nuggets” setting (I will never, ever buy one).

But there’s plenty of room for more, and much of the rest of it has to do with the replacement of craftsmanship by mass production.

Older isn’t necessarily better—of course not; but damn.

What kneejerk retro attitudes burst out of you when your button gets pushed?
