So when Alvarado asks his two children to do the same thing, the gesture they offer is different: they simply flatten their palms against their ears, as though they’re talking on a smartphone.
The video has been viewed more than two million times, and many viewers expressed their shock at the sudden realization that what was once a classic gesture is now as obsolete as the phones it simulates. “I just asked my kids and ... I am officially old,” one person concluded. “I realized my son doesn’t know why I say ‘Hang up the phone,’” said another.
When the video was shared on Twitter, one person even recreated the experiment with their own children, and called it “an educational moment.” I feel like this is an educational moment. My sis just sent me a post of a father asking his kids to make a hand gesture holding a phone. Funniest morning moment - to realize 🤙🏿 is no longer acceptable. Try it with the youth around you! Experiment time!!!
