I think this meme is about the old story of calling 911 and pretending to order a pizza. This was a viral story almost a decade back and stayed in social media platforms as a real thing. However this widespread social media publicity actually helped a victim. Details are in the previous link. This worked only because the operator was aware about the internet lore and was able to connect it.
In summary don’t do it. Operators will disregard your call.
If you do have to do it, you can hit 1234 or any other 4 digits after the 911 and you will still be connected to emergency services.
Source: accidentally called 911 when trying to make an international call and not understanding when the phone system needed the 9 prefix (only for internal extensions).
I don’t think they’d completely disregard your call. At least in the UK there are procedures to seeing whether or not an emergency call is erroneous or not. In a lot of cases they will end up ringing back before sending someone to check the location if one is called but there is no response on the other end
What?
The image depicts a know violent asshole. The wife is not calling the Pizza place but instead calling 911.
Pizza place?
Pizzaz Palace
She’s calling to order a pizza but dials 911 instead
There was this thing where a woman pretended to order pizza but actually called 911 on her abusive husband.
Pro tip: look up your local police station and dial their full 10 digit phone number instead of 911
or mute your phone and mime typing more than you are

So wait the down voting 13% beat their spouse or something?
Downvoting in general confuses me so often. There are times where a simple stated a fact, not even something controversial, will be downvoted. I’m like, who goes around just downvoting at random? The most recent one I recall is someone saying that everyone comes back to life in fighting games and I pointed out that Kliff from Guilty Gear never came back and I got downvoted for that. Like what??? I was hoping to get some replies and have a decent conversation there, but my comment got hidden due to the downvotes.
Could be accidental down votes. I mean half the upvotes I give are an accidental tap lol.
I rarely downvote, yet I keep seeing posts and comments marked as downvoted by my account. Seems it’s just very easy to fatfinger it and not notice.
On my app I have to hold on the comment to reply or downvote. I can upvote easily but downvoting can’t really be unintentional.
Idk about lemmy but on Reddit up/down are for relevance not whether you like something
It’s a shit ass joke, but i HAVE to upvote it, because i’m against violence at home. What a normal take.

Whoever made this meme is too young to have experienced “dialing” a phone number.
It is still called dialing despite no longer being rotary phones, but also, they didn’t end the ability to use rotary phones until like 2005ish. I’ve used one before they ended it and I still have one that I wish I could use! Never know, OP could be like me lol.
Dialed and typed is the same thing (?)
Oof I was hoping this was a joke about ordering a pizza from an app and the spouse didn’t like that they were only entering the security code and not the whole card number… Because the joke is about having the credit card saved. :(
I haven’t heard anything about this fella in a minute. Is he still championing Trump while spouting random hate/nuttiness?
Who cares what this living example for why you should take your meds has to say?
I feel like all this attention it brought him only amplified his mental disorders. I sincerely hope that he is getting the help he clearly needs and that the media will leave him alone for the sake of his sanity.
Who is this guy?
Kanye West, the disgraced former shoe salesman and dinner companion of Holocaust-denier Nick Fuentes
