For those who don’t know:
Texts from iPhone to iPhone appear as blue bubbles, while texts from Android users appear as green.
For many in the US who still use SMS to communicate, the blue/green bubble divide is a huge source of social conflict.
So for people who live outside of the US, what’s your version of “if everyone knew this was a thing in my country, they’d think it was silly”?
You probably don’t interact with a lot of teens then. It’s pretty common in high schools and college campuses. I was told a decade ago that my green bubbles were probably why women stopped texting me after I got their number off okcupid
Bullet dodged
Oh, honey, that wasn’t why…
It was, I got laid plenty in college. I meant I would get a woman’s number, text her, then she would give 2/3 responses and disappear. It stopped almost entirely when I switched to asking for Snapchat instead
