Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.

Back in the late 80s when I wanted to talk to a friend, you had to pick up a phone and call. I think this trained the GenX kids to be able to use a phone.
Ya, well into the 90s.
It's less if you want to but if you have the ability to. If you were born a Zoomer, you probably would lack that skill.
It's always funny explaining to people that grew up post cell phones that if we wanted to talk to a girl, we had to call her house phone, which often meant introducing yourself to her father first.
Oh shit, I totally forgot. And sometimes the parents would eavesdrop on the call.
