      Ikr! And it's a massive problem when you're applying for jobs/mark yourself as looking on job portals. You get random 'cold calls', and these are interviews.. completely random, unscheduled..with the caller having the upper hand in the conversation by virtue of being the interviewer + the caller + the conversation starter + having the advantage of this being what she/he does for a living....plus!..it isn't even a proper to and fro conversation.. it's questions, multiple questions, and you're supposed to answer well. This calling thing and me being shy (till I break the ice) is so annoying! Like, you're not dumb, you're just shy and struggling with the awkwardness. But you come across as dumb and lose out.
      Even with friends who aren't that close, I let the phone ring, mentally prepare myself for the conversation, about what I can possibly talk about, etc..apart from thinking 'why are they calling'!..and thinking of multiple possible reasons why..

      How can you "literally" unplug something?
      Do you mean,
      you can unplug it?
      You can go your entire life without using the word literally, it's an unnecessary word,
      you especially shouldn't use it
      considering you clearly have no idea of it's meaning.
      If you are not using metaphors or similies,
      just say what you mean.
      Don't say "literally,"
      it just exposes your obvious linguistic limitations.

No one my age uses it, and the only video chats I've ever been in have been with my grandparents who live in China (initiated by them) and those calls usually make me want to shoot myself. Phone calls are also horrible- we usually use social media to communicate. The only use I can think of for video chatting is with a long distance romantic partner.
