Just happened to me too while I was playing some game online. They think we millennials should be gardening instead of gaming. Bitch we are the pioneers of modern tech. We grew up drinking internet.
They can't comprehend the fear that someone will pick up the phone in the middle of a battle.net match over dialup.
The trick is to have your own separate run to the phone box and just switch off all of the other phones in the house until you're done. It's only two wires.
If you forget to switch it back on though, you will get caught and nobody will understand how important it was to engineer things this way.
In my L4D2 group, I'm the only one who's 30+. The rest are all high school students. I can still keep up with them. 💪
