Neil Flynn Quotes

I'm really not techno-savvy - that's just not my personality.

I'm not really gadget oriented. I'm not into technology or computers. I'm not good at interfacing with that sort of gear.

I'm a complete technophobe. I can't even email.

I can't stand cell phones and I don't know one single thing about the computer. I have a friend come that lives in my building to check if I have emails. I don't even know what to google.

I'm one of those weird people who doesn't even own a computer.

I don't ever go on the Internet. I don't even know how it works.

When I tell people I don't own a mobile phone and wouldn't know how to text, they react as though I have just confessed that I can't read.

I struggle with technology. I think it doesn't like me because I think it knows I don't like it.

I'm actually a bit of a technophobe, which surprises people. I like to stay unplugged as much as possible.

What a lot of people don't realise about me is that I have no idea what's going on in the media. I don't pay any attention to it, as I consider it mind pollution. The last time I touched a computer was in 2001, and my phone is too old to use the Internet. I just don't enter into it at all on any level.

I built a lot of stuff as a kid. But I was not interested in tech, I thought it wasn't really for me.

I definitely have a Luddite's approach to what's going on. I find that as I get older, I get stupider.

We all know Sen. Feinstein is out of touch, but just to make it worse, by not embracing today's technology, she isn't even connected. Out of touch and disconnected.

Things go wrong for me all the time with technology. I'm not familiar enough with it, and I'm too old-school a brain to be able to figure it out. I'm dumb. Anything that I have to attack with my thumbs, for any period of time, makes me feel stupid. So, I try to avoid it, as much as possible, to protect my thumbs.

You know, I'm really bad on the computer. I'm really lame, man. I read and hang out with my kids. I've turned into a five year old.

At the risk of being a fuddy-duddy I don't have a computer; I don't have e-mail; and I really don't need something in my house that I would be sitting in front of for hours.

I've never had Internet access. Actually, I have looked at things on other people's computers as a bystander. A few times in my life I've opened email accounts, twice actually, but it's something I don't want in my life right now.

I'm not involved on any social media; it's really not my style.

To use a word I never thought I'd apply to myself, I've sort of become a Luddite with regard to information. Where everyone else is getting their Twitter feeds from 'The New York Times' and their 'Huffington Post' emails, I live in a little bit of a bubble.

I'm not on Twitter or Facebook and don't even use email. I don't trust computers: one day they'll all break down, and everyone will be knackered.

I don't watch TV, I don't spend time on the Internet, and I don't party much. I don't text very much, either.

I'm not a man deeply interested in technology. It eludes me.

I'm not on Twitter or Facebook. I've never been interested in being on any of them. I don't know why I'm not. I just don't have that need. I feel like I'm one of the only people I know who doesn't do it.

I've never sent an email in my life. My kids laugh. I often hand the phone to them and say, 'Can you text this message to somebody.' I don't even have a computer on my desk.

Nobody ever texts me, because they know what I'm like. I'm a constant frustration to my children because I never switch my mobile phone on. I only use it when I need to make a call or when I'm stuck somewhere or lost, then I switch it off again. I've never texted anyone in my life, and I'm not sure I even know how to.
