BREAKING NEWS: Red Telephone Box Still Doesn't Accept Texts

In a shocking turn of events, the iconic British red telephone box has once again failed to connect to Wi-Fi, send a selfie, or even play Spotify. Locals were baffled when a tourist tried to "airdrop" a phone call into the box by standing inside and yelling "Hey Siri."

"I thought it was a vintage charging station," said confused Instagrammer Chloe, 22, while trying to plug her iPhone into the coin slot.

Witnesses report the phone inside rang once last week—only to be answered by a confused pigeon.

Government officials confirmed the box is now mostly used for:

Dramatic rain-soaked phone calls in indie films

Teenagers hiding from responsibilities

Emergency costume changes for time-traveling aliens

In related news, the phone box was last disinfected in 1983. Scientists call it a "living museum of germs and nostalgia."
