    And Again

    SC: “Yeah I wanna know about your training classes”
    Me: “I’m afraid you have the wrong number.”
    SC: “Oh….is there any way you have the right number?”

    Oh, of course. There are many ways I have the right number. The aforementioned omni-sentience, witchcraft, voodoo, runic divination, precognition, possibly some sort of cyborg hivemind. However, I do not technically possess any of these ways. So no, I do not have this “right number” you speak of. ( And no, I can’t connect you to it either. Fuck off. ).

        I never thought I’d have to ask this question in a literal sense but: What planet are you from? And don't say Endor, I'm not falling for that. Even Ewoks were smart enough for simple tool use.

        I guess that makes two of us now that are aware you couldn't please a Fruit Loop.
        Ouch, that was just cruel and unusual punishment. You realize that among your legion of fans, some of them may just eat fruit loops? I doubt anyone will look at them the same way after this post!

              I could answer this in a myriad of ways, many of them obvious to you, but instead, I'd rather let my friends from Harvey Danger answer it for me. Take it away, boys....

              Stupid people breed. They always have, and they always will. Until we find a way to stop them. Frankly, I don't have that much free time on my hands.

              Charlotte, you say? Hmm….most curious. You don’t sound like a Charlotte. Unless it’s suppose to be Charlotte after the surgery. Otherwise, me thinks thou art deceiving me.
              Not so fast, my friend. I have been on this planet for quite some time, and I have met more than one person of the female persuasion whose voice would give Barry White a run for his money. Generally these are not the most attractive females, but they ARE females. Not everyone is blessed with a voice the instantly and proudly announces their gender. (Luckily, though, (*I* was.)

              Then go, find me this Charlotte. I will not hear her words through you. You have enough trouble with your own words. Fetch her, at once, I say.
              Out of curiosity, why does it matter to you if someone is using a name other than their own for an order? Just wondering.

              SC: “Like could you tell me where to go to get a vasectomy?”

              …….no, no I could not. In fact out of all of the knowledge currently possessed by the human race, “Where can I find someone to cut me in the groin” is the absolute lowest on my list of information I wish to possess. I could do quite well and live a rather happy life never, ever knowing that one little tidbit.
              Two points here. First, as many others have pointed out, considering some of your clientele, I would think you would want them to have this information readily available, and would yourself be more than happy to provide it. Secondly, one day you may actually decide you yourself want a vasectomy, if, for example, you decide that you don't want to father any miniature Gravekeepers. I myself have looked into this procedure in recent years, as I am quite happy being an uncle and, after dealing with three teenage nieces, have less than zero desire to ever be a father.

              Clearly this endeavour will be ultimately unsuccessful and you fully acknowledge this, yet you persist. Are you some sort of weird failure sadist?
              I should point out that if this person enjoys the pain of failure, they would in fact be a failure masochist. The people who enjoy bringing the pain of failure to others would actually be failure sadists. People like IRS auditors and the creators of Jersey Shore.

              Gravekeeper, it would be a fine idea to develop contacts with surgeons in your area who perform vasectomies, handing out the information freely to anyone who asks for it. Just think how that would cut down on future torment from pants-obsessed idiots!
              I fear their is a major flaw to your theory, young lady. To wit, the fact that the vast majority of people who need to get vasectomies don't, and the vast majority of people who get vasectomies are not the people you wish wouldn't spawn.

              Case in point: I do not have children, do not plan to have children, and am seriously considering a vasectomy to ensure that end result. On the other hand, neither Sarah Palin's father nor her husband had a vasectomy. I rest my case.

                I should also point out that despite your feeble attempt here, profanity screamed by a squeaky 12 year old whose parents were clearly related is in no way intimidating. It’s actually kind of funny. Like being yelled at by one of Donald Duck’s nephews. And I’m sure amusing me wasn’t your objective here. Though, honestly, I’m not sure what your objective here is-

                -unless it is to inform me about the inadequate size of your masculinity? I wouldn’t think that’d be something you’d just want to throw out there at random like that. But very well.

                we get those kind of calls all the time at my pizza place. what I have learned is this the pranksters are either 8 or 10 years old or they are early 20's (with a good buzz on)

                the 8 year old call like clock work on Monday holidays, Thanksgiving weekend, spring break and at the beginning of the summer

                the 20 somethings are more variable in their time selection but most attempt the "deed" late on a Friday or Saturday after an evening of heavy drinking or smoking (non domestic substances)

                a lot of calls go something like this

                DAP - dumbass prankster wannabe
                ME - yeah yeah HOW MANY times do you think I have heard that one before????

                me - <standard greeting>
                DAP - <in a really really bad fake Asian accent> I WAAANNNNNAAAA Chineese pizza dewevwery

                me - <standard phone greeting>
                DAP - <in a really really bad getto black type accent> I WAAANNAAAAA pizza devered <N-word>

                and so on

                my standard answer is this (esp after the 2d or 3d call in less than 2 minutes and yes I do say this) "Why don't you ask a 6 year old for better pranks" <click> as I hang up on them. that usually shuts them up and gives them pause.

                some (though not all) of them are even smart enough to block their phone numbers so we can not do a *69 (code to find out the last incoming phone number) to find out the calling number. My manager got some 10 year old to cry after doing a *69 and getting a valid phone number, calling it back and threatening to call the cops aqnd tell his parents.

                    We've had a lot of problems with idiots ordering tons of crap and not paying for it ( Surprise, surprise ). So they get blacklisted and start trying to place orders in their grandmother's name or something. Thus we cannot allow them to place orders under someone else's name without speaking to that person to verify it. It'd be different if they were paying for it on their credit card. But all these orders are COD, remember.

                    That's true too, we did have one guy in particular that was blacklisted so he started trying to place orders in his grandmother's name. Enough operator's gave him the benefit of the doubt that maybe the Mrs just had a husky voice that he managed to get a couple more orders in and promptly failed to pay for those too. Then his uncle called us to warn us what the guy was up too.

                    So now we verify if there is even a shred of doubt. Since its a net loss for the client if they sent something via COD and it gets sent back.

                    Also, masochist? I guess I need to brush up on my sexual fetishes. -.-

                      No, no. It's only idiocy if a customer forgets something. With one of this site's members, it's more a combination of mental exhaustion, frustration and the physical strain of keeping the 'THAT'S IT, EVERYBODY DIES!!!' solution from surfacing.

                        Dude, at the rate you're going, next week it'll be a pack of weasels. ON FIRE. Start taking walks with Smith & Wesson. They don't say very much, but what comes out of their mouths is a total blast and it's guaranteed to repel even the most rabid of rovers.

                        All right, CSers, 'fess up. Whodunit? I know we all like effing with the heads of fools, but surely this reeks of the desperation borne of boredom...?

                        Do you really, honestly think your house is bugged? I mean, really? You really think that anyone has any sort of interest in anything you say or do? Because honestly, think about this for a second. I’m not a federal agent this or any other country or agency. I’m just the guy that stays awake in to take messages for them. I’m little more than a glorified secretary. And even I’m not interested in anything you say or do.
                        But you work for...THEM! And we all know THEY want to get our poor little SC and will use any means necessary. Including you, dear hapless GK.

                        If he is referring to "101 Uses For SC's" then he is correct, it would be VERY worthwhile indeed.

                        you just asked a complete stranger to find and connect you to that number. Instead of doing the proper thing. Which is apologizing, hanging up, and fucking yourself.

                          SC: “HERYAXGRUBLOOOK!!!!!!!!!!"

                          JESUS CHRIST?! What the fuck!? My god, what was that? What just happened? Everything was going fine. Everything was normal. Then I asked you another question and suddenly, EWOKS.

                          OH NO! Not EWOKS! ANYTHING but THAT!!!!

                            Put me in the hospital for nerves and then they had to commit me. You told them all I was crazy. They cut off my legs, now I'm an amputee...goddamn you.

                              This, and just this alone had me laughing so hard I couldn't finish reading the rest until at least 5 to 10 mins later. I'm not even remotely sure how long it took me to stop laughing because I wasn't measuring time accurately until the tears finished dripping off my face.

                              You are beyond epic.

                                I wonder if Ewoks are the hobbit version of Wookies?
