funkychick2007 Posted February 14, 2021 Report Share Posted February 14, 2021 Got to say Ive never been this happy to hear there are so many pricks around!! 🤣🤣🤣👍🏻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philipsteak Posted February 15, 2021 Report Share Posted February 15, 2021 Speaking of pricks, I just managed to annoy a scam caller so much he called me back, twice! I've managed to get one to call me back before (and tbh that one was more fun, he was so so angry) but twice is a new personal best Actually, now I think about it, I should have kept him on the line longer. Just nice to talk to someone different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrshire Chris Posted February 15, 2021 Report Share Posted February 15, 2021 Been watching Glasto on telly and feeling really really really positive about 2022. Wonder what gate Michael will be at to usher in the first folk onto the farm? We all need to keep the faith, it will happen, this time next year we will be absorbed with who is playing, what tent we will use, the resale, the weather etc, all those things we took for granted for years. Just can’t wait but a bit of living still to do before it happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's giving people the freedom to post consequence-free puns, without fear of recrimination. I broke through that barrier many years ago and became a man with no name and no shame, a punslinger roaming the badlands, but so many more have been constrained by fear. Seeing so many of my brothers and sisters now with the confidence to fire off dreadful jokes is a joyous thing.

Just nice to talk to someone different. Love that. I used to wind up the 'this is Microsoft' scammers by having the world's slowest booting pc, would then act computer dumb until they said 'what can you see on the screen?'

The game with them was to see how dark/weird/rambling I could get before they hung up. One told me off for being really sick once. Now it tends to be the unpaid tax/arrest warrant ones. Think this guy was new cos he told me to find a pen and paper. That 'took' a very very long time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, if it's a straight cold call then I've never done it. Although I honestly can't remember the last time I had one of those. If its a bright, perky recorded message (or a dark, ominous, serious recorded message) that then links through to a call centre in India with 'Alan' or Rachael' then all bets are off. They're scammers, so fuck 'em. Even if it's the only job they can get, they are still trying to scam people. And at least while they are listening to my bullshit, they aren't talking to someone who might fall for it. Plus, it amuses me and I'm furloughed and very bored Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
