I believe it. I haven’t seen a landline in at least 10 years and it’s been 20 years since I’ve used one
bullshite.
You haven't even SEEN a landline in over a decade, despite there being some in almost every single building you walk into in your life? Yeah, okay.

I still have a landline. I know.....I know.
Anyway, a few years ago I bought an old style rotary phone at a flea market. It is a gaudy French deal with gold plating. It has the most annoying ring to it there is. I keep it plugged in sometimes just to confuse the shite out of people when a scammer calls and that loud arse thing starts ringing. People always look around like a bomb is about to blow or something until they realize what it is.
I always chuckle.

Now an old school rotary phone with a 50 foot cord all kinked up that your mom walked around the whole house with? I aint seen one of those yellow/gold bastards in a while.

The way she just stared blankly at it after dialing the number searching for that "send" or "call" key is pretty funny.

I just cancelled my cotton gin orders. Thought they would make for good Christmas stocking stuffers.
Guess not.
