Phone calls still assume the people on the receiving end are attached to a desk.

Why couldn't this call be an email? Why would you call, when you know that you are near indistinguishable from spam calls about Microsoft services and Nigerian princes?
You're viewing a single thread.
here we go, socially awkward redditors moralizing their awkwardness around phones again
It's called a human conversation, try it some time assholes. I'm sooooo sorry someone speaking to you is inconvenient.
have you considered returning to monke? nah then you'd just whine about fecal baseball being awkward
Why are you so upset?
because it seems like nowdays everyone isolates and pretends their discord relationships are real, and then complains when an actual human being calls them. there's already no connection between people, no communal spaces, no in-person relationships. it's so hard to see anyone anymore. and now you all want to shit all over one way to connect more directly?
and how almost every commenter in this space has the same mentality. it's horrifying. are you all shut-ins? it reveals something dark about the kind of people that post on this site and really undermines other communities.
and seeing people moralizing mental disorders instead of taking responsibility for them. that does real harm to others. anxiety is manageable and treatable. retreating into these closed systems only exacerbates it, and encouraging others to do the same only exacerbates theirs.
Those are some pretty broad, sweeping generalizations. I typically don't answer calls because 9 times out of 10, its a spam call and I'm just tired of dealing with it. I do have some discord friends who are pretty good ones Ive known for a long time but I also have friends from school, work, ect.
I'm sure plenty of other people in this thread are like that too but I don't see how exactly this harms you. I think you're overreacting to this and also projecting a lot of your insecurities about the issue onto others around you. People are going to live their lives, that's never going to change and worrying about it especially to this extent is a very unhealthy mindset to have .
With this attitude there is no way in hell you should or could be the leading authority on human conversation.
It's called social anxiety. I'm so sorry someone being anxious is inconvenient to you.
Have you considered not commenting?
oh no you might be uncomfortable!!! that's so sad. whoever calls you is totally responsible.
anxiety sucks but stop blaming others for it. it's not their fault you choose to avoid the phone. maybe seek help for learning how to do a very basic human function instead of blaming others for it? or encouraging others to become defunct in a basic human function?
Ok boomer, let's get you back to bed.
