hearing that kids use a flat palm instead of the pinky and thumb to mimic being on the phone has aged me 70 years
@bees this post made me instantly die of old age
@bees ah alright, I'm ok with climate change now. let the seas take me.
@bees miming *holding* the thing works either way and is thus best option, i'll die on this hill
@bees i would join the chorus of people who have also died of old age, but i am currently a pile of dust. i became so old that all of me went straight to dust, no bones laying around or anything. pile of dust.
@wigglytuffitout @bees no bones?? dang
@bees I think I'm too old to be in a retirement home now
@bees @eldrichtTerror it’s true and it’s depressing
@bees Thus, "talk to the hand" finally makes sense.
@bees excuse me they do W H A T
@bees hold up, who does that??
@bees youre joking. you have to be fucking with me
@seventy I wish I was but apparently it's a thing
@bees that's so cursed. that's so cursed and i hate it.
@bees confirmed this today with the office teens, they now have to sweep up the dust that once was my body before Herc eats me
@bees that is terrifying
@bees sounds fake, when has anyone under 30 used a phone to speak
@bees I just realized that they probably don’t put their palm to their ear, they put it in front of their face and mimic texting/scrolling with their opposite hand bc zoomers don’t make calls.
@bees Just wait til you consider how they angrily hang up the phone =P
@bees Oh no I had to stop and think about how that worked.
