If it's important they will leave a voicemail.

Perpetually silenced.

Could be really urgent. Happens sometimes.

Yes that's a great way to relay really urgent stuff that needs reply right away. lol

Whenever it's my immediate family or partner I'm paranoid that they're dying or something, so probably can't send a text

They can leave a voicemail

They can leave a message about how urgent it is.

I just put my phone into airplane mode when I don't want to pick up. I think it's better than just declining or waiting for the call to time out.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I never want to pick up, though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Or just turn it off for a bit

Everyone in my family has voicemail message that says "Sorry I missed your call, I don't check voicemail, please text."

I hate phone calls. Never answered the phone before the rise of cell phones, avoided getting a cell phone until they were wee computers, because the last thing I want is to be perpetually available by phone, still don't answer the phone.

Google 6 phone lets me screen the call.

Is that the guy from Aqua?

Nice. Just in case you weren't joking: it's from the movie The Mummy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

The 1999 cinematic masterpiece starring Rachel Weisz and Brendan Fraser? Great flick.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was joking but I appreciate your effort to help out and include people.

I tried finding an image where René isn't smiling. It's hard.

Edit: smiling.

Btw, how do I embed images? Do I have to download the image first?

I think it's Imhotep from the Brendan Frasier The Mummy movie.

I don't know if you were waiting for a serious answer, but here you go.

Chakotay on Star Trek Voyager was played by Robert Beltran. Imhotep in The Mummy was played by Arnold Vosloo.

Put your phone on airplane mode. The call will end immediately and the caller will see "call failed"
