Sometimes when solicitors call I mess with them. Sometimes when "Girls Gone Wild" calls, I put it on speaker phone and record me messing with them for your pleasure. Enjoy!

"I like...movies that have...rabbits in them."

Oh man. I used to sell Playboy magazine over the phone and my favorite calls were ones like that!
I once had an man tell me he used to love my magazine, but once he went to the mailbox to get his copy he got stung by a 1000 bees and almost died, and now the thought of Playboy just brings back such painful memories.
I laughed so much, I got fired.

Did you irritate the caller to the point where she hung up? Too funny. I bet they got your name somehow as a result of the Janet Jackson cupcake thing. It ALL goes back to that!

I feel cheated by the end! But a great discourse, nonetheless.

I like the awkward silence after you say you think it is immoral. Priceless.

Agreeing with Joe... and I don't think she knows what immoral means!

loved this! my husband plays reverse prank calls when people call us (numerous times a week) to offer us new credit cards. although we didn't know at the time we bought it, our phone has a voice transformer in it, so you can have a high alvin and the chipmunks type voice, or a low stalker robot voice. he enjoys speaking to the banks with the high voice, and they always call him "Ma'am". lol.

I love the reverse prank call, especially when its the credit card companies. Once they get me hooked I say, "well I'm not sure let me ask my Mommy".
