Who had your number before you??? I got a call
From Beijing yesterday while I was packing my
car for vacation, and here's this person gargling
OutChinese, and I kept trying to tell them I
don't speak Chinese, but she just kept getting more
and more angry. And I didn't think to use that
App where you type in what you want to say in
whatever language and it tells you. AndI know tho
is super wrong, but I ended up yelling " you wing
wong numba"!!! Which is when she finally hung up.
So.. Anyonelse get those calls that make you wonder
Who must had your number before they gave it to YOU??
I also got a call form Fremont MI last night...no message,
Totally weird after China called..

    Whoever had our number before apparently never paid their bills.

    I had an old number for a friend and got a very angry message back one day telling me to tell all my mates to stop messaging/calling them
    I don't mean to offend anyone, a lot of what I say should be taken with a grain of salt... that said for most of you I'm a stranger on a computer on the other side of the world, don't give me that sort of power!

    Got one of those this morning! So much for me being a winner.. :fp:
    The thing I like most about time is that it's not real. It's all in the head. Sure, it's a useful trick to use if you want to meet someone at a specific place in the universe and have tea or coffee- but that's all it is- a trick. There is no such thing as the past. It exists only in the memory. There is no such thing as the future. It exists only in our imagination. If our watches were truly accurate, the only thing they would ever say is "Now". That's what time it is. It's "Now". - Damien Echols

    I got a call once from this guy who was like "This is Craig...remember, from Mexico?" I said I had never been to Mexico and I didn't have any friends named Craig. He asked "Are you sure you weren't in Mexico?" Uhhh...yeah pretty sure I'd remember having quite a difficult time getting into a country when I don't even have a passport.

    Then I got a message on my voicemail once of a guy who was explaining that he was at some home goods store and they didn't have the coffee maker they wanted. He said he was only going to be there for a few minutes longer and to call back to let him know which coffee maker to get. I called back and explained that he dialed the wrong number. We had a laugh and I said "I do need a coffee maker though...can't go wrong with Mr. Coffee." :lol:

    I love it when an actual state shows up on the caller ID. I never answer, but am always like, "Honey, Kentucky is calling again. Want me to tell him to fuck off?"

    I love to call Snakeduck and ask if his refrigerator is running. He always has kind words for me.

    The guy who had my old number before me (or who gave it out as his fake number) was in some serious legal trouble. I had law offices and collection agencies calling me all the time.

    Translator and there's Google Translator, which
    is the one my friend loves so much. I downloaded
    it just now, just in case my Chinese friend calls
    back to tell me to go fuck myself for making
    fun of her!! Lmao!
