Text- respond whenever

Call- attention now

It’s a call to responsibility, and I hate those

[-] Gonzako@lemmy.world 17 points 2 days ago

What do you fear?

That you're not up to the task?

That you'll dissapoint your peers?

Pick up that phone and face your fears

For you will never miss

the paths you failed on

but the ones you never dared to tread.

I’ve basically ceased listening to music, so if this is a song, it’s fallen out of memory.

But anyway, It’s not fear, it’s exasperation at my limited daily free time being sectioned by someone else. The comic doesn’t reflect my personal feelings. (Pretty poem or lyrics)

[-] Gonzako@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Oh, it was impromtu poesy lol

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

In what world do you live that time sensitivity is never a thing? Also it's just a helluva lot easier sometimes to talk for one minute instead of write for 10 and still get the wrong tone.

[-] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago

Never a thing? It seems like you’re conflating what I have to do with what I want to do. I want freedom to answer at the time of my choosing. Doesn’t mean I’ll always get it, but that’s what I prefer

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Well the way you expressed your preference sounds like you don't accept time sensitivity as a valid thing.

[-] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago

I’ll write with all the nuance of Michael meyers in an orphanage, if I think it’s a little funi

[-] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

If you take 10 minutes to write, there is something wrong ig also, calls never last only 1 minute

[-] alternategait@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I've definitely logged <1 minute calls. Usually to order take out.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world -1 points 2 days ago

Lotta pretending not to get the point to justify a phobia, but you do you.

[-] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 0 points 1 day ago

Or that your point was fucking stupid and they were rightfully discounting it.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago

A third party voter AND afraid of answering the phone?! You must be exceedingly popular.

[-] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 0 points 1 day ago

And establishment sheep and an ableist twat? You must be even more popular.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago

No one believes your ideals are real. You are a fraud.

[-] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 0 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Lol projection much?

Just because you have no ideals doesn't mean others who do are frauds.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago

Ps being afraid of answering the phone is not a disability. I've had crippling social anxiety my whole life and don't love phone calls either but I don't make it my personality or anyone else's problem. If someone calls me I either answer or not. I don't seek approval for it being a tiny inconvenience (5 minutes of awkwardness at worst) I want to overblow.

[-] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 0 points 1 day ago

Not even gonna bother with this ableist rant.

"I can do it fine so others struggling must be overblowing it for attention". You sound exactly like the right wing chuds you claim to oppose. Typical centrist

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago

Typical 19 year old on your end.

[-] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 0 points 23 hours ago

Again with the projection.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago

You don't care about Gaza and everyone knows it

[-] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 day ago

Says the one who willingly votes for those who support Israel.

Your actions speak louder than your empty words and accusations.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago

Says the one who voted for trump with extra steps while pretending they're morally superior. You're morally inferior and you're disgusting

[-] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 0 points 1 day ago

Lol such simplistic mentality. That's not how voting works you simpleton.

[-] protist@retrofed.com 3 points 2 days ago

Can always decline the call and text "I'll call you back in x minutes," giving you full control over your own life

[-] Bluewing@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

But that requires a commitment! Can't be put into that box!

[-] cageythree@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

But you still don't know what they wanted, so the extra thinking time isn't worth anything. (Unless we're comparing to those nut jobs that just text "hey" and then wait without continuing to describe their matter)

[-] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago

I guess, but if it’s a friend, I feel rude treating them like a part of my workload

[-] jaybone@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 days ago

Except if I’m taking a two hour nap for sleep I desperately need. They can deal with voicemail.
