   The biggest generational divide is found in the way people hold their phones

      @lain Also the European / South-East Asian divide (I'm assuming, from the Swedish / HK divide).
      
      What's your divide? I believe my parents and I hold them the same when we're talking. Or do you mean when typing? "Young" (including me) people are two-thumbers and old people are phone in one hand, poke with the other people?

         @lain The SE / HK divide I think I told you about, it's when people switch back and forth between phone projecting from their mouth and phone projecting from their ear, because they believe they can hear better that way.

            @lain Another HK think is the speak into your hand thing. Super annoying. The people around you can't hear well what you are saying, fine. But the person on the other phone? Also cannot hear.

                           I simply don't believe this.

                              @lain I mean, I see why people would believe that, it makes sense, but there is a lot of magic design going on with waveforming and whatnot to make phones work really well in the traditional position. Phones are very well designed for being held like phones.
                              
                              But now I sound 100% like an old fart, so I'm done with this topic.

                                 @lain I actually get far less antsy when I see the blow smoke up the phone's ass position than when I see the cute girl whispering behind the hand position. Because I *know* the latter muffles the sound for the listener. And on top of that, I know the speaker overestimates the (believes there is any) amplification they get from their palm, so they speak too quiet.
