I used to have 2 phones just because I liked having an iPhone and an Android phone. Nobody believed me when I told them that I was genuinely just a tech enthusiast.
Uhhh... It's a work phone

I have 3 phones (that I use) and in total 9 active phone numbers from 4 countries.
Just because I can.
5 of those are on removable eSIM in my main phone.hardcoreufo@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
After 15 years of android I cannot get used to my work iphone. Everything about it is wrong.

Using my ex’s phone was like this. “I thought you were so good with technology”. This fucking thing doesn’t have a back button. Makes me think back to Apple’s single button mouse.

There was a guy I worked with years ago who did the same. He always had the best android and the best iPhone. He liked to be the go to guy when you wanted a new phone or something.

My wife basically did this to her racist grandpa one time. I think they were having dinner with friends and she goes “Gwampa, I have a question, is a ‘Jive-Ass Jiggaboo’ the same thing as a ‘Jungle Bunny’?”
It did not go over well with her grandpa’s friends lmao.

There are many things I didn’t understand about this. And that’s okay.

Short version, Wife’s granddad was an old racist. Old racist granddad made wife mad. Old racist granddad wanted to impress some people. Wife casually asked old racist granddad about some super old super racist terms he said to her in front of said people to embarrass him in front of them.

What’s “Jive-ass Jigaboo”?
Macchi_the_Slime@piefed.blahaj.zone 2 weeks ago
From what I can gather it’s like a super old racist term for a black person. idk if I’d call it a full on slur, but definitely in that ballpark. But either way we’re talking like 1920s old. Like this term was at least 75 when my wife did this to her grandfather in 2000.

“Jive” is an older term for what you might call less offensively call Ebonics or AAVE. Popular in the 80’s, I remember my mom talking about having a computer program that would “translate” things into jive.
“Jigaboo” is a slur for a black person.

In the police academy movie, its what the white asshole called the black lady who ran over his foot… which made hightower fucking pissed at him and flipped the car he was hiding in.
So its probably a bad slur.

“Ho phone”

I got three different playa phones. One for each part-time shorty.
But I really have a work phone that they pay for because I am absolutely not putting any work shit on my phone. No teams, no outlook, no workday, no authenticators, no emergency alerts. I think a guy who got fired was using it as a playa phone or porn phone. My boss said his data use was always maxed out and everyone else used roughly 1-2 GB.
I only take it home on weekends on the rare case i want to check an email or request time off through workday. It does come in handy while camping/road tripping. I charge it up and turn it off then toss it in the glovebox as an emergency phone.
We used to have pagers as recently as 2022 which seems way more sketchy for the time but i miss them. Always worked, only got important notifications, smaller.

The implication that the child is mad the dad spanked then, so they is going to out the father as a cheater at the family diner. The second phone is for the adultery.

I used to wonder who my dad was talking to out in the garage on the landline he had our there. Seemed to always make his way out there when mom was working or running errands.
Hey dad, why do you have a word document hidden on the computer that lists things like “house” and “tools” with amount of money beside them?
Record scratch
Yep. That’s me. My whole life is about to get turned upside down - I just don’t know it yet…
