social curmudgeon

A person, usually of an older generation, who complains on Facebook and through comments on blogs, about the youth of today being lazy and reliant on technology. This person may also make comments about past difficulties and how "easy" younger people have it.

In other words, someone who complains about youth and technology while using the same technology to beleaguer their intended target.

lovable curmudgeon

An often disagreeable young man with a serious disposition. Does not tell nor receive jokes well. However, he is kind and generally likeable. One might say his name is Andrew
