Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 9, 2026 2:47 PM b0b

followed by an A71

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 9, 2026 2:47 PM b0b

(current phone)

Polar_ Jan 9, 2026 2:47 PM b0b

What grade were you in when you first got a cell phone? I was in 5th grade. Idk the ages of certain grades

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 9, 2026 2:47 PM b0b

12

Polar_ Jan 9, 2026 2:48 PM b0b

Yea i was prob like 10 or 12 by then

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 9, 2026 2:48 PM b0b

Only got one because I was starting university the next year, and needed it to let my mom know if there was issues coming back

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 9, 2026 2:48 PM b0b

He means 12th grade

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 9, 2026 2:48 PM b0b

yeah

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 9, 2026 2:48 PM b0b

I meant that

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 9, 2026 2:48 PM b0b

grade 12 lmao

Polar_ Jan 9, 2026 2:48 PM b0b

Lmao

Polar_ Jan 9, 2026 2:48 PM b0b

That became apparent when you brought up university

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 9, 2026 2:48 PM b0b

you asked what grade

Polar_ Jan 9, 2026 2:48 PM b0b

Yea ik thats my own fault

Polar_ Jan 9, 2026 2:49 PM b0b

I couldn't guess my own age at the time and didn't feel like googling it(I immediately googled it)

Polar_ Jan 9, 2026 2:49 PM b0b

I used to go out on my bike a lot so my parents wanted me to have one just in case

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 9, 2026 2:50 PM b0b

I was either bussed (before cellphones were really a thing most people had), or was within 10 minutes of walking to school

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 9, 2026 2:50 PM b0b

so there was no point

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 9, 2026 2:50 PM b0b

I would just go for 3 hour walks and return when I returned

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 9, 2026 2:50 PM b0b

I think I got mine in 5th or 6th Motorola Rumor

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 9, 2026 2:50 PM b0b

After that a HTC Nexus 5--->LG G7 ThinQ --->Sony Xperia 1-III

Polar_ Jan 9, 2026 2:51 PM b0b

Kinda crazy how dominant this phone was, because I saw years later it gave off hella radiation iirc

Will have to check when not driving

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 9, 2026 2:53 PM b0b

I think my generation being the one where no one really had phones, to everyone having phones by the time I was ending highschool is such a weird thing

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 9, 2026 2:53 PM b0b

literal different world from what modern kids grow up with

Polar_ Jan 9, 2026 2:54 PM b0b

Not to sound unc,but i think growing up in the transitional period of computers and tech was very cool and neat

Polar_ Jan 9, 2026 2:55 PM b0b

I wonder what younger generations will hold nostalgia for, because shit kinda sucks rn and I can only really pinpoint early AI as a thing to look back at

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 9, 2026 2:57 PM b0b

(they will be too brain damaged to feel emotion like nostalgia)

Polar_ Jan 9, 2026 2:58 PM b0b

They will be too chinese by then and have nostalgia for the days of the gweilo

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gweilo

Gweilo

Gweilo or gwailou (Chinese: 鬼佬; Cantonese Yale: gwáilóu, pronounced [kʷɐ̌i lǒu] ) is a common Cantonese slang term for white people. The term can be literally translated as "ghoul man" or "ghost man" and has a history of racially deprecatory and pejorative use, though its modern usage is often in a general and non-derogatory context.

It was a horrible shit phone

Polar_ Jan 9, 2026 3:05 PM b0b

I was put on my parents plan as they were grandfathered into a very good deal from when sprint was older. So I still got stuff like unlimited data luckily

Polar_ Jan 9, 2026 3:06 PM b0b

Sprint is now dead though, also it kinda sucked

mint Jan 9, 2026 3:32 PM b0b

yeah 5th grade/11 years old when i got that lg slide. then after that point i started getting hand-me-down smartphones whenever my parents upgraded. had an HTC phone that ran kitkat cant remember exact model first, then an iphone 4 i think

mint Jan 9, 2026 3:33 PM b0b

i swear i have heard this used a few times in recent memory

Polar_ Jan 9, 2026 3:35 PM b0b

Gweilo has been a joke for quite a few years but it has not been recovered in the current chinese meme era

I was pos1 as timbersaw. it went pretty well. I wasn't actually pos1 in terms of farming, that went to our razor, but by the end of the game I had a blink and a shiva's and kaya&sange so I was certainly itemized enough to be a persistent threat in every fight which I leveraged into us taking all their barracks at 22 minutes in

bob Jan 14, 2026 12:11 AM b0b

will never get enough of killing and eating windranger players

bob Jan 14, 2026 12:13 AM b0b

I even got the aforementioned razor a rampage by being ungodly tanky into their mostly physical damage team. and then when the enemy shadow fiend missed all his shadowrazes on me and only had right clicks left he soon found that the ball of 37 armor and 80 hp regen would simply refuse to die

bob Jan 14, 2026 12:21 AM b0b

that's my most recent game, I also had a game earlier today as slardar where I totally took everything over

bob Jan 14, 2026 12:21 AM b0b

won lane super hard with a pugna and while he was doing shit on the map I was farming like mad

bob Jan 14, 2026 12:21 AM b0b

show up to every teamfight with blink and I had a pipe because the enemy team had rubick lich and grimstroke

bob Jan 14, 2026 12:22 AM b0b

proceed to fistfuck the enemy team with bashes and blinks and stuns and corrosive haze

bob Jan 14, 2026 12:23 AM b0b

then bought bkb and became thanos

I couldn't find it last night bob, but I posted a photo awhile ago where I had a Slardar pos5 who just decided to sit in money tunnel and buy 2 Moonshards. It was very troll until he emerged and just bashed everyone to death instantly and they couldn't kill him

bob Jan 14, 2026 4:30 PM b0b

that's super weird

bob Jan 14, 2026 4:31 PM b0b

is money tunnel what you call the mid lane?

Polar_ Jan 14, 2026 4:46 PM b0b

Money tunnel is that section of jungle camps thats between the safe lanes t1 and t2

bob Jan 14, 2026 5:08 PM b0b

never heard it referred to as that before
