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.
That was what I call sticking with the bit.
Brilliant fucking work right there. You know they were writing all that out and just cackling with every response.
I’m just amazed nobody seemed to catch on until the end
Anyone who caught on would either go along with it or just watch the show. 12000 notes suggest a whole bunch of likes and reblogs.
Oh, I’d have definitely joined in. I see something like that, and it’s like smelling cookies baking, you just gotta get in there and enjoy it.
Now THIS is trolling!

Yeah, that’s not very typical. I’d like to make that point.
