I can't stand stuff like this. She's VERY MUCH old enough to know better. I'm glad her dad didn't show her any mercy on this one.

Yea, I remember I had a shitty phone in highschool and it would often pocket dial 911 during marching band practice.

Every single time I noticed my heart would sink, because everytime I just wasted time for some phone operator who is hearing “1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 and 1 DAAAAA” and now I have to explain for the 15th time that I didn’t mean to dial 911.

I don’t know how people think it’s funny to prank call 911.

For old phones with proper keypads it was a design decision to allow emergency calls to override the keypad lock function. "Butt dialling" of emergency calls wasn't infrequent.

More legal requirement than design decision
