Sometimes all i feel when i read this shit is!

“HELL YEAH, ENSHITIFACATE ME HARDER DADDY”

“Make me hate you even more, make everyone else hate you like i have always done you sick pattern of economic misaligned. Make us hate you till we make you no longer exist!”

We're not far off really. I'd wager more people are using things like WhatsApp or Discord for calls, and there are ads baked into those.

Yall still talking on the phone

I had this terrible dream that I went to a movie theater and had to watch ads in the middle and more right before the end of the film. And they told me if I wanted to skip the ads I would have to pay 50% more for my already $20 ticket.

Remember when movies were $5 for matinee or sometimes one day in the week was $5. ? Anyone ?

It wasn't that long ago.

I used to go to the movies like 1x or 2x a month. Now it's literally been years. I think last time was the first new dune movie.

Sad.

Voice calls sponsored by Mountain Dew. Drink a verification can to continue.

Thats why you sail the high seas OP.

It's already mostly scammers and sales people that call me

Ist that even a meme?
