Guy at the hardware store counter said you can't teach an old dog new tricks about wiring, and I stood there thinking about my dad's fuse box
He told me that while I was buying a $4 pack of wire nuts, like it was just a fact of life that nobody over 50 could figure out a breaker panel. That take falls apart the second you remember my dad relabeled every circuit in his 1958 house with masking tape and a Sharpie, and he did it at 63. What's the oldest person you've seen pick up a new skill fast?
