As seen at Knuckledraggin’.
True story: Slow day. The phone rang, and I answered it.
“Pizza Shack. Can I take your order?”
“Wha… ” Caller sputtering, hangs up. Phone rings again.
“Madame Butterfly’s Massage Parlor. How may we service you”
Immediate disconnect.
No big deal, right. But the funny part is that this was on deployment in theater for Desert Shield/Storm. The calls were on a crypto phone on a closed, dedicated military net, not the public switched telephone network. USCENTAF in Saudi Arabia was calling.
Anyway, the phone rang again, and I answered it properly. The guy on the other end started telling me about the weird wrong numbers he was getting.
Some folks are slow on the uptake. And yes, I have always been a smartass.
