I want to make fun of this person having a phone-in-drain problem, but I’ve lived long enough to witness the universe dole out instant karma to people teasing others.

A friend’s mother-in-law told her a story about watching lots of small children and not being able to herd them all to a washroom fast enough, which led to her shitting her pants. My friend made fun of her mother in law, incredulously wondering what kind of adult ever poops their pants. That very night she shit her bed.

You see, that's why OP always carries a second phone: To photograph the first one not falling into the gutter

Do you not have friends to take fun photos for you?

No one has friends IRL anymore - they’re all virtual. Soon they’ll all be AI. That’s when humanity ends. Coming soon.

[–] ThunderQueen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

How often are you dropping your phone into a street drain?

[–] 69420@lemmy.world 65 points 2 days ago

Quite a lot actually. It has that stupid handle on it so it doesn't ft in my pocket.

It doesn't usually go down the grate, it goes down the big hole

[–] BeUnique@lemmy.zip 10 points 2 days ago (7 children)

It also doesn't fit in your pocket. How convenient.

Clip to a carabiner on your belt loop

I have broken zero phones and lost exactly zero phones in drains

Can somebody confirm this is a concern? Is it an alcoholism thing?

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I think it's a going out and doing things to have fun thing.
