I think this meme is about the old story of calling 911 and pretending to order a pizza. This was a viral story almost a decade back and stayed in social media platforms as a real thing. However this widespread social media publicity actually helped a victim. Details are in the previous link. This worked only because the operator was aware about the internet lore and was able to connect it.

In summary don’t do it. Operators will disregard your call.

Pro tip: look up your local police station and dial their full 10 digit phone number instead of 911

I’d use 0118 999 881 999 119 725 3

Whoever made this meme is too young to have experienced “dialing” a phone number.

ArcaneSlime ,

It is still called dialing despite no longer being rotary phones, but also, they didn’t end the ability to use rotary phones until like 2005ish. I’ve used one before they ended it and I still have one that I wish I could use! Never know, OP could be like me lol.

SpaceNoodle ,

Who’s “they?” I recall my telco stopping support in the '90s, and we had to upgrade all the phones in the house.

ArcaneSlime ,

Good question, I suppose it varies by company, or maybe country. At any rate I used it in the 90s (and later), so I still would’ve met your telco’s cutoff date! Sounds like you used em too, so evidence that it is possible OP did continues to grow. There’s at least two of us!

May of been original to the house in the 60’s, this wall mount still worked until house sold in '09.

Why did it stop working after the house was sold?

Vandals_handle ,
@Vandals_handle@lemmy.world avatar

Cuz it was part of the estate and I kept it as a momento of my childhood. All the dialing a pain, especially international, so I did not try and use in my home.

stoicmaverick ,

Did you ever have to call for Air Superiority?

Vandals_handle ,
@Vandals_handle@lemmy.world avatar

Yes but it was piloted by stoicgoose so it did not end well

Dialed and typed is the same thing (?)

SpaceNoodle ,

Time to dial up a new resume

sem ,

For phone numbers I mean. Unless you had a rotary phone

scytale ,

Even on modern landlines where you pushed buttons, it was still called dialing. Someone who calls it typing probably only ever called people using a smartphone.

sem ,

Even on touch phones it’s still called dialing though…

Just like it was for the button phones. It’s the same as typing

PeriodicallyPedantic ,

But on modern smartphones, you probably manually enter in the phone number so rarely that they never even learned the word.
The on screen dialpad is displayed the same way as the on screen keyboard so they used the same word.

Emergency pizza

Tylerdurdon ,

I haven’t heard anything about this fella in a minute. Is he still championing Trump while spouting random hate/nuttiness?

Lupus ,

Who cares what this living example for why you should take your meds has to say?

I feel like all this attention it brought him only amplified his mental disorders. I sincerely hope that he is getting the help he clearly needs and that the media will leave him alone for the sake of his sanity.

You know, Abilify would have probably cured the Hunter right away from the psychosis induced by the blood administration. Then he wouldn’t have to have his head cut off or fight a giant moon thing

Restaldt ,

But then no doll mommy

i_dont_want_to ,

Oof I was hoping this was a joke about ordering a pizza from an app and the spouse didn’t like that they were only entering the security code and not the whole card number… Because the joke is about having the credit card saved. :(

Sakychu ,

Too innocent for this world…

LainTrain ,

What?

unexposedhazard ,

The image depicts a know violent asshole. The wife is not calling the Pizza place but instead calling 911.

Num10ck ,

Kanye is violent?

I hadn’t actually heard of any abuse allegations either. I also don’t keep up with celebrity stuff anymore. I just knew that if a fruitcake saw him, it would turn to another fruitcake and say “that guy is nutty”

curbstickle , (edited )

Abusive, yes, but as far as I’m aware not violent. Still fits (calling 911 as per the post), but not for physical abuse.

He has been known to publicly harass and threaten (it’s why he was barred from the Grammy awards), he’s been sued by employees for harassment, intimidation, retaliation,and discrimination, and even failure to pay his employees, and he’s also being sued by his former personal* assistant for sexual harassment, including him masturbating in front of her.

Kanye is 100% an abusive PoS. Just not, as of now, physically abusive afaik.

Edit: Stupid autocorrect typo personally/personal

Edit 2: Some violence

Second article starts with an amazing line:

Kanye West, the disgraced former shoe salesman and dinner companion of Holocaust-denier Nick Fuentes

unexposedhazard ,

I think he beat up a papparazzi once but that is the extent of his physical violence i guess yeah.

curbstickle ,

Forgot about that, and I think someone who asked for an autograph?

The paparazzi one, unfortunately, I can understand.

LainTrain ,

Pizza place?

unexposedhazard ,

Pizzaz Palace

Modest_Toxic ,

She’s calling to order a pizza but dials 911 instead

obinice ,
@obinice@lemmy.world avatar

They’re referring to when someone experiencing domestic abuse calls 999 and pretends to order a pizza, when really that’s a signal to the police that they need help.

Calls 999

Viking_Hippie ,

Innit!

Grabthar ,

0118 999 881 999 119 725 3 now though, right?

LainTrain ,
