Modern day phone etiquette: it is impolite to call someone on non-urgent personal business without arranging it.

I think the spam phone calls are to blame. I receive a ton of them and I hate it. Thankfully, most of them filtered out automatically.

I never answer my phone.

If it was non urgent, the person calls once, gets mad for a short while and forgets about calling.

If it was urgent, I'd get more calls, texts, email, video call, knock at the door, mail by post, telegram, stones thrown at my window, smoke signals, naval flash lights in Morse code, carrier pigeons with messages, foxes with messages, police at my door, the local priest at my door, an overhead blimp with a giant sign, an acrobatic aircraft writing a message in the sky or a brick with a piece of paper with a message thrown threw my living room window.

I bet that's why the polls were so off in the election
