Sitcoms and phones

Oops..getting ready for work.

and answering the phone with 'Yes?' and hanging up without saying 'bye'

I don't answer my phone unless it's family at those hours. My family wouldn't call unless it was an absolute emergency.

This thread and others make me think that Datalounge is basically a secret underground civilization of people who have never seen the actual world above. The only clues they have to it are some ancient videotapes of the complete series of "I Love Lucy" and "The Golden Girls," and they watch these over and over again, obsessing about them, going over every last detail, and wondering just how life in the sunlit world above can possibly correspond to the details of what they're seeing on the holy videotapes.
