| So this afternoon while I was playing Kingdom Hearts II, the phone rang, and since I was the only one home, I picked it up. I'm still not really sure exactly what the person on the other end was trying to do.
He spoke barely understandable English, and asked for someone by the name of M [my last name] and apparently not realizing the concept of an initial, because he asked if M was there when I asked him to repeat himself. I couldn't understand exactly what he was trying to say, but it sounded like he was trying to sell me various types of medications over the phone. Or something. I have absolutely no idea, and eventually I got sick of his making no sense and probably trying to get me to buy something and hung up. All I have to say is: wtf? |

| Yeah... Ive gotten something like that before...
Except it was on my cell... And they referenced me by first name (Probably because of my answering message)... And... it was... two minutes of obscene stuff  |

How funny, he thought your last name was "M" 
Haven't had that happen, but I have gotten plenty of calls from people selling various crap that I have no interest in. |

Is your baby coming home today? |

Originally posted by Desert Eagle Danielle Well, actually, no, he was probably calling for my mother, whose first name starts with M...what I posted as "[my last name]" was that he knew the right last name but I didn't want to post it on the boards. |

| It was the FBI.
Or maybe it was a from telemarketer who has Engrish (sic) as a second language. In any case, no need to worry. Unless it was the FBI.  |

| I've gotten calls where someone was just breathing into the phone. I usually say some quiet things, wait a minute, and then yell really loudly really suddenly and hang up.
I hope I give someone a heart attack one day, they deserve it for not saying anything. |

You shouldn't do that to me, Dracoon! I just couldn't find the right words to say, that's all! |

| If this is just a sarcastic remark or a joke: You shouldn't call me then, etc etc etc.
If this is a secret lover coming out of the cloest:  I'm sorry... When I was born, I didn't have a choice... I was born and as I was raised, I noticed I was different. While some guys enjoyed looking at some people, I enjoyed looking at different people...
That's right... I'm so sorry Skydude... I know it must be hard, but... I'm straight. |

| Remember, you don't really want to kill yourself, so make sure you scratch instead of cut. You're just looking for attention, just make it LOOK like you're cutting, don't actually do it. | |||

| Alright, well, don't joke about that. A few people close to me cut, and it's a rather touchy subject. | |||

| I'm used to be a magnet for weird ass calls.
Now, not so. I do get the silent calls though. Bothers me a bit. Sometimes if i am close to my computer I blast music into the phone just to spite the person who called me. |

Originally posted by Sniper Skydude Yeah, I have a friend that does it, but I think I might be a cruel, heartless, evil bastard. |

| Best time ever was when my ex-friend had to switch phones. Right next to his other phone, he had to hang up the other phone first (since it was a different phone line and I only have on phone line). He said he would call right away.
Hangs up. I hang up. A second later the phone rings with a telemarketer on the other end. She tried to see if my mom was home. I said no. She asked when she was going to be home. I said never and hung up. THAT was hilarious. Eh, after watching that ABC special that my history teacher brought in, it doesn't shock me that some guy from India tried to sell you something... |

| Maybe he was some Columbian guy trying to sell you some cocaine or hookers over the phone. Rofl.
Some people mistake me for a guy named 'Arnold'. Some dude woke me up from a good sleep. 11pm during a weeknight... Rain was pouring like crazy. Some guy: "Arnold, I REALLY need your help, I'm in an accident on Ih-35 near Judson..." Me (tired): "Ughwha? Who? I think you have the wrong number sir, sorry." Some guy: "Ohhhh... okay, thanks!" -5 minutes later Same dude: "Arnold? You there? Oh man, it's so nasty out here! I need help! If you could come by real qui..." Me (tired and kinda frusterated): "No, sorry. I'm afraid it's the same wrong number!" Same dude: "Oh, I am SO sorry! Thankyou!" -Yet another 5 minutes... Him again: "Hey Arnold! I think my leg is bleeding a bit, if you could come by and pick me up I would very much appreciate it..." Me (very tired and frusterated): "Hey pal, you want a hint? Try calling 911 and please stop calling me." The dude: "Oh really? Are you sure you're not Arnold?" Me: "YES!" The dude: "Oh okay then, see ya soon Arnold!" |

| I got one damn weird sound message once. I checked it out and just heard a lot of noise in the background. Didnīt recognize the number either.
So I called it up and got to an answering machine with a middle-aged woman with foreign accent speaking. I just hung up and wondered wtf that was about. |

| I have never gotten a call quite like that one. But yeah, I have gotten some strange ones. I like to screw with them though...
Not so much telemarketers, they're just doing their job. Mainly wrong numbers, friends, and the annoying telemarketers. Like answering the phone as if it were say... Little Ceaser's. Or picking up the phone and just starting a conversation from the middle like I was expecting them. My favorite is the wake trick... or something like that. Answer the phone crying or distraught. As soon as they mention whoever's name, get worse... cry more, moan or something and explain that that person is dead/died recently. Fun Stuff |
