One slight, tiny, intsy-wintsy, little discrepancy: 8/30/2024 is a Saturday; not Friday.If ever there was a day to not wake up, I think today is that day. 🤦‍♂️
I don't know where you live, but it's Saturday, August 31st here.
Can confirm, the 30th was a Friday for me
I wasn’t in SanFran yesterday but I’ll wager it was the 30th there.
Crew, I think dohpaz fell into a spatial anomaly. OPS get a tractor beam on him so we can slingshot him to the right date.
Might want to look at your phone real quick. You happen to be quite wrong.
If you told someone 30 years ago to look at their phone to get the time they'd look at you weird.
It was, however, common to listen to your phone to check the time.
I don't remember the local number to check the time when I was a kid. But I remember the local number to check the weather.
334-1515. "Brought to you by WGTC, where we've got the country."
Don't ask me how I remember something like that from 40 years ago.
The phone was used for all sorts of pre-internet information back then. Pretty innovative. I remember calling up the university agricultural extension to get plant info by entering various codes (entering, as in rotary dialing each number). Also the futuristic registering for college classes through a touch tone phone vs. standing in lines.
I remember calling up for.movie times. Sitting there waiting for every fucking movie to be listed before finally hearing yours and hitting the button, them listening to every fucking date before hitting for Saturday, then hearing every fucking time until the evening ones come up and your friends yells something at you and you miss the time.
For a while, the town I lived in had a big sheet they distributed with a ton of different free phone services you could use- including games! A bunch of choose-your-own adventures which would be updated regularly, I think once a week. It was great as a kid.
There was one that would say, “At the moan, the time will be [HH:MM] and [SS] seconds” and then there’d be a woman doing a sexy moan.

Time and the weather. We had it good. Still works too, so maybe we still have it good. =)
30 years ago they had to look at their phones? Doesn’t their implant tell them when they think of time?
Dohpaz, friend, pal, please... look at the date.
This was like, one of the easiest things ever to double check before posting my dude.
