I mean I don't know how big it was worldwide, but where I'm from there was like a whole trend some years back where teens would have these, landline telephone speaker/mics you plugged in to the headphone jack to make calls and they'd have it hang around their neck when not using it it was the dumbest fucking thing I've ever seen.

That honestly sounds hilarious. And I can 100% see some kids thinking they’re the coolest people on the face of the planet while doing it.
