Re: What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?
Some asshole call center is spamming our phone every few minutes. Have received about 7 calls in the last 15 minutes. It sounds automated and no matter what I say it immediately says "thank you" the second I stop talking and immediately disconnects or puts me on hold. I am increasingly getting pissed off since my mom had surgery yesterday and is trying to rest.

Start keeping a detailed call log (date, time, inbound telephone number, etc.) and talk to a lawyer if the calls do not let up soon. (I am sure that your friends in the prosecutors office can recommend someone for you.) He or she should be able to get the calls to stop...and you might even get some money out of the ordeal. (Seriously, WV has some incredibly harsh laws consumer protection statutes. I despise litigating there, but I would take full advantage of them if I lived in the state!)Fragems wrote:Some asshole call center is spamming our phone every few minutes.

Well I looked forward to adulthood. It comes with its own separate rewards, but those of childhood mostly go away. Or you will find that what you used to enjoy isn't as fun anymore.

I host pajama parties a few times a year and adults love 'em. We play cards, catch phrase, and sometimes just work on a puzzle while listening to records. Might sound like a snore fest, but we always have fun. S'mores are probably key to having fun in a pj jam. That and girls in pajamas...but smore's are pretty awesome.

Just got through reporting them to the FCC. Will keep what you said in mind if they don't stop spamming me though.prfsnl_gmr wrote: Start keeping a detailed call log (date, time, inbound telephone number, etc.) and talk to a lawyer if the calls do not let up soon.

Agreed. Though I still had times like those until more recent years. I'm 24 now and now those days are over.
Even the horses are cut in half......

Luke is pretty much living proof that you can be a respected, mature adult without having to give up anything you loved as a kid.
