Speaking as one who regularly shoves her phone into her bag upon entering an AA meeting I have managed to send a random gif or possibly two in a group chat or message that I was messaging in. I've also once or twice messaged a random string of letters. I have never managed to do either or both to separate chats/people.
HOWEVER. When every single meeting opens you are asked to turn your phone off or at least to silent (not DND because then your Favourites will still ping through though granted those people are most likely to know you are at that moment in an AA meeting). Even if, like me, your phone is almost always on DND, 99% of the room checks their phone anyway because there is almost nothing worse in a meeting than being interrupted by a phone!
I realise none of this needs explaining really.

. I tried to explain the joke, but I don't think they got it. I had to stop before I started talking about Georgia church suppers and velveeta
