I’m perfectly capable of looking up the non-emergency number if I need it. I don’t need to carry it with me. And in my area, if I want to report most crimes, even if it’s a non-emergency like a car stolen, they direct me to call 911.

Of course I mean getting the number from the phone. I’m just old as fuck so I talk funny. 🤷🏼‍♀️

What I’m trying to say is we all have smartphones now so why can’t you just search the non emergency number if you need it?

That’s why I meant too. When I said look up the number, I meant use the smartphone to find the number. I haven’t used a phone book in I don’t know how many years. No one does.

How do you say find the number with the phone anyway? I guess I could say I can “google” the number instead of “look up” the number.
