The worst is when you're running through the house and you're not paying attention and you get fucking clotheslined by the stretchy cable, snatch the phone out of your mom's hand, smack yourself in the head with the phone that's now moving at four and a half times the speed of sound, and then your mom yells at you because you interrupted her call while you are laying on the ground with a fucking concussion and rope burns around your neck like a suicide survivor.

If you were lucky it was one of the newer handsets that only weighed a couple of pounds (still hurt like a bitch). Growing up in the '80s we had one that was probably from the early '70s that could be used to club baby seals.
