    Completely innocent.

    The only reason I don't step aside to avoid the lightening strike is I haven't had that happen to me yet so why the hell not?

    I once had a very interesting conversation with a phone solicitor. I don't remember it word for word, but here it goes to the best of my recollection.

    Me: Hello.

    Guy: Hi, we have a wonderful promotion going on right now and you are one of the lucky people that have been selected. You will receive the newspaper for free for 2 weeks, and after that we will cut the price in half for a month.

    Me: No thank you.

    Guy: But it's free for 2 weeks. If you decide you don't want it after the 2 weeks you can always cancel it. So can I get your name and address?

    Me: No thanks.

    Guy: But it's free. Don't you want to be able to have the paper, there are tons of wonderful articles and a crossword puzzle once a week, not to mention the tv listings. If you want you can cancel it after the 2 weeks. All I need is your name and address.

    Me: No thanks.

    Guy: Can I ask why?

    Me: You just did.

    Guy: But can you tell me why?

    Me: Sure I can, but I won't.

    Guy: But it's free!

    Me: Nothing is free.

    Guy: But it is free and you can cancel it before we start charging for it.

    Me: Then it's not free, because I'd have to go through the trouble of canceling it. It's not worth my time, so I repeat...no thanks.

    Guy: But it's free!

    Me: You know what you are?

    Guy: Pardon?

    Me: You're a rapist.

    Guy: WHAT!???

    Me: How many times have I said no and you still won't give up. No means no!

    Guy: You called me a rapist!

    Me: Well consider that my free opinion.

    :: click ::

    My work here is done. ;)

    LMAO :D you're a rapist :D,

    Note to self: must try this

    Me: (Korean) Uh, I'm sorry?
    Telemarketer: (Korean) You speak korean too?! My dad was Korean!!

    Morning, Nice Bear.

    I have had been dealing with these people that have been calling me ever since I signed up for their thing they had at my county fair. Big mistake signing up. My conversation went like this:

    Me: Hello

    Them: Yes, calling for Mr. Brock.

    Me: This is he

    Them: we are doing a follow up on your card that you filled out at the fair in your county and we see you wanted to update your windows.

    Me: yea, I guess.

    Them: well, we would like to come give you a free estimate for these.

    Me: Well, I really don't care about the windows as much now, how about the cabinetry or bathrooms?

    Them: What kind of windows do you have?

    Me: What?

    Them: What kind of windows do you have, how many paned, what kind of frame, how old?

    Me: I am not interested anymore.

    Them: when can we set up an appointment?

    Me: Tomorrow?

    Them: Ok, how about 6:30?

    Me: OK.

    Them: How about Thursday at 6:30?

    Me: OK, wait, no I don't want to, I will just cancel everything.

    Them: we really need to give you this free estimate, when can we do it?

    Me: how about Thursday then?

    Them: OK.

    Me: Wait, no I do not want to do this, just withdraw me from everything, I am done.

    Them: Sir, this is a good offer and we need to do this estimate for you.

    Me: Well, maybe, no. I am going to pass.

    Them: Well when would be a good time to reschedule.

    Me: I will do it on my own time. Thank you goodbye.


    Drove me crazy. Sorry this is so long.

    Hmm. If that's a choice I would get a car. Transportation opens more doors.

    Hey adam I had a dream you were taking me to the movies. I super liked you and wanted to go so bad. But unky was going with us and I was really upset over that because I was hoping for some... well some time alone. Then I kept thinking why would you like me I am 37 and it was so weird. I was so crushing on you babe! Wait was that a dream?
