Heroically Out of Touch

I impressed myself with how out of touch with modern culture I am yesterday. I was having a chat with quite a respectable lady - it went something like this:
Me: So, what are you up to for New Year's?
Them: Going to a party in our village.
Me: Will that be a raucous one?
Them: Yeah, probably. There'll probably be a wee tournament.
Me: "A wee tournament"? That's more than raucous, that's off-the-chain mental.

And then it sinks in and I do some blushing.

Me (again): You meant Nintendo Wii, didn't you?

Happy New Year people, see you on the other side.
