You know when you're on hold and they play music for you . . .
well my mom is on the phone (right now) with Verizon, and she just started singing, "Take my hand . . . " So I look at her with a "what-on-earth-are-you-doing-singing-into-the-telephone" type of face.
And my Mom, says, "It's Vanessa Carlton, Ordinary Day"
"Well I know that mom!"
"They play Vanessa on hold!"
:D
Yay! All the angry Verizon customers get to hear Vanessa!!

I used to be a Verizon Wireless customer, but since they didn't cut off my service when I told them to, they want $700 that they'll never see.

Soooooo . . .because we left ATT and switched to verizon MCI has been bugging us lately trying to sell their phine service. And since they call about 3 times a day . .. we've come up with a list of responces to them . ..
one of them is to put MCI on "hold" by playing Vanessa into the mouth piece! lol! And it wasn't even my suggestion!

LMAO! I had this list of things to say to telemarketers and I don't remember all of them...But when they want you to get the "MCI Friends and Family Plan" simply say,
"I don't have any friends and I have killed all my family,"
They won't ever call back trying to sell that again...Trust me!

I found some more of the old ones!
*When they call try to convince them that it was you calling them*
*Try reversing it, and try to sell them your dog or cat!*
*Immitate(spelling) the ring, by just saying, "Seven days!"*
*Give the phone to a younger sibling and tell them the man/woman wants to give you something*
*Begining fighting with someone while the telemarketer is selling*
*Act interested, ask questions and then remember that you just bought the same item from walmart two days ago...*
*Try to convince the telemarketer to just give you 2 and 1/2 half of whatever the item is*
*If it is a door to door witness(mormons, jahovas witnesses) then invited them in and let them talk, agree and then offer them a beer, or a cigarette.*
*Or just try This (http://www.donotcall.gov)*

I just ask religious people to come in and then I have a huge religious discussion with them that is way over most of their heads. I just love when people new to that are supposed to talk with me (with someone standing right beside them helping.) Most of the time they leave confused and questioning their own religion. Every once in a while you find someone who really knows stuff and it all just comes down to disagreeing.

I like to prank call their number for a free book of mormon,
1-888-537-2200
I always just confuse them, asking about wha the hell a mormon is....
And this one time when I was about 13, me and my neighbors were sitting on their porch, and I saw them going to the person-next-doors-house, and so we ran into their house and grabbed crayons, and paper, and wrong "Morons are wrong," but right before they got there we noticed that it said "morons" and not "Mormon" so we switched it, and started marching around a tree in their front yard chanting mormons are wrong, (because at that time I was under my parents religious beliefs) and then the mormons walked up to us and started asking us questions, and they were like so what are you doing marching around the tree....And I just said, oh its just a tradition we have, of walking around this tree 100 times a day...and he said something about that was cool, and then we held our small signs down, and he asked what we were drawing....and I said, oh were just drawing nature and stuff, and he asked to see it, and the two other guys I was with just tore theirs up, and I just held mine and said it wasn't finished....So he started yacking on and on and on and on about mormons...and I said....some stuff back, and then we finally got them to leave...then when they were gone, the two guys I was with said that the other mormon guy kept looking at my paper, cause the sun was shining through it cause I was holding it to the side, and he could read it....I was like oh well...
That was my long random story of the day....That was incredibly grammatically incorrect!

Thats cool!
My mother would never sing a Vanessa Carlton song.
My mother doesn't really like her :lol:
-
(Not that I'm going along with the Mormon-bashing thing, here, but . . .)
Every time Mormons come to our door, my Mom tells them we're Catholic and they ALWAYS try to get us to convert (like Catholicism is ''wrong'' or ''bad . . .'' They're just jealous they're not a kick-ass Catholic like I am.) Jackie's Mom tells them she worships Satan.
Also, my Mom doesn't like Vanessa, (she thinks she's annoying, untalented, sings through her nose, Etc.), though she'd probably start singing, too. She does things like that just to get on my nerves. =O
I hate AOL.

I hate aol
I just tell the mormons...Since that one time....That I'm atheist and they need to leave, or well be playing chase the mormon down the street with the gun!
-
Lol, "chase the Mormon"
I hate my computer speakers. They don't have an outlet for my headphones. What the hell is up with that?!
-
I have a headphone thing on my computer at home cause my speakers suck!
-
My parents have this huge-ass picture of the Pope in our foyer... whenever the mormons show up, they see it and flee in terror! No really, they see it and leave without saying a word... It's actually quite humorous. Except that recently they started using another tactic - they've been giving my 3 year old brother those Mormon coloring books... yeah, I don't like that so much.
