I’m new to Lemmy but I think I sent you a message lol

Oh boy, how long until things start making me feel old?? I’m still waiting for that day to come!

Oh I know, I just thought it was funny that the idea of someone not having had a landline was weird to me, until I realized that most people nowadays don’t have them! We just had one of those “plug directly into the phone line, no electricity needed” phones until 2006ish because my mom was paranoid about caller ID for the longest time, so I get it :)

I have a can opener that just breaks the factory seal instead of actually cutting the metal, and I put it on the side of the can. I wonder if these mixups are just from everyone using different kinds of can openers without realizing it lol

Haha this is kinda hilarious. I’m in my late 20s and, reading your comment, I’m like “oh man I can’t imagine skipping over landlines and going straight to cell phones, is that really a thing?” And then I realized that, yeah, a majority of the people younger than me probably did exactly that. But I also still consider the Wii a “new” game console, so I might just be frozen in time or something…

When I get a second phone call and answer it, it puts my current phone call on hold. It then has an option on the screen to switch between calls, along with a button that I think merges the calls? Never tried that one. When I hang up on the second call, it switches me back to the first call automatically. I’ve never heard it called “call waiting” before so I’m not sure if this is what you’re referring to or not, though…

Looking at your online history (nanobots in COVID shots? really?) I’m gonna go ahead and let you win this one, you clearly need to feel special much more than any of us do. So, good job! Your opinion is definitely important enough to make people rethink their priorities! Society would be in shambles without you and your guidance!

I don’t listen to music in my car or at work, music is more of an active thing for me. I want to pay attention to it and sing along! If I’m focusing on something else, like driving, I just tune out the music anyways. Sometimes I’ll get stoned and play the OoT soundtrack in the background while I draw, but that’s about it. I don’t even think I own headphones, unless I have some packed away with my old iPod nano. It’s pretty cool how we all experience the same world in such different ways, isn’t it?

My car is almost old enough to drink, and my phone’s a $300 sunbeam phone which feels expensive to me (although I know that’s “cheap” compared to the new iPhones and whatnot)

Could easily afford a new car and a thousand dollar phone, but… why would I, when what I have works perfectly fine?

FYI, might get better answers if you don’t ask questions with an obvious goal in mind. Are you trying to learn about others situations or are you trying to shit on people for their choices?
