Haha...I would have just gone "Yep, that's me...what's up?".
Don't they know he lives in Southpark, Colorado these days!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HAHAHAHAHAHA!!
Im with trips, or at least taken a message! gold!
I once got one from an unrecognised number. okie dokie, happens, not usually at 9:30pm, but whatever. so ...:
husky female voice 'Hi!'
hrs: 'Hey. hrs speaking, who is this?'
'where are you?'
'at home'
'why are you there?'
'where am I meant to be?'
'where we arranged to meet honey'
'honey? arranged? erm ...'
'I'm where we arranged to meet and I've got nothing on but a raincoat ...'
'I see. can I ask who's speaking?'
'honey don't play games'
'no, I think you've got the wrong number'
'Dave sweetie, don't be silly ...'
'erm, this is not Dave. Dave's not here man. not Dave. HRS. you've got the wrong number'
silence
hrs: 'so where did you say you were again? it's not like I'm up to much, and since Dave's gotten lost or found some wildlife on the way ...'
hahahaha
my housemate got one once asking her what she was wearing at 7am. She's like "err my pyjamas. Who is this?' so funny
That doesnt happen in real life, does it?!
jesus.
sounds like single white female or the letters section of playboy.
i called filterfeed at work and asked her what she was wearing
i forget what it was, but it wasn't exciting at all
sorry, true story. except the wildlife bit, I think that's a bit of embellishment. the poor girl ended up being profoundly embarrassed as you could imagine, so I tried to convince her I'd taken it as a joke and got the hell off there. because, well, I was pretty embarrassed too to tell the truth.
i have been getting calls for the last 3 days, that consist of a 5 second musical loop. then silence. i fiured it was someone i know taking the piss, but most of my mates are too lazy to be that persistent. any ideas?
what kind of a story is that, horse??
here's an sms i got a while ago......." Hey my sweet beautiful sex goddess, wot u up2 gorgeous?? wanna catch up l8r 4 a hotnsweaty, slownsensual, teasinnpleasin, naked romp in nice hot bubbly spa??"
a disappointing one ?
I was pretty sure at the time it was a mate trying to mess with me. but her reaction once the ordeal was over suggested otherwise.

i don't understand that ... why would you be typing in the number to send an sms like that ... surely the person involved is in your address book ?
have you seen White Noise, ambo?
or the Mothman prophecies?
If not, DON'T EVER SEE THOSE MOVIES.
THEY SUCK.
bobby pyn, your photo makes you looka bit like Lloyd Cole in about '85. very cool.
no, but thanks for the heads up.
i once got a phone call from a very pissed campy guy who said "oh hello! what are you doing at my house?" when i explained to him that he had rung my house, we then had a half an hour chat
HAHA.. yuck. that's a gross sms.
and yep, horse.
very disappointing.
i don't know the number at all. definately not in my address book.
See Hamish and Andy - Phone Sex Prank on iTunes' podcast directory.
Ummmm.... You were born on Christmas day right?
Me thinks it was a gag.
i thought the mothman prophecies was SCARY! But hey, maybe I just want to believe...
One of the Bowdens?
hahah..
hey freaksy, wake up number 37
hahah
i like laura linney, but i cant take richard gere seriously.
nah, it sounded like an international marketing caller, so i think it was legit... i had to double check 'You want Christ?'
yes
'sorry, you've got the wrong number'
Hardly anyone knows my new home ph number, so i can pretty safely count gags out.
But..... your the Christ Child!
hehe... I want one now.
Once I was speaking to a friend on the phone and upon hanging up the phone rang again - assuming it was him ringing back I picked up the phone and said
"What now? I was just about to have a slash!"
"Hello? is that .....? I am calling regarding the job application you put in"
Needless to say, I didn't get the job
8:10am this morning....
*ring*
"Hello?"
(female voice): "I want you to fuck me up the arse!"
& then *hangs up*.
Quite odd. Particularly for that time of the morning, a little early for your average prank caller I would have thought.
When I worked at a dentist someone called up and asked if they could make an appt to have all their teeth extracted and mounted onto a block of parmesan cheese.
Another one wanted to have his teeth shaved down like a porpoise.
i got one this morning from a withheld number.
me: hello
withheld number person: hello, is this september.
me: ahhhhh....yes.
withheld number person: hehehehe. what's going on?
me: ahhhhh...i'm just doing my work.
withheld number person: hehehehe.
then he hung up.

you can register on this to stop india calling... by the way.
I got a strange one earlier this year too.
they said they were going to bash my head in. i know who was responsible for it too, but they never said sorry.
:(
Want me to bash them, Harold?
yeah get wipey. he is tough
FUCKEN SHUTUP ALRIGHT!
woh. you aint gonna like my new thread
My ex got sent a message from a Nick or something telling him what a wild night they had together in Melbourne. Neither of us or anyone we know personally is called Nick. Bizareo.
Nor has any of us had sex in Melbourne, or in the state of Victoria ever.
you should try it some time. gives a whole new meaning to the word m-town.
maybe HE had sex in melbourne
He so did not, especially not with a guy named Nick. He rang me up asking me if I'd given his number out to anyone, he was amused and disturbed and Nick wasn't too impressed either. I did call someone (a girlfriend) from his phone once and I kind of think I know who it was.
...that gave his number out. It was obviously a practical joke being played on this guy.
Me: Hello?
Him: Oi, I got your number from my girl's phone. You go near her again I'm gunna get ya. I know where you live.
Me: (Not convinced, but slightly cautious) Who's your girl?
H: You know fuckwit! I'll get ya!
Goes around in circles a bit, in the end he hung up. Either it was a poorly thought out prank, or he fucked up. More interesting to hear than to write.
not so much strange as annoying, but ive got about 20 calls from a blocked number in the last two weeks, and they dont leave messages, but they keep calling!
dont these people understand the notion of SCREENING????
ha, yeah i don't answer numbers i don't recognise either.
I made a strange phone call:
'Hello, Bruce speaking'
Me (nervous laughter): Hi Luke
Bruce: Um..
Me: How's it going?
Bruce: Um.... OK...
Me: Look I'm acutally ringing with some pretty sad news.
Bruce: OK..
Me: So you probably want to stop with that camp voice. You'll just feel pretty stupid otherwise.
Bruce (still with camp voice): Oh
Me: Anyway I just wanted to tell you that Paul's dad died today. You might want to give him a call later.
Bruce (nervously): Oh
Me: Look. I'd better go now, just wanted to let people know. We should try to catch up with Paul in the next couple of days.
Bruce (persisting with camp voice): OK (cautiously) Thank you for calling.
I felt a little weird about this exchange, so checked the number I dialled.
It wasn't Luke's.
I just got a phone call from mum... in a week today (their 30th wedding anniversary) she and dad head of to India for a holiday. Tonight, however, she's at home watching Australian story...
Mum: Hey, you watching Australian Story or whatever it is?
Me: No, I'm downstairs, haven't turned the TV on yet.
Mum: ok, I have a quick conversation I need to have with you then...
Me: shoot.
[beat]
Mum: if anything ghastly should happen to us, a dead body is like a shoe box with no shoes in it... useless.
[beat]
Me: ummm...
[beat]
... what are you saying.
Mum: well, there's no need to spend thousands of dollars bringing it back, that's my thought on the matter and your father will follow my lead.
[he always does]
[beat]
Me: ok then mum.
Mum: and like all things, now that you have that information you won't need to use it.
Me: ok then mum.
Mum: see ya!
ha, my parents always make sure I know where their will is before they head off overseas for a trip
horrible conversation, but at least you know what they do or don't want, redlips
true true... but yeah, not a fun conversation. I rang her back straight away to talk about the various fine fabrics of Jaipur...
Same here. Fucking annoying. Now I'm getting blank SMSes from strange numbers.
me too. just to my work number.
Just had a call from a man in Brisbane who wanted to let the Channel 7 newsroom in on his thoughts:
''Tell bloody Tony Blair to rack off. We got enough pommy bastards in this country. Certainly don't need that dong head mucking things up 'ere.''
