I want a vintage rotary dial phone.

I have a yearning to use a heavy, old, black telephone, like you see in a classic movie. I want the corded kind of phone, with a rotary dial, that's the one. That would make my phone calls feel so much more engaging. I would feel swept into a vintage realm, the kind of time when Bogart and Bacall premiered. I may need a red phone too. That's the one the president would have used long ago, if he might need to defuse any risk of nukes between Washington and Moscow. I'm nostalgic for a time before I was born. Strange deja vu. About that phone, is that normal?

    Yes. I remember using them back in the day. They were a bit outdated at the time but I always liked them. And candlestick phones.

    I just love all old things in general.

    Anyone ever use the cheeseburger phone?

        Haha remember the big lips? And the clear phone. Oh how I miss those curly wire days.

    Those phones were great! Made every call seem more important somehow.
