Why are the words coming out of the cradle and not the receiver? Artist don't know how landlines work?

In defence that's not a landline issue, that's a god damn rotary phone. Touchtone phones were invented in 1963. So.... people under 60 years old have likely never used them. I'm nearly 40, I'm pretty sure cordless phones were pretty standard in my house.
That being said, yeah even cordless phones, you'd surely know the basestation isn't where the sound comes from. Though I'd imagine it's probably just in ease of communicating the joke, as the focus is to make sure the reader isn't mistaking it to be the girl speaking, as if you put it at the earpiece that's still roughly where you'd put a speach bubble to represent the girl speaking without a phone.

I used plenty of rotary phones in the 80s. I don't miss them, either.

my grandparents had one when i was a kid. the wire went through some sort of pulse-to-tone converter box. nostalgia is powerful.

….. at grandma’s house….

But the difference between the speech bubbles already makes the distinction clear imo.
