I received a text message today from a stranger. He had a 360 area code, which is my area code. Here is our text conversation in its entirety.
360: R u a chick
Me: Are you a rhinoceros?
360: Am a guy. I am 19.
Me: I am a happily married man. How did you get this number?
360: Just started txting randum peaps!. Do you have any friends that r girls or any on ur contacts that i can have?
360: U receive text
360: U receive previous text
I wanted to write back to ask how successful the cold call "R u a chick" technique was working for him, but I didn't have time.
Oh my goodness. I can't believe that happened to you.
ReplyDeleteYour life is strange.
And I thought MPD cold-calling was hard.
Creepy, sad and funny all at once.
ReplyDeleteI received a txt like this that was for a different girl - when I responded to let him know that it was the wrong person he said,
ReplyDelete"well who is this?" & "wanted to know if I was available"
I promptly stopped txting.
Wow...it's a weird world sometimes.
ReplyDeleteMatt, I've been reading your blog out loud to Tifah and Reid when we're driving for entertainment. We've all been cackling delightedly. Keep it up!
