hmm. i cant agree with this as a person who does phone calls and then sees people in real life. i guess there is a market for facetimers like yourself that i must respect. if you care that much about appearing properly on a video call with grandma, sure let apple redraw your eyeballs haha. The only people accustomed to talking to people who are looking at each other's necks are the people who live on the cell phone.
Like the girl who was doing a video facetime call on her cell phone all the way from waiting at the gate , boarding, sitting on plane. Call me an old grumper if you want, downvote if you want. but damn , da fugg is the deal get off my lawn with your video chats kids.
- Ajedi32 7y agoI don't see your point. Is your argument "I don't use this feature, therefore it shouldn't exist"?
- aksss 7y agoI think you missed his point (whether it's strong or not). He's saying there's an irony in the idea of focusing on proper appearance to the person on the phone when the boundaries of what's appropriate for loud speakerphone calls in a public environment have been lowered too far. Like worrying about whether you look nice while walking off a cliff. I think that's the point, whether one agrees with him or not.
- retpirato 7y agoThere's a difference between having the opinion that "I don't use it, so it shouldn't exist" & I don't have a problem as long as the people who use it aren't obsessed with it. Honestly I'm not sure which opinion brootstrap holds, but he's entitled to it either way. For those who can't stand selfies/facetiming there's a perfect song from Brad Paisley called "selfie":https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rGlcScJ0lE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rGlcScJ0lE
