I envy those of an older generation...

Ya'll had an actual phone to slam upon its receiver. Smashing my my thumb on " end call" is just not dramatic enough.
Haha. That’s how I felt for the longest time when I didn’t have a door to close off my bedroom. All I had was a curtain. Totally not the same effect as slamming a door.

@midnightrose A seat on the same boat we share.
And we even had phone numbers with a real name, and party lines..

@JustLikeGreta A better time I'm certain.
@Pambi a fascinating time, for sure.
.. and we didn't carry it around in our hand , wih our eyes focused on it like it was a nuclear device

@katielass Nothing wrong with a cheap bill..

@iamnikki well i just use it for emergencies really so I don't want a big bill. i freak when i hear some people spend $1,000 a month. That's stupid.

@katielass Don't know how they spend $1000 a month on phones... I pay $30 and I feel that's too much lol

I think I held the world record for women slamming their phone down on me

@cmh7882 Might at least you claim consistency as your claim to fame.
@cmh7882 Oops ! 😅

@SW-User I'm the Anti Christ? Or perhaps there are those who deserve a swift click in the ear.

I believe they have come up with a 'slam phone's app. Also missing the 8 hours it takes to dial a rotary phone long distance

What was real fun was putting shaving cream on the ear piece then calling that person to hear how they react.

Yeah, we had all the good stuff lol

Oh yes!!! Damn good times indeed
LOL ! True, it’s [b]not[/b] nearly as satisfying as slamming down the receiver. 😅
