Queen of comedy Bushra Ansari took to her vlog Delete With Love to deliver a damning verdict on phone etiquette: it’s three strikes and you’re out.
“If someone doesn’t pick up my call after the third time, I block and delete them,” she announced in unapologetic conviction.
That’s right. If Bushra’s loved ones have failed to answer her call three times in a row, she dusts her hands and without a hint of remorse, blocks and deletes their number from her phone.
Bushra stressed that these people aren’t banished from her life. Just from her phone. She conceded that the younger generation is plagued by endless distractions, and makes allowances for them, but cannot expect the older generation to be so waylaid. To Bushra, that third missed call is unforgiveable. It is a signal that she is not wanted, and she does both parties a favour by kicking them out of her phone.
