Look, a phone call is an emergency. Someone is in the hospital or you need me over somewhere ASAP, maybe with a weapon.

Otherwise a SMS or email can do it in just fine.

It isn’t even about anxiety (just a bonus) but it’s that everyone sounds like SHIt on a phone speaker. I can’t make out words. Even with HQ headphones on your voice is gonna get rekt by every ambient noise on both our ends.

“It’s just a phone call!” You do not comprehend the mental anguish I experience at the very idea of a phone call, and the utter confusion I feel every day about why it is so god damn terrifying, as I am fully aware that it is, in fact, Just A Phone Call
