whaaatt?? 😂
Oh FFS…
When you called someone and they were already on the phone and there was no such thing as voicemail.
Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep.
Hang up, try again a minute later…
Repeat.
ohhh, right 😂 i’m not native, so i’m just thinking of all of these in my native language, sorry for that 🫶😂
Speaking of voicemail, remember when we had to call in to check our messages?
huh? what?
Um…
That doesn’t sound familiar at all 🤔
We had a phone number to call that would tell you how many voice messages you had waiting and let you listen to them. You could even respond to them by recording another message and sending it back.
I’ve never ever sent or received a voice message on my phone, wasn’t ever a thing 🤷♂️💜
Bruh.
Did you know we use to call a number to find out the movie times as the movie theater?
“Helllllo… and welcome to moviefone! If you know the name of your movie… press 1 now”
You could also call for the time and date, sometimes even the weather.
stoppp this is a meme right?
No seriousness
Absolute truth. This happened in the 90s before the Internet.
We didn’t even have 911 yet. You had to KNOW the phone number of the local fire department or call the operator to connect you in an emergency.
Not a meme. The reality of my childhood. 😂 moviefone and checking the movie times in the newspaper.
This sounds so crazy to me, I was born in 99 😂💜
To be honest, it was awesome. Meeting friends was an adventure every time. You’d call (on the landline) decide when and where to meet, and then venture out into the world with no means of communication until you returned home, unless you count the odd pay phone (which you never had change for anyway).
Sounds amazing honestly, I didn’t have a phone before 1st grade, and that’s what I can really compare it to 🤷♂️💜
1st grade?! 🤣🤣 I can’t relate
hahahahaha stoppp
Kids these days 😂
Hahahahaha 😂💜
Omg… Kids.
The movie.
Nope not today 💀
So true
“Hello, and welcome to Moviefone!”
YES🤣🤣
No wayyyy

In Canada you could press *69 to figure out the number that just called you, instead of call display.
Try this again.
Hahahahahahahaah this is soooo goofy 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Times were simpler then.
There was no caller ID on a house phone.
So someone like you would thrive.
You couldn’t screen the call or make people text you. People would have to answer to see who it was 🤣
I would’ve been the best salesman ever then 💜😂
I loved doing all the prank calls 🤣
Go listen to the Jerky Boys. NOW #[8] !
Hahahahah, who in their right mind calss themselves Jerky Boys 🤣💜

Don’t think I’ve ever heard of it 🤷♂️💜
The jerky boys
Good times.
Or if you were fancy you could pay extra for the phone company to "call you" to tell you that the person you were trying to reach finally got off the phone.
The struggle was real 🤣
If it was an emergency you could dial 0 and ask the operator to interrupt them.
Not in Oz you couldn’t 🤣
