That is pretty funny, but alas, I fear if I were to use that where I'm at, I'd never get any calls from women :lol:

Okay... that's a pretty good one :lol: I forgot that one, and I even watched the movie last holiday season lol.

It should be: "If you're telemarketer, spammer or especially a scammer, "I'LL HUNT YOU DOWN AND GUT YOU LIKE A FISH! If you'd like to fax me, press the star key."

Mynock wrote:When I moved into my first apartment the cable company, in a package deal kind of thing gave me a digital phone along with my TV and Broadband. They assigned me a number that I quickly learned used to belong to a guy name "Gary".

For two weeks I was getting calls from Gary's dentist about rescheduling an appointment, for some reason I just could not get through to this secretary chick (same one every time??!!!?) that this was not Gary's number anymore.

Finally I decided to get creative.
/phone rings
Me: Hello?
Her: Hi! This is So & So Dental calling! Is Gary home?
Me (doing my best Hannibal Lector impression): Gary? Hmmmm..... Gary.....Gary....oh yes. I remember Gary. He was delicious.
/hangs up phone.

Never called back again. :lol:


Priceless, simply priceless :lol: You should've added, "I still have his teeth if you'd like them? They're much too crunchy for me."

It was that scam where, if you go along with them far enough, they tell you they'll arrest you unless pay your "debt" to the government with a gift card from Walmart.

I was going to report it to authorities, but it had already been reported a gazillion times. It was on scam-alert websites plus, I'd seen this scam on the news too.

Asking to be put on the Do Not Call list doesn't work for obvious reasons.

So the next time they called, I went pure psycho. Hey, I have acting experience! You know, from doing quicksand videos!

They hung up on me. But I did that thing where you dial a couple digits and the last number that called you phone shows up. I dialed that number. In a little foreign accent they answered, "IRS" and I let loose a loud torrent of abuse, name-calling and obscenities.

They hung up. I called them again. They picked up and I called them every name I could think of between F-words until they cut me off by hanging up.

So I called again.

And they let it ring. It rang over and over again. I noted with smiling satisfaction that they had no answering machine at that number, so they were forced to listen to it ring...and ring...

...KNOWING what was on the other end.

I gave it, oh, 25, 30 rings, enough to let it really sink in, and then I hung up.

Days passed, and I did not hear from them.

I had made it to their Do Not Call.

Good for you Nessie! I would enjoy hearing a recording of that. I love watching people screw with telemarketers, spammers and scammers on YouTube, though, I’m slightly embarrassed to admit I’ve never had the courage to do something like that myself. I was swatted once so it’d be my luck they’d call the cops on me :? I just ignore numbers I don’t recognize.

It’s funny how this has turned into an all-out assault on telemarketers, spammers and scammers. Not exactly my original intention, but it sure is fun anyways :D

I like it! That’s actually surprisingly pleasant coming from Samuel L. Jackson. I almost didn’t understand him without all the swearing :lol:

I would like to have the Borg Greeting from Star Trek TNG, the full length version, something like:
"We are the Borg. Existence as you know it is at an end. Your technological and biological uniqueness will be added to our own. Resistance is futile. We are unable to assimilate you at the moment, but if you leave your name and number we will assimilate you on our return. Resistance is futile. PLease speak after the tone.We are the Borg".
"Aaaaaarrrrrrggggghhhhh! Quicksand! I'm sinking! I'll go straight to the bottom of.......GLURP!"
(a month later)
"Ugh! Yukkkh! Ptui! I'm out of it! I'm free! Not even quicksand can defeat the power of.....the Eye of Zoltec!"

Absolutely hilarious! :lol: Here's the message I would leave:

"Ummm, Mr. Borg? Hi, Theo here. Yeah… I Just wanted to let you know, I really don’t have ― any interest whatsoever in resisting. Earth… as you may know, has gone to hell, so I’m totally ready for whatever else is out there. To tell you the truth… please take me off this God forsaken planet! I’m knowledgeable in astronomy and orbital mechanics, and also quite proficient at Kerbal Space Program and Reentry so… I’m sure I can be of use to you somehow ― with a little additional training on your equipment. I'm a fast learner. Anyways, look forward to hearing from you ― oh, and you can also reach me at 867-5309. Thank you for your time Mr. Borg!"
