    Nah, most everyone had landline phones back in the 90s, it was more or less just my stubborn and paranoid dad that refused to get one.

    But yeah, shit happens 🤷

      Oh I know, I just thought it was funny that the idea of someone not having had a landline was weird to me, until I realized that most people nowadays don’t have them! We just had one of those “plug directly into the phone line, no electricity needed” phones until 2006ish because my mom was paranoid about caller ID for the longest time, so I get it :)
