<div class=text-justify>

I recently began this thing where I'll make a phone ring rather than message it when there's something the human on the other end should hear me say. Send buttons are totally different when the response is potentially a real voice of a real human in real time. When they don't answer I'm all.</div>

*Mufucker I know you saw that shit!! Everyone knows how a phone works. Dial, send - ring -- ring - it illuminates and dances across the counter and you didn't push the green button!*

Some of the responses I get is like they're auditioning for 9-1-1. No hello or hi or anything.

> IS EVERYTHING OK❓❓

> Dude❗️ Did you mean to call me⁉️

I only recently began this experiment so the numbers are still rough but at first glance it appears the only thing on pace to decline faster than personable skills is bank trust.

I wish I could text message contacts in my phone like I can here with <sub>small words</sub> and *italics*.

<sub>***Hello. What happened was, I found an old notepad with some opening sentences I wrote down and never did anything with. That, and I got these Joshua Tree images I've been meaning to save on the blockchain. They're only found in two places—Joshua Trees; Jerusalem and the Mojave Desert in Southwestern USA; Los Angeles County, California, where @DanDays - The Luckiest Guy I Know was invented. Take that, China!***</sub>

I need to practice speaking in two's. 

I need to practice speaking in two's. 

Not just a repeat of my initial reaction but a duplicate me who reacts completely contrary in response to the same scenario. You look like you could use an example.

Instead of saying it'll never work when dude showed me his demo tape, I should've followed through with something positive.

*It'll never work. Not in this country at least. Maybe Paris, Australia even, but not here* and, in the same breath, *big huge balls you got for sharing your voice like that. On a phone of all things. I didn't know you played that many instruments, impressive!*

I'm a work in progress.

Just because you said it's not financial advice doesn't mean it's not financial advice. That's stupid. "This is not financial advice" **IS** precisely financial advice.

Talking about collapsing banks or unreliable stock options while offering refuge like Bitcoin or precious metals and claiming it's not financial advice is like me saying these words are not 𝔈𝔫𝔤𝔩𝔦𝔰𝔥.

This next one'll probably go down like a Stormy at Trump Tower.

I don't have much use for communities.

Likely because back when I started *this* they didn't exist and I'm the type who, if I can't fix it with a hammer, it ain't broke. I hear Reddit has them—communities. I don't have much use for Reddit, either.

I've never once gone to a community for content. I follow authors and #tags. One more. 

Opening sentence, that is.

Ever wonder how people have you identified in their phone? 

I do. Some of the contacts in my phone are very descriptive like Neighbor Mike White Toyota. Rainman, that's another one. Seems less descriptive than Neighbor Mike but if you know the original Rainman, it's not.

Bet you'll never guess what Diamonds Tom San Juan Batista's name is or what he does or where he lives. Wannabe Wallawallalineman is another one. Who am I in your phone, @splatts? Coolest Upstaters aka @thebigsweed and @farm-mom or @krazzytrukker—Clams *(Cat Lady in a Man Suit)*.

I think I have more nicknames in my phone than real names which doesn't make this new experiment any easier. Live voice conversations in lieu of text messages when you only know them as IRS Agent Cruise Ship or Tires Guy 7-11 is awkward and sometimes embarrassing like the other day when I called The Crow Lady, Citrus Subie Girl. 

She still hasn't taken me off ChatGPT.
