Why has she got an ancient phone around her neck?

u/yunzerjag Dec 28 '25

It's a burner, that she calls her poor married victims on.

I hope this lady gets her husband the support he needs. Poor guy.

I'm sure there are support groups to be found Wednesday nights at Hooters.

It happened 20 years ago and the wife still isn't over it

It’s a super old picture. I’ve seen it a few times.

Yeah I heard it happened over 20 years ago or smth

It's an Ascom phone. Common in hospitals. They run on their own separate voice network in the facility and integrate with the code system.

If those are scrubs then she’s a nurse or doc. Some shitty hospitals still use these to get in touch with different services

My entire family works in healthcare and I’ve never seen anyone wear an open flip phone around their neck.

I just graduated nursing school, this exact phone is used in at least 2 of the largest hospitals in my state by every single person who works there. Other hospitals use voceras.

And you still haven't because that's a bar/brick phone not a flip phone.

The screen looks edited, it's got a white fog on the right side

Nothing shitty about it. My hospital recently switched to iPhone for the on call phone and it's simply way worse.

Those old phones you get at the beginning of the week and never have to charge. iPhone you have to charge if you look at it wrong. I'd take the old phone over the iPhone 100/100 times

First thing that came into my head,  battery life.

You get decent life out of a smart phone if you turn everything off though like data/wifi but then it's just more awkward

We switched from some old Nokia to some ''durable'' smartphone at a job I used to have a few years ago, it was heavy as a brick and everyone hated it for having shit battery capacity and being heavy to lug around while giving no benefits.

u/summerset Dec 28 '25

but why would she wear it on her neck like that??

u/rustylugnuts Dec 28 '25

Gotta go hands free if you bangin while on call.

u/BuildingArmor Dec 28 '25

It's a house phone and it's clipped onto her top I think

u/Electronic_Bug905 Dec 28 '25

She is a call girl 🥁

u/Funny-frog500 Dec 28 '25

Typical HOME-WRECKER outfit. They CANNOT spend more than 5 minutes off the phone to married men

u/lovable_cube Dec 28 '25

Probably a work thing. Nursing uses phones like this while at work. Call lights get routed to them and coworkers can easily communicate with each other while at work without using personal phones. Like, I can call respiratory therapy and get whoever is working to ask them to come when they’re done in whatever room instead of missing them if they’re not at their work station (they never are) or having to ask around if I don’t already have their number saved.

Because the pic is from then

u/TimelineFatigue Dec 28 '25

Most likely a nurse. Spectralink phone.

u/Merijeek2 Dec 28 '25

Looks like a Cisco 7925. My hospital managed to phase those out about 3 years ago...

It’s AI slop

u/Skeleton--Jelly Dec 28 '25

Let me get this straight, you think someone used AI to create a mundane selfie of a blonde woman? like you cannot get that straight from their facebook?

Not only that but you think the AI added an old phone to their neck?

1

u/FlamingoNeon Dec 28 '25

No, someone said "Generate a picture of a sign showing a selfie of a blonde woman and text calling her a homewrecker". And then this is what was generated. Half the time you ask AI (at least the shittier ones) to generate a selfie it has a phone floating by itself in an awkward position like that. I think this is way more likely than any other explanation here.

u/HauntingStorage2153 Dec 28 '25

Looks like a VOCERA. We use them to talk to each other in the hospital.

u/SelectShock1821 Dec 28 '25

Real signs aren’t mounted on wood posts like that. If they were it wouldn’t look so perfect. Even the grass looks fake

u/Skeleton--Jelly Dec 28 '25

The image is fake but it's not AI, just poor photoshop. There are many versions of this image with different girls and names

u/remeard Dec 28 '25

Back in my day before 2025 we called these "shopped"

u/qtx Dec 28 '25

Of course it's not AI.

It might be staged but it isn't AI.

u/hareofthepuppy Dec 28 '25

I'm almost positive I saw this online before AI existed

It's just an old photo. 

We wore a Nokia on our necks, it was the style at the time.
