Let her go. Anyone that doesn't appreciate innovation like this will just slow you down on your path to greatness.

See also, using a slim Jim for your fingerprint unlock

Ah haaah, now it's just a key...

But then you take a bite in a moment of weakness, and you're locked out. :(

totally unrelated time in the screenshot, I'm sure

or unread messages?

[–] obinice@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why am I not seeing a picture? On my end this is just a text post where a guy said oooh yeah and nothing else 😅

[–] bingbong@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 day ago

Oooohhhh yeaaaah!

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 35 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Jessie?

James?

I suddenly have an image of the people in this conversation...

[–] MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 3 points 17 hours ago

(spotlights dramatically click on)

"Prepare 4-20!"

"And make 69 funny!"

[–] ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca 35 points 1 day ago

Jessie: I've been thinking of dating other men

James: Me too!

Who's taking the photo? Do people really have extra phones around just for moments like this?

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

not this thread again

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I carry 2 phones all the time. I work in government. If I use my phone for work, it becomes subject to Open Records requests, so the city gives me a stipend to pay for a second phone to do all my city business.

I worked at a different city that didn't do that for most employees, and everyone just used their personal phones anyway. We got an Open Records request that resulted in me having to search everyone's text message history. I felt dirty.

[–] MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 2 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

So in that scenario, taking a picture like the OP would result in some raised eyebrows no matter which phone snapped the picture of which phone, it sounds like! XD

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 hours ago

I have a separate phone for work. Not government or anything. I have a bunch of personal apps on it, but I don't like having my only phone be owned by my work.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 day ago (2 children)

They are making cameras now for kids without phones attached. Might be one of those.

[–] authorinthedark@lemmy.sdf.org 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

they also make cameras for adults without phones on them

[–] HyperlinkYourHeart@lemmy.ml 3 points 20 hours ago

That's ridiculous how would you even post the photos?

[–] Elgenzay@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 day ago

I've never seen a kid without a phone attached

[–] Rolder@reddthat.com 4 points 1 day ago

Hanging out with a friend or family and borrowing their phone, I would imagine

[–] disguy_ovahea@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

Back when we were kids he went by Skinny Jimmy.

[–] 1985MustangCobra@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He dodged a bullet.

Well, more Slim Jims for the rest of us, then.
