I blame
eloise_bright for getting me hooked again on
secretary_rpg. I start catching up just in time for the shit to hit the fans. *sniffles* Wes and Faith! Waaaaaaaaaaaah!!
On a slightly more cheerful note, I also have
caytlyn to thank for coming up with this meme-y thing. It's still under construction, so any help and suggestions are gratefully received.
101 Ways To Get Rid of Unwanted Calls
101.) Wolfram and Hart answering service routine... 'You have reached ritual sacrifice. For goats, press one, or say "goats." To sacrifice a loved one or pet, press the pound—'
100.) Answer the phone with silence and/or heavy breathing, Darth Vader style.
99.) Pick up and just hold a number key down to make that long beeping noise...
98.) Pick up the phone, while yelling, "Yes, yes, YES!"... See if they get the hint ;)
97.) Act drunk. A classic, but fun nonetheless. Just be sure to be more original than the 'I swear to drunk I'm not god, you shilly sit. I'm sotally tober.' Exercise creativity, and come up with something new.
96.) Go, 'Bored now,' and hang up.
95.) Keep insisting you don't want Tupperware. They'll keep trying to insist that they're not SELLING Tupperware, and this way, you get them nice and frustrated.
94.) Learn how to say 'Filthy manwhore!' in a demonic language. Even if they don't understand, maybe they'll get the gist anyway. Or learn Klingon...
93.) Answer in an overly cheerful voice- 'Hi... I knew you'd call right now! The god Zeus told me so... who are you again?" Or whichever god/deity you want.
92.) Another answering-phone ploy: 'You have reached the psychiatric hotline! Please press one repeatedly if you are obsessive compulsive. If you are codependent, please ask someone to press two for you. Press 3,4, and 5 if you have multiple personalities. If you are paranoid, we know who you are and what you want. We are tracing the call, and coming to get you. If you are schitzophrenic, wait and listen, and a little voice will tell you what to do next.'
91.) If someone calls and mispronounces your name, you insist that there is no one there by that name. Which is technically true.
90.).... no idea. Any suggestions?
