I didn't even watch the video. I'm talking to the OP. She is "shaking her damn head" at kids these days because they cant use a rotary phone.

Its a fricking dial with some numbers on it. it's pretty simple to figure out. it's not like these idiot kids are trying to solve the Hodge conjecture.

This thread is not going as planned for OP.
