I'd think I was crazy except my parents still have a landline, and when someone calls them the name for that number pops right up.
Of course it does.
Who even answers calls except the ones coming from people they know? What, are you expecting Publisher's Clearing House to call with your sweepstakes winnings? This is what voice mail is for, and I don't even have to listen to the calls because my voice mails are transcribed.
If a call comes from a local hospital, I'd pick up in case something happened to my wife or daughter, but other than that, I just tell Android to hold all my calls. I'm a busy man, I don't have time for chit chat.
It's funny, but I'm so used to ignoring incoming calls that when I play GTA V, and one of the other characters calls me about a heist or something, I barely react to the sound of the phone ringing. I'm like, "Hell, just text me with the location of the heist and leave me alone". I gotta go get a haircut, and I'm thinking about getting that three-rail fade or maybe cornrows.
