I literally have the opposite experience with the phone thing lmfao

at some point I had a calculator (one of those slick 1990s casios) in my pocket, that king of looked like a phone. When I was passing one of the admins, I actually thought she thinks I have a phone in my pocket, so I gestured to it to say it's a calculator which she misinterpreted as me somehow boasting that I got a phone, so she was like "Oh so you got a phone, so what? Everyone does nowadays"
