I was a 90’s kiddo and I still resent having to carry around a phone everywhere. Everybody expects to know where you are at all times. I still remember a phone conversation I had once when I was in grade school.
RING RING
me: hullo?
them: Is your sister there?
me: no
them: Do you know where she went?
me: no
them: Do you know when she’ll be back?
me: no
them: ALL RIGHT YOU LITTLE SHIT YOU BETTER TELL HER I CALLED OR IMA KICK YOUR ASS THE NEXT TIME I SEE YOU
i remember those days. “i called over there but it’s busy… they must be on the internet.” because if you didn’t dial *67 before the number, call waiting would still be active, and when somebody called the “boop” would boot you off the cool warez chat you were on.
