Pluggers by Rick McKee for February 06, 2023

He keeps other people on slow dial or no dial!

A true plugger dials down the speed of everything he does.

The aim in Diet and Dialing — low-fat-finger.

I thought that was what the contact list was for ;-)

Where’s his flip phone?

I was thrilled when the touch phone came around

Speed dialing on the old crank telephone was having an operator that remembered the number you rattled off and not having to have it repeated.

It’s easy when you’ve written the three or four numbers you actually use taped on half a Post-it on your phone. (Why waste a perfectly good half of a Post-it.)

Anyone remember the old Motorola Brick phone

funny when i press on the numbers two press or three, it makes calling up dominoes hard let me tell you

From today’s Comics Curmudgeon:

It’s hard to get more Pluggers that today’s Pluggers, in which a plugger looks more smug than you can possibly imagine after completing a basic task that used to be something everyone did and now is something that nobody actually needs to do.

Hmm… Poppa Bear upgraded to a Motorola with the antenna ;-)

assuming the fastest number you’ve dialed is emergency services

Hey! Be happy he has a portable phone.

Looks like it may be a “candy bar”phone which is even older than a flip phone.
