[Skyblade]

Thanks for the clarification, Banya!

I want to creep one of them out some time.

"Hello, you have problem with computer; we can-"
*Loud shaky nose breathing.* "Ooohhhhh, I ssstill remember how you ssmell. . ."
". . . W . . . What, sir?"
"Mm, don't say anything. . . I'll at your home tonight." *Click.*

I would be scared.

I get calls like this all the time, but I'm to lazy to answer my phone, so yeah. 'Guess it paid off one way or another.

[Faiyloe]

Aw come on. Why can't you be crazy like this when I am crazy?

[The Skarzs]

It's like an hourglass: when one side is full of sand, the other is devoid of it.

I got a call from a 801 area code, but it said that it was from Odgen, Utah. Whatever, I let it go to voicemail because I couldn't handle it then anyway.

[BadgerLordFiredrake]

it's probably mean, but ever trolled one?    I haven't but I've seen some pretty good stories...
And yeah, 801 is SLC area (including Ogden, Roy, etc).  Can confirm.

What you could do (I've not gotten any calls, so I can't do this) is pretend you don't know how to work your computer. You could say stuff like like, "Oh darn, it's asking for my password, give me just a second, I'll need to remember it." Or "how do I turn it on? Is there a button or something?". You could also say, "It's loading, I'll need a few minutes." Then just read a book for as long as they'll wait

       Or you could just say, "I have to check something, be back in a minute," and leave the phone on, but just go do whatever.  Then come back like, every 10 minutes to see if they're still there.

I got another call yesterday. Ignored it though.
