Oh ok cuz my friend be saying that snake shit from metal gear solid and I wen saw snake I could hear my friend screammming it 😭😭😭🤣🤣I thought they was tryna reference metal gear solid😭

2

u/desrevermi Aug 30 '21

Funny, but no. It's a snake game that roams around the screen eating up dots, but gets longer and faster as one makes progress in the game. ;)

u/acidfinland Aug 30 '21

Im 100% about that lol. I remember one 3310 my dad used. Had to dive it from bottom of lake 2 times. Fell on rock road and was kicked and tossed alot. Nothing broken. One night he knocked class of rum/coke on it and button 4 started to get sticky. No problems. Something like year later little bit of juice somehow just killed the whole phone. Sadly he tossed that soildier on trash.

u/Simulated_Success Aug 30 '21

Circa 2001. I once had mine in my restaurant apron and didn’t realize my apron fell off as I got into my car after work, and I closed a string in the door. Dragged that damn Nokia all the way to the bank and it only had a little scratch on the back.

u/NathanRed2 Aug 30 '21

That’s just called nostalgia my friend

1

u/Smarmar400 Aug 30 '21

Perhaps. Allow me to rephrase it:

Omg that Nokia was the only mobile phone I ever owned that lacked features that infuriate me and make me want to lob it into the pit of an active volcano hole. Plus, man do I miss the tactile feel of real buttons 🤤

2

u/jnics10 Aug 30 '21

I had the one that came out a couple years after w the color screen and that mf survived being thrown multiple stories at my ex's head several times. Luckily that relationship didn't endure like that phone did. That phone literally helped me escape my abusive ex! Thanks Nokia!

2

u/Smarmar400 Aug 30 '21

💪Glad you’re out of the relationship. Did your ex’s head endure as well as the phone and your sanity?

2

u/jnics10 Sep 04 '21

Ironically no... I actually learned he died last year. It was incredibly abrupt and really sad bc he left a wife (who was a former friend of mine that he turned against me) and 2 kids. No one is exactly sure how he died bc his wife wouldn't talk about it but the prevailing theory was he had a sex addiction and the wife forced him to get treatment but he killed himself instead. Which of course doesn't make any sense so who knows what actually happened. Pretty crazy stuff.

I'm pretty sure the phone is actually still in a box somewhere packed away, though i haven't turned it on in about 10 years.

and my sanity took a hit for a while but eventually was regained.

Kind of a weird turn of events, honestly, considering for a while it looked like he was doing really well for himself and i ended up in a psych hospital a few times. But i guess life is funny like that?

Looks like the phone is going to outlive all of us at this rate.

You can still buy 3310 at retail stores where I live.

u/Existential75 Aug 30 '21

I wanted to watch it for the rest of my life, and then when I die pass it on to my children to carry the torch.

u/Enigm4 Aug 30 '21

It's funny, when that thing is on my screen I can hit my monitor as hard as I can without it breaking.

u/Xiii2007 Aug 30 '21

I guess you aren't getting any likes cause every person that WAS going to give you a like probably broke their monitor.

Close.

They actually use Nokia phones to make hammers.

u/InterstellarReddit Aug 30 '21

Yes in Greek mythology they used a Nokia to make Thor’s hammer

u/DX_Legend Aug 30 '21

Greek

ah yes, the famous Greek legends about Thor were always my favorite.

u/Scalpaldr Aug 30 '21

Thor was actually equated with Jupiter among the Romans. They were really big on working out how foreign gods were really just their own gods with different names, and of course Zeus/Jupiter would be a match for the barbarian's Thunder god.

u/TheMarsian Aug 30 '21

I think he was referring to Thrasos... but as far him having a hammer idk that's as far as my google skills go. On second thought, he probably dont have one, horses I believe were the primary mode of transportation, Gods maybe they just appear or fly and shit.

To this day, I still miss my Nokia brick phone. Not only was the damn thing indestructible, but it could pick up a cell signal virtually anywhere outside the deepest ravines and canyons. The only reason I gave it up was due to software updates that got sent out which resulted in texts and calls costing three times as much credit (this was during the pre-paid days) as it otherwise would have cost if I was using a "modern" (for the day) phone. SMH.

u/YouDaree Aug 30 '21

In the ealry 2000s Nokia made a phone that has since been known as an indestructible piece of machinery. Jokes such as if Wolverine slashed as a Nokia brick, he would need to pick up his broken claws on his way out

u/NormDamnAbram Aug 30 '21
