I was a teenager in the early 60’s when phones were connected to an outlet. Well, mom got tired of me being on the phone for too long and she ‘pulled the plug’ in the hallway while I was in my bedroom.
This conversation is typical no matter what the generation—-fashion, hair, problems with teachers who are trying to decrease your ignorance, etc. I’ve heard it through three generations of girls and, except for minor details, it never changes. Of course, most eventually grow out of it, thank goodness!
Didn’t bother to skip all the verbiage which I knew was nonsense. Just skipped to the punchline. I don’t red comics for clutter, I can get that in real life,
My friend’s wife did a lot of work with native American peoples. She was also a psychologist, a masseuse and a political organizer. She spent so much time tele-talking that my friend gave her an “Indian name”: Talks on Two Phones

I think I now know why Bernice barely pays attention to Luann whether she’s talking. ;)

The censor must have cut out the panel where she talked about boys. You know that she did ’cause teen aged girls always do.

All natural redheads really have orange hair.

Without understanding social studies, the social contract isn’t picked up.
Regarding talking about people behind their backs: “Mr Green, she’s talking about you behind your back!”
“Good. As long as I don’t know it, I don’t worry about it.”
About the noon checkout:
Our son was about to be tested for high IQ. They scheduled for nine or ten in the morning.
“Any questions or comments?”
“Uh, yeah. He doesn’t DO mornings. But that’ll be fine. He’ll do well anyway.”
“What if he DOESN’T do well?”
“Obviously the test must be flawed.”
“We’ll reschedule for one pm.”
187 as I recall. Probably not actually THAT smart, but there’s more than one way for an IQ test to be flawed.
