    No human has ever used it

    TIL I’m not human. I wonder what path life has taken you that you’ve never been thankful for a voicemail. Granted, I’m annoyed by them more often, but I’ve definitely had a few good voicemails

            This has always been a strange thing for me. All of my peers starting getting spam calls around middle/high school, but I never did. To this day, I hardly get any spam calls. And when I say hardly, I mean like… I genuinely think the total number of spam calls I’ve gotten since turning 18 is less than 50 at most.
