 This is legit. 3*3 = 9. Just dial 333333. 
 Wouldn't that be three times three, three times?πŸ€”

3+3+3 (i.e. 9)
3+3+3 (i.e. 9)
3+3+3 (i.e. 9)

 No. That's not how this device works. Please reference your husband manual. 
 As a long-time husband myself (now in my sixth decade of husbandry), I reserve the inalienable right to NOT RTFM (Read The Fine Manual) in order to support and maintain that sacred right as a representative of husbands everywhere...😜

I of course prefer to call upon my inexhaustible supply of "husband knowledge," and, failing that, trial and error is my friend.πŸ€”πŸ‘πŸ˜†

 Thanks for the congrats, BT, No, not yet...πŸ™πŸ»πŸ˜†

"50+" was my deliberately vague way of saying "More than 50, but less than 60."πŸ˜ƒ

How long for you and your missus?πŸ€” Your comments here on nostr make me think you two have a really good thing going.πŸ™πŸ»πŸ˜€πŸ’œπŸ«‚πŸ’–πŸ˜†πŸ‘

 Gotcha! We're 20 years together, 18 married.  
 Friend, stay the course!
It's worth any and all of the difficulties you may encounter.πŸ˜†πŸ‘

 Absolutely. The Proof of Work is worth it.

 You need to press 3 333 times, I think you misread the manual. If you go over by just 1, you will have to press until the 32 bit counter overflows. 
 "Why are you having such a hard time with this? It's perfectly clear."

That's always the follow-up to some rambling mansplaining. πŸ˜‚

 At least you have an emergency line to call... 😎 
 Thank you for recognizing and acknowledging my obvious seniority in this matter.πŸ™πŸ»πŸ˜œπŸ’œπŸ«‚πŸ’–πŸ˜†πŸ‘ 
 How's your grilling? 
 Ah, I fear you've finally caught me out...

I'll just have to grit my teeth, grab some tongs and an apron, and fake it on this one...πŸ”ͺπŸ”₯😳
