Prank Phone Calls and the absolute toolbags who make them

Andara--that is what I said to him, actually, haha.

(commence language, be warned, rant ahead.)

Nyx--my brother's girlfriend regularly visits 4chan. And you know what? Those little jokes are funny when you do them to your friends. I'm guilty of calling someone, yelling, "TRY DOING A BARREL ROLL!!" and then hanging up, or asking someone if they like mudkip (because I heard they did), but a business? Really? How fucking immature is that? How friggin' pathetic does one have to be to harass people who are just trying to make a damn living, no matter where they work? Oh, and then posting it on YouTube like it's some sort of accomplishment--hilarious. Thanks for making my miserable job even more miserable and then posting it on the internet, spoiled little manbitches. People like that don't have jobs, there's no way. There's no way they can work minimum or close to minimum wage jobs and not have sympathy for people getting those stupid phone calls.

Really, if someone wants to prank me, they need to do it to my damn face.

the end.

Sooory, I just figured if you showed them you were onto their little game that they'd give up. Just thought it might help, guess not... :\

Hey now! Battletoads was a fun game! Insanely difficult but fun.

I especially got a kick out of the fact you can attack and hurt your partner when playing a 2-player game. Many times, when playing the game with friends, we'd attack each other more than we'd attack the enemies.

But none of that's as good as the time the twelve year old called, asked if I was a girl, then asked if he could "hit that".

Heh. That's when you mock him for being too little. Ask something like, "I'm sorry, little boy. Does your mommy know you're using her telephone?" or the like, treating him like he's 5. They hate that stuff.

....

Oh, joy. 4channers. Some of the worst in forum asshattery, ever.

^-.-^

OHHHHHHH I am going to be killed for breaking rules 1 and 2!!! But this is the work of the anonymous. *sigh* Any anons here can kill me now.... I wondered why they were posting Game Stop phone numbers, but it being 4chan I dared not ask. Check out 4chan.org if you dare. I dunno ask them if they like mudkips, it may throw them for a loop.

Maybe you can stop them? I can think of a few dumb things to tell them, maybe just say "frosted butts" or "sing never gonna give you up" or ask "lol wat?" hmm messing with anons might be fun.

Ask them how long is long cat, or ask to see their pokemans, or tell them to do a barrel roll, maybe tell them your on another call with a man named candlejack and then hang up mid sentence or tell them they will be "vanned" lol this is kinda fun.

Laffin. I can remember calling the grocery store and asking if they had Prince Albert in the can.

Guess I just told everybody how old I am.

I'm not sure these absolute morons do this to any other type of establishment besides videogame stores, because they are videogame related pranks. It's the kind of crap that people do to get their jollies off, record, and post on YouTube because they have some sort of humor deficiency and can't laugh at anything unless it's absolutely stupid. And it's been getting progressively worse this week, more phone calls more often, and the pranks keep getting dumber and dumber.

The first one was this:
"Yeah, do you guys have Battletoads?"

After the second call asking this, my reply:
"Oh yeah, man they're selling fast, better come pick up your copy before they all sell out!"

-click-


They've moved on to this:
"Do you guys have Grand Theft Auto: Johnson City Stories?" (for those who don't know, yes, I suspect they are trying to use "johnson" in the way most people don't.)

I've started saying "Let me check" and then setting the phone down until they hang up.


Really? How is this shit funny? The battletoads thing? Obvious prank. The Johnson City Stories? Yeah, when your stupid friends are laughing in the background, give me a damn break.

But none of that's as good as the time the twelve year old called, asked if I was a girl, then asked if he could "hit that".
