Today, while working customer service, I instructed a customer to press the pound key on her cellphone. She hesitated a moment before asking, "Um, the pound key? You mean the hashtag, right?" FML

Oh No. It proves the world really is getting stupider. Kidding. Times are changing. Now I really feel old.

As long as I can recall which is a long damn time I've know it as the pound key.

Well I have known it as the hash key for as long as I can remember which is an even longer time.

Just suddenly end the conversation. You lose your job? So what? You will be just one more person who stops sustaining this idiotic generation... ******* shit, I'm in IT and still I have no idea what a hashtag does (besides irritating me).

Also, as a sidenote, when the ******* hell did this world stop communicating using sentences?

I never knew what the pound key was. Always viewed it as the number symbol.

Pound key = £. Hash key = #. Don't see why this is an fml really. Anyway, pounds have existed far far longer than the US has ;)

That's so funny. I had no idea hash tag was so popular in other countries. I still can't bring myself to say it. Guess I'll always be down for the pound.
