Sneaky Bastard

I’ve been getting phone calls from DialAmerica Marketing several times a day recently. I decided to answer the phone this time, just to see what they were shilling. So, I hit speakerphone and just listened. I didn’t say anything, I was just quiet. My throat is killing me right now, and I didn’t feel like talking. I just wanted to hear the telemarketing weasel run through his script.

Well, interestingly, the caller said only “Hello, I’m calling for Joseph Lamoree.” and then waited for about twenty seconds. It was quiet on my end of the line. Finally he spoke again:

So, you’re just going to be quiet and pretend that you’re not there. That’s okay. We’ll just call back tonight, and tomorrow, and the next day. And I won’t tell anybody that you’re a rapist who likes to listen.

What a lovely young man. I sure hope he calls back.
