You need a new phone.

Imagine buying online tickets with a rotary phone.

This is you. Give it up, it’s over.

You’ll like your modern phone. So will your wife.

I think if your are required to download an APP, that person needs to be punched in the face. I'm gonna go edgelord here so watch out.

Not punched in the face, but through the face so brain matter is on my arm and I fist myself with it.

Fata ypu and your APP/marketing tool and forever eternal 13 emails a day.

I want a Bluetooth desktop handset that pairs to your phone and lets you dial numbers with a rotary wheel and plays the rotary tones like a real rotary phone.

People who call their grandparents 'nana and papa' are the worst. Lame, humorless, nerdy losers.

Isn't that a European thing?

My kids call their grandparents Mormor (mothers mother) and Morfar (mothers father) because they are Danish. What about korean kids. They gotta be full anglo whitey too?

........

Once again Apps continue to be a scourge. Just started avion points and have 75k.

Says 15k for shorthaul but the dogcrap app but doest allow you to see the eventual cost or use the points, so you have to phone in and go thrpigh that brutal process. So after a far to long comversation with that typical language barrier.

Its 15k points.

What is the extra costs after that.

What extra? Sigh.

Turns out the points is essentially a 50% coupon. There is no 50% coupon here. Sigh again.

Is there a way to cover the additional actual costs with points?

After another frustrating back and forth, you can but works out to 50k points.


Thank you. I justed to know how the numbers work.

Someone could make a calculator in excel in 10 minutes. What is wrong with them?

Uh yeah in Hangul they're not easy to pronounce words for grandfather/mother.

Mom/dad are easy - umma, appa.

Unlike English there are also a gigantic set of words for all your relatives.

Somehow in my family we used grandpa and grandma to distinguish paternal grandparents, and papa and nana for maternal gradparents.

I can't say I've ever thought to work up a strong opinion on what other people call their grandparents. Some of y'all need a hobby
