The Phone Call From Hell

“out of the clear blue sky, get a phone call from a person that you thought was long dead and buried in your past and almost vomit when you heard that person's voice? I just got one of those phone calls. The certain someone acted like "heya', cool, how's things" and I was all, "Bummer! I was sure that I told you to -f- off forever ago." You are sorta' cornered. You don't want to seem like you are holding on to the past and being petty, but you aren't really up for being best chums and shooting the breeze. Bizarro! And calling me at work too . . . yeck . . . I can't wait for quiting time.”

“gojo!














j/k”

“YIKES! "A voice from the past."

Well, I would say it like it is and get it over with!”

“Run, Newgirl! Run like the wind!”

“Ya it must have been one of those days Newgirl!

8D”

“How did you know the call was from Hell? Do you have caller ID, or did you *69 them and they were like, "Hello, Satan?"”

“LMFAO!!!!!!”

“Well, you guys made me laugh about it anyway. At least I didn't have to run into the person on the street or something. You are right WLD, I should have just said it like it is, but I was sorta' shocked. I said it like it is once before and I thought the message was clear then.”

“Run as fast as you can! Not too long ago, a boyfriend from high school started calling me at home. The first time I talked to him for a bit and asked him not to call me again. Then next coupla times I asked him politely not to call me anymore, and both times had to say "DON'T MAKE ME BE RUDE AND HANG UP ON YOU" and then I hung up on him. For weeks after he had long conversations with my answering machine. Really freaky stuff. I had the phone company take my street address off my listing in the book.

Never mind how you seem, just be a rude #&%!$ and tell him to get lost! (that is if you want to, lol...)”

“Was this person a former Flame?

Was it good stuff?

Probably best to cut and run Newgirl-”

“Like a puppy that follows you down the sidewalk... You can talk nice to it and tell it to "Go home." as many times as you want and it'll still continue. But to truely get it to stop following you, as hard as it may be to do it, you need to yell and be rude in order for it to turn away and stop following.”

“Oh yeah Twig, I do. And actually this person is not an ex-bf, but they are a person I would rather not ever have contact w/ again.”

“My family seems to attract stalkers- I've had one, my older brother had one, my younger brother's had two, and my sister's had three. One of hers was the scariest- He told her he was a cop, they went out for a while, turns out he didn't have a job at all and was living with his Grandma. (He was 28 at the time) When she threatened him with an order of protection, his mother came to my sis's place and said that if my sis went to the cops, she herself would have to keep an eye on my sister... Creepy.”

“Geez, Corporal, you and the fam. have had some serious stalker probs.”

“Yep. We've even had a case when two of our stalkers have showed up at the same time, stalking two different family members- They hit it off, actually, and from then on, I truly believe they joined forces to become the nation's most efficient stalking team.”

“Bizarre! This "stalker" isn't that serious of an issue, but all the same, I would rather not deal w/ it.”

“It's definitely best to confront it, in my experience. It's hard not to be polite when they call, since you don't want to seem like a jerk or whatever, but the longer they think it's okay to call you at work, etc. the more they seem to think they have some sort of relationship w/you. I've had to be less than polite when it came to my own stalker and all of my sis's, but it takes care of the problem. I haven't seen your other stalker post here yet, although I don't think my advice would work over the internet, sorry :)”

“Men aren't plagued by old girlfriends.

Men aren't afraid to say, "Don't ever call me again you #&%!$in #&%!$."”

“Bacpac, I already said it once. That's what I was shocked about. That I have freaked on this person once before and it was almost 3 yrs. ago. I'm not afraid. I know that I am not in danger. I just don't want to deal w/ the retarded bullcrap.”

“I'll come up there and give him a good thrashing, that is, of course, if you want that done to this other person.”

“3 years ago? Perhaps it's time for his next bowl of scorn flakes.”

“LOL Corp.!”

“I bet if you run into them on the street you would kick the liveing shi! out of them or something.

8D”

“How come I don't get any adventures?”

“You should have hung up the phone as soon as you realized who it was.

Instead you let the guilt of blasting this guy three years ago get in the way of honesty. Now he thinks there is a chance.”

“I agree with bacpac on this one. I have told some of my women friends in the past that if you don't make it unmistakably clear, us dumb men will take it as a definite yes.”

“Is that from experience Bacpac????????

8)”

“Of course it is from experience. Do you think I just make this stuff up?”

“LMFAO!!!!!

8O”

“You know how twilight zone this has to be for us to agree with Bacpac, %^ )

The reply I'm thinking of would/ve melted the lines.”

“Ya know it is OK to agree with me once in a while. Read the post before you read the name. Maybe that will help.”

“I thought we had a wonderful time dancing under the stormy sky at Ouzel lk. Granted you were sound asleep and rather limp in my arms but you hung in there like a true trooper. I've heard of bedroom eyes but tent eyes are even better. OMG!! Caio Bella!!! Till we meet again! And now I get the cold shoulder over the phone! I'm amazed I was able to reach you with the six digits I got off you. Mohahahahaha!

Was it lover boy from across the 'great pond' or some other lumberyard jockey that came calling again?”

“How'd lyra get your number?”

“look, she wouldn't corn me, like she did all her other friends...what could i do?

”

“did he moon you again? give him your cheap droopy tent and tell him to go to a wedding.”

“Get revenge newgirl. Call lyra, (666) 666-6666 8)”

“Three words: F... Off A$$breath!”

“SSHHHH, Aero! stop giving out my home number! 8)

and that totally sucks, newgirl! do you have caller ID on your phone? if so, you could go the avoidance route. my fave!”

“Next time he calls try to sell him some vinyl siding or a new credit card!”

“Now that's good advice, LMFAO!”

“About three weeks ago I was in bed asleep and my ex just opens up the front door and walks in looking for my son. Luckily I was wearing a T-shirt because I jumped out of bed to see who it was. I told her he wasn't there and she wanted to look around. He's 23 years old and lives with his girlfriend in Montreal. I have another story about my ex in the same genre, but the bell just run. I'll be back. BTW the divorce was finalised in 1992.”

“Just do what you would do to all your old friends...




















...Corn him.


LMFAO”

“Cob Salad?”

“Crazy Mike, you know what a huge A$$ Whooper I am. I totally would have kicked his a$$ if I saw him on the street.

Briar, you lovely boy, you crack me up. Tent eyes! LOL!

And, finally, Lyra, I so totally apologize from the bottom of my heart for not corning you. I hope you'll accept my apology.

Seriously though, this person (okay, a guy) is someone I never dated, we never had a fling thing, he never tried to hit on me, nothing like that. He just tried to get me involved in a bizarro situation and I was freaked out. I told him what I thought and to stay the -f- away from me and mine. Unfortunately, we grew up in the same small town and he's around every once in awhile. He found out I was working at the mill apparently and thought he would call. I have no clue, maybe this was a stupid thing from his past and everything is peachy now. I'll repeat again though, I am not scared and am in no danger. It's mainly just annoying.”

“May I be of service?”

“Perfect solution- turn ULTRAPacker loose on him! Have him send you some recorded phone messages some of his previous post highlights!”

“May I be of service?”

“Sell them all vinyl siding!”

“The vinyl siding is a really good suggestion.”

“Better yet, sell them Amway.”
