Are young people actually confused by rotary phones?
It just seems so unlikely to me. I looked it up on snopes and couldn't find anything.
There are a a lot of videos online of kids and teenagers unable to make a call using a rotary phone¹, but to me I felt it had to be some scripted thing to try and achieve viral status.
I mean they've been seen in movies so many times, and sounds like the dial tone and the busy signal are such cultural tropes, it just seems like bullshit to me.
What does HN think?
