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.
Abusive, yes, but as far as I’m aware not violent. Still fits (calling 911 as per the post), but not for physical abuse.
He has been known to publicly harass and threaten (it’s why he was barred from the Grammy awards), he’s been sued by employees for harassment, intimidation, retaliation,and discrimination, and even failure to pay his employees, and he’s also being sued by his former personal* assistant for sexual harassment, including him masturbating in front of her.
Kanye is 100% an abusive PoS. Just not, as of now, physically abusive afaik.
Edit: Stupid autocorrect typo personally/personal
Edit 2: Some violence

Second article starts with an amazing line:

They’re referring to when someone experiencing domestic abuse calls 999 and pretends to order a pizza, when really that’s a signal to the police that they need help.
Pro tip: look up your local police station and dial their full 10 digit phone number instead of 911
One, seven, three, four, six, seven, three, two, one, four, seven, six, Charlie, three, two, seven, eight, nine, seven, seven, seven, six, four, three, Tango, seven, three, two, Victor, seven, three, one, one, seven, eight, eight, eight, seven, three, two, four, seven, six, seven, eight, nine, seven, six, four, three, seven, six.

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.
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.
Who’s “they?” I recall my telco stopping support in the '90s, and we had to upgrade all the phones in the house.
May of been original to the house in the 60’s, this wall mount still worked until house sold in '09.
And is germaine
