Strangelet Wave posted:i remember the practice, in Australia c. 2008, of calling someone with your cellphone and immediately hanging up when you hear the ringtone as a means of sending a prearranged signal (usually meaning “im here, meet me outside”). the recipient would hear their phone ring, see the missed call and the caller’s number, and understand that the signal had been sent all the quoted terms made me think of "sidetalking" and god the n-gage was magical
