    Ah, so it’s like Discord’s sound board feature.

    …except that on a Discord call, this type of silliness is expected. If I heard that “Sad Trombone” soundbite on a regular call I’d be stunned

      Can I spam trombone sounds at a telemarketer, straight from the call?

        Congratulations, I think you’ve just found the one and only justification for this waste of engineer hours feature.

          It really is these types of features that make me question how the world works. Why are programmers in such high demand as to command massive salaries, but then also have time to produce things like this?
