Do you remember the good old days when people would ring you from a landline and keep rinning till you answered it?

Not like today. 4 rings and hang up and then when you dial back they abuse you for ignoring their call..

Yes and it was a way for burglars to figure out if you were home, they'd call your number and let it ring and then drive over to your home and if they heard the phone still ringing then they'd break in. It was happening in the rural area where I used to live about 45 years ago.

That sounds awful. I think mine are even more insidious. Faking indian accents and trying to sell life insurance @cherokeepatti

Not that I'm lazy ;) but I'm thankful we'd don't have a landline any more - I love being able to ignore calls while I'm holding my phone
