My heartbeat just goes up. It just triggers me so fucking much.

Even talking does't trigger me that much, it's something about that phone speaker's weak crackling sound, I despise that. It's like the REVERSE of asmr.

I love when they hold it like a slice of pizza like they're some vapid famewhore on a reality TV show. It's a well-designed sound device held exactly wrong, so the noise-canceling and gain control are going fucking nuts.

It's like it's bad for you, bad for the phone, bad for the person using the phone; who looks like a moron as a bonus. Good job, chucklenuts!

I'm not sure if the same (or any at all) noise reduction works when using speakerphone. I kind of understand the sentiment for using it - looking back at COVID times and the "don't put the phone to your face, it's dirty", but even that was a bit exaggerated - and I still agree that there are still way too many people using speakerphone when they shouldn't (voice-only calls and all).
