    Seems like there is a solution she hasn’t considered. Marrying a woman who has and uses her own phone. It won’t be “a man’s phone” then.

      Or a man that doesn’t use a phone, only a laptop.

      Or a non-binary that doesn’t use any technology.

      Or a clone of herself, that way she’s just showing herself her own phone.

        Clones stop being you the moment they are created, assuming they had your memories in the first place, which isn’t scientifically plausible.

        Please be serious about this 🙄

    Don’t have a kid. You’ll be made to watch videos on their phone. For hours’ worth of your life.

      If it’s exclusively David Attenborough documentaries, then that’s okay.

        It is not. Although it does involve lots and lots of animals so they can tell you how cute they are.

    A man can get into a lot of trouble, if he doesn’t watch the endless tiktok reals with enthusiasm and excitement.

    Showing me the weird shit you watch on YouTube is a requirement for me, I want to know what videos you watch when you’re alone and bored with nothing to do.

    I guess people don’t know the stand-up comedian Blair Socci yet. She’s kind of funny but I have a feeling this was an idea for a joke that isn’t fully formed. A lot of comedians use social media to workshop their stuff…

    I got married even though it meant waiting for every restaurant meal to be photographed and posted to Instagram before I could take a bite.

      We are not going out to eat often if I gotta wait for the perfect photo. You better get the waiter to take you back to the kitchen if you want snapshots of the food before I see it and take a bite.

        Hell yeah. My partner and I only take pictures of meals we’ve made ourselves when we’re super proud, and occasionally when a piece of sushi looks extra good. Neither of us are into social media.

        (Also neither of us make each other watch things on our phones. We just take a note if something sounds interesting and pull it up on the big screen later.)

    My wife tells me dad jokes. Really really terrible dad jokes. Ones that make me roll my eyes, and I’m a dad. That’s how bad they are. But they make her laugh so I’m ok with that.

      i have a tip to get back at her. whenever her phone rings, make sure you say ‘its for you’. i still find this hilarious after 15 years . she is less amused, but at least im entertained.

        Have you ever said it and it turned out to be someone calling the wrong number? Are you ever worried she’ll flip it on you and conspire with a friend to have them call you on her phone?

        You’re playing a dangerous game, friend.
