My new answer on the answering machine

Greetings, you have reached the sixth sense detective agency! We know who you are and what you want, so at the the sound of the tone, please hang up.

That's your problem right there!!! PM, you aren't supposed to talk TO answering machines, you talk to whomever you called through the medium of the answering machine!!!

What, did you think the machine would talk back to you j/k

I get a lot of machine when calling people from my dad's office telling them their glasses have arrived. I got one that went something like this:

*raspy old woman* Hold on... *things shuffle around* *music starts to play, quiet at first, but then loud and distorted as she moved the stereo closer to the mic* Oh Honey, I want your body, I love you so much, I want to... *music stops* *raspy old woman speaks* Leave a message after the bloopy *about a 10 second wait listening to more things shuffling around and old woman muttering under her breath trying to figure out how to get the message to end* BEEP!



"This is Dr......."

I like to put a normal message, then set the machine to just hang up.

Im an ass. home or not home i rarely answer the phone, Its about a 1% chance that its someone I actually want to talk to anyways, and if it is a friend or someone important, then they can call my cell, or they know they can find me on MSN about 90% of the time

I don't know why I even have my own phone here (I'm boarding in the basement of a single lady's house, there are 2 other students boarding as well, both French). I keep it disconnected all the time. Half the calls are French and I don't speak a lick of it, others are just for people that I really don't know or care if they're here or not....
