Well, you're not wrong there. That still happens, but it happens 140 characters at a time now, so now arguments are not only pedantic but oversimplified and meaningless. I actually miss the days of 10 paragraph long blog posts arguing over meaningless minutiae. It was funny and sometimes informative.

He's also not wrong though. Nobody under 40 calls it a flat screen TV.

I miss it too, kinda. The frequency at which it occurred sometimes became tiresome.

But in any case, I am close to that age cutoff and have used more CRTs than LCDs in my life; so I think I have earned the right to call it a "flat screen".
