Jesse Thompson said on 12/01/06 @ 11:45 AM: I always used to say "Actually, that sounds awsome! oh, wait, call on the other line. Do you mind holding?" To which they would always cheerily answer "yes" and then I'd just conference them into a 1-800 phone sex line. Then again, diversionary tactics don't work anymore since the other end of a telemarketing call is always a voice recording now anyway.

They asked me if it was a bad time to talk, becuase my niece was crying loudly in the background. I said no, she is simply mourning over her dead father, we need to call one of those suicide clean up services soon, she asked me if i had any children, i told her two of them ran away, then she asked me if i wanted to donate money, surprised that she was STILL ON THE LINE i told her that we had just spent the rest of your money on toilet paper, and then I hung up... Hahaha -BobbiLynn May BobbiLynn May said on 12/18/06 @ 11:35 AM: She knew because she was laughing like REALLY quietly in the background while i was talking Hahaha -BobbiLynn May Post a comment |
