FFS, maybe eight people here are old enough to remember that.

Never mind a crank phone and party lines.

I doubt anybody on voat used a crank one.

Party lines! As in spy and listen ones? Or later on the ones that offered hot times?

Yup, that's what I'm talkin about.

Always had the one old lady that had to listen to every conversation.

My Aunt had one that was still in operation, think maybe it was modified somehow though.

I sure do. Now what I do instead is fling a few hundred dollar device onto the couch.

And the freak out when it bounces off and clatters off the table onto the floor.

Otterboxes were designed for anger management.

Why don’t people just through their cough mug instead?

This exact model -- https://kek.gg/i/3Jg-2y.jpeg

Have a landline so this serves it's purpose. The sound quality is a bit more pleasant than cellphones.

I remember my phone had a dial and was owned by the phone company. Part of my phone bill was device rental.

I barely remember that. I wasn’t old enough to know much about bills back then.
