Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

MODERATORS
You can either assume this person is trolling, or know that somewhere out there, there is someone this dumb and respond sincerely just incase they, or someone else reading it, is that person. I would not take the risk to continue a joke like that on a public space. Its obvious, but its not obvious enough to someone who would keep a phone with an expanding battery.
It started with a Spinal Tap joke and then described his phone as "warm and soft". Yes there are people who don't know how dangerous battery pillowing can be. No, there are not people who use a cell phone as a hand warmer without thinking anything might be amiss, and they certainly aren't posting blithely about "gatekeeping".
I know plenty of people that use their phone as a hand warmer, it's just that the phone is actually doing something (extremely unoptimized game) and is inside of their mitten.
