Just to get everyone on the same page here are the dictionary definitions:
Curmudgeon – crusty, ill-tempered, and usually old man ( although I would argue curmudgeonry knows no age or gender barriers)
Luddite – (derogatory) a person opposed to new technology or ways of working.
While you can certainly be one without being the other, it is not uncommon to see them packaged together.
All which got me wondering, what would you call such a person? My initial response was Curd-lite, but that is very close to that awful, but most popular of beers, Bud Lite. I did like the fact that a curd is formed from the souring of milk. I also thought of Crud-lite, but that did not ring in my ears.
Then I thought of Ludgeon or Ludgeonite, either of which are sonorous and roll off the tongue nicely.
There are any number of possible combinations then I realized that there is one existing – old fogey.
And so it goes.
