Yes kid, tell your ma!

[Mytical]

I'm impressed with the son. Polite, and dealing with somebody screaming in his ears that is about 51 cards short of a deck.

[Kristev]

Wow, that's just . . . lunacy.

[Skelly]

Wow... someone needs their tinfoil hat adjusted.

No, someone needs their medications adjusted and the straight jacket checked to ensure it's put on correctly

You basically just talked to my mother and my time diffused 14 year-old self. Man it's annoying having to live with a psychotic mother.

You too, eh? (in my case it was my grandmother; poor mom had to run interference most of the time)

Gee, I kinda think the lady was more desperate then the son was.

Yup. My grandmother tended to think that my only source of any entertainment was TV/Nintendo, and when I was bouncing around in the yard after dark she'd tell my mom "see I told you she's crazy!"

[C. Cecil Ivanish]

Wow, paranoid much?

NOOOOOOOOOOO, why would you say so?

Gee, I kinda think the lady was more desperate then the son was.

You think?
"Fix the kid's toy and keep him busy while I use my giant dildo!"

Clearly the poor kid must take after his Dad.

...whoever he is, I imagine.

I'm impressed with the son. Polite, and dealing with somebody screaming in his ears that is about 51 cards short of a deck.

Yes, going through detailed troubleshooting (as in, "press this button", "plug the thingmy in port X", and at the same time keeping his mother relatively calm.
I admire him.

I still can't wrap my head around how she refused to give any info, but just flat-out asked for your name so she could report you to the police.

"WELL IT'S OBVIOUS THAT I'M NOT A CRIMINAL/RAPIST/CON ARTIST!!!"

I'd like to shrug it off as some people are stupid but SCs aren't really people.

[aquah2o]

Wow nothing like paranoid parents is there?

[CrazedClerkthe2nd]

Did you happen to hear Fox News in the background of that call by any chance?

[Geek King]

Did you happen to hear Fox News in the background of that call by any chance?

Sorry, gross paranoia is more the "Coast to Coast Overnight" crowd.

[Kristev]

Thanks. I'd managed to make myself forget all about that group of paranoia prophets. Now I have to remember being forced to listen to it growing up. My mom & brother are alien-chasers.

[C. Cecil Ivanish]

I still can't wrap my head around how she refused to give any info, but just flat-out asked for your name so she could report you to the police.

Well, I do give my name every time I answer the phone... first name only, though. And I do. Not. Give. My. Full. Name.
Then again, I am the only Marco in the office.

[Chromatix]

Is there someone else named Polo?

[Can I Help Your A$$?]

Sounds like my Gramma got reincarnated. Too bad the Karma rule didn't kick and she's still the same. Hi, Gramma! Remember me? I'm still a disappointment!

[tropicsgoddess]

That mom is a nut job, such a shame the son had more sense than her.
