My grandfather said, "Your generation relies too much on technology." So I said, "No, your generation relies too much on technology!" Then I unplugged the life support
That's so crude. Were you making jokes at the expense of elders?
No, I didn't say anything about being old. I was telling you that my grandpa said to me that younger people are lazy and boring.
Generational differences are natural and can be quite frustrating. It's perfectly fine that you value technology in ways that your grandfather does not. Perhaps share with him what things interest you and he can begin to be a bit more open-minded.
"I agree but don't relate that I am boring.
That's great then you're trying to respect your elders a little more now. They've been through so much, and both of you have the right to use lots of technology how you see fit. When you're older, you might find yourself bantering about different things in the same way!
