This is a QotW answer Phone Magic
While dossing as a student in Manchester, lived next door to a family who invited me round to admire their new phone (??) They couldn't figure out why there was a red button on the handset which lit up every time the phone rang.

I gave them the benefit of my university-educated insight.

"It must be for deaf people!"

Cue baffled silence.
