Get off my god damn lawn!
- I have this picture hanging on my wall. Never seen it online before.
  
  Nice! I don't know where I first saw it, maybe on a New Yorker cover, but the image came to me so I googled Norman Rockwell self portrait and found it.
- So that's how you took selfies back in 1890?
- Such a cool take on the self portrait. Truly creative!

I'm from the 90s and can confirm this is true

It was a pain in the ass to sext when you didn't have a roll of quarters handy.
- You could always do it at home!
  "Hey baby, what are you weari---"
  screeching dial up noises
  
  Hhhnnngh, t-thats it babe... 😩
- Also typing on these things was a pita when you have like 3 or 4 letters on each key
  
  I remember when I got my first qwerty phone. I hated typing on it. So much easier with my t9

Dial 1-800-CALL-ATT and press 4 for selfie
- That will be $86.17 on a 3 year contract for 5 selfies a month. Overages are $25/selfie. No long-distance. Nights and weekend selfies are one (1) at no charge per week (rolling 7 days).

payphone at home? dad was a penny pincher

I admit that I had to stare at that pic for a second longer than should have been necessary.

I want that payphone. But I am content with my Korean war field phone.
