New York City Calling~~~~

[Lynnie]

Full Moon or maybe this person is just your basic dumbass.

212 number calls around 9:45 this morning.....I have affectionately named this caller 'Pat' because I cannot discern if it is a male or female:

Me: Hello?
Pat: Hawlo?
Me: Hello?
Pat: Hawlo?
Me: Hello?
Pat: Hawlo? Is dis Shas?
Me: Who?
Pat: Oh Gawd! Dis is a wong numbah.

Calls goes dead.

An hour and half later, 212 aka Pat calls again.:

Me: Hello?
Pat: Hawlo?
Me: Hello?
Pat: Hawlo?
Me: Hello?
Pat: Hawlo? Is dis Shez? Shez?
Me: No.
Pat: Shez?
Me: No.
Pat: Is this 404........?
Me: That's correct.
Pat: Shez?
Me: No.
Pat: Oh Gawd!
Me: You might have a wrong number.

The calls goes dead.

One minute later, 212 / Pat calls again:

Me: Hello?
Pat: Hawlo?
Me: Hello?
Pat: Hawlo?
Me: Hello?
Pat: Hawlo? Is this Shez? Shez?
Me: No. I thought we determined you had a wrong number.
Pat: As far as I concerned, dis numbah is corwrect!

WTF?

Me: Well, I think it's not correct.
Pat: Look, dis is da numbah I was given.
Me: OK, but it's wrong.
Pat: I don't undastand.
Me: OK, this is the third time you've called and we have determined in each call that you have a wrong number. (slightly giggling.)
Pat: I do not have wong numbah.
Me: OK, well then, keep calling.
Pat: What?
Me: Just keep calling this number. (laughing out loud!)
Pat: Shez?

WTF?????

Me: He's not here right now. (almost hysterical!)
Pat: Where is he?
Me: I don't know. But, I think you should keep calling.
Pat: I don't want to call you anymore!
Me: Huh? Why not?
Pat: Oh Gawd! OK, I am not going to call you anymore.

Call goes dead.

What a fabulous Monday!!!!

I like your New Yowk accent.

Damn I am sorry Lynnie! I thought I was dialing my bro shez's number! *innocent blinks*

 

[Lynnie]

SSB, I think Pat is originally from Micronesia who has tried to adopt a NYC accent! I'm surprised it didn't say, "Fahgeddabitit!"

Douglas, are you from Micronesia?

I devilishly thought about calling the number back and be Shez or Shas. Hmmmmm.

You sound like you are having the same luck as our daughter. Like she says on her website, "I prefer texts, as I?m a paranoid weirdo who screens calls. I have a really freaky phone number, so I get A LOT of junk. Like, kids calling Santa, pimps who think they are calling their out-of-line-hoes, and drunk teenagers. It?s a laugh."

She cracks me up.

Y'all! Pat called and left a vm - hysterical!! S/he is very concerned that I haven't called in a while!


I am taking this as a sign to sufficiently entertain myself by returning the call.

Yes, it is a sign, but are you sufficiently intoxicated to pull it off?

I am, but I want to listen to the msg again before I call it back. It will all be sufficient, I feel certain......somehow. Ya' know?
