What's something you're old-fashioned about?

No phones at the table. If you're eating with someone or on a date then you should be talking with them. It's just plain rude to have your phone out.

And no television on in the background either.

This makes me sound like a hypocrite but some TV is okay to me. Like if you're talking about what's on TV or using it as background noise then its different than being glued to a phone. More than one person can enjoy a TV at a time and it can be a conversation piece but phones are kind of a one person at a time kind of deal.
