Phoney phone calls

*hyperventilates*

It's Sunday morning- who the heck calls so early except..."Robbie"

I answer my phone and this is the conversation.

Me(sounding alseep): hello?
Robbie- Hey baby
Me(freaked out)- who is this?
Robbie: It's Robbie hunny
Me: Uh- I don't think I know you
Robbie: Of course you do!
Me: Where do you know me from?
Robbie: *name of town I live in*
Me: I DO NOT KNOW YOU!
Robbie: I sure hope I didn't wake you sweetie pie.
Me(scared to death): ummm... How do you know me?
Robbie: Remember you smiled at me a few weeks ago? You are soo beautiful.
Me(getting my cell phone out in case I had to call 911-lol): I do not know you!
Robbie: You have such beautiful dark brown hair
Me: GOODBYE! (hangs up)

Why I stayed on the phone for so long- I will never know but that was freaky!! I got like 4 hours of sleep and I am scared to go back to sleep!!

my phone is one number different from a popular barbeque joint in town, so I get phone calls ALL THE TIME from people wanting to order food. I eventually started taking their orders and leaving it at that

This was quite a while ago, but...

when my brother was a newborn, it was the middle of the night and my mother had just fed him and gotten him to sleep (and my brother didn't go to sleep easily as a baby). What happens next, when both my mother and brother have gotten to sleep? THE PHONE RINGS and wakes the whole house up. It was some elderly farmer, who thought he was calling the DNR, in a panic about his crops. My father angrily informed him that we were NOT the DNR, that they wouldn't be open at this hour anyway, and to not call this number again. So, what happens an hour later? Our farmer friend calls again! My dad unplugged the phone every night for the next few months.

I actually just remembered another story-

It was like....7 years ago. Someone calls my house collect and the operator person asks for ____ (my name; first and last.) So, I get on the phone and she says- *guys name-I forget* wants to talk to you from Ghana Africa- will you accept this call. I said no. I had no clue who it was and was not about to pay for a collect call from Africa for someone whom I didn't know.

This went on all year long and eventually I just wanted to accept the call and see who the hell it was. Alas, I never did...oh-well.
No more collect calls from Ghana for me anymore.

This is just a weird one.

During dinner, the phone rang. My mom answered it. It was a girl who seemed to know my name. I didn't know her, though. My mom asked, "Who is this?" and the girl responded... "I'm his girlfriend." I don't have a girlfriend, so that's ironic.

Although telemarketers are soo annoying, you can do the best things with them!

For instance: I am a college student so they were trying to sell me something so I said

I am a college student- if you can pay my student loans, my rent, my food bills, my electricity bill and some others, I would be happy to buy what you are selling for 1 month!

When I was thirteen, I got this guy "Mike" on the phone, who said that he knew me from elementary school. Being the naive little eighth grader I was, I thought that he was telling the truth, and started a conversation with him. Turns out he wasn't interested in talking about school. At all. What he said still makes me cringe.
