I'm going to slam the telephone against the wall
Seriously, I hate that damn thing, no-one ever calls for me anyway, it's always for Marshmallow, if someone does call they just want money for this one or that one.
These goddamned auto calls, by the time I get to that damn confernal contraption the ringing stops. I hate telephones.

1. After it lands, can I throw it a couple of times too?
I'm with you all the way. You are so right. I despise a ringing ass phone that is never a human being who wants to talk to me. Please let me throw your phone around some too. :thumbsup:

2. I'll take a turn, myself.
If it's not someone wanting me to give money to this or that, it's someone wanting me to do something or take them somewhere or buy them something or bake something or pick up someone.

Only one person ever calls me just to say "How ya doin'?"

I'm grateful to her, by the way. The rest of 'em can just go take a long walk off a short pier, as my dear old mom used to say.

:hug:

5. I hear ya!
I am helping with our local candidate's state campaign and he wanted to do a phone calling session on Tuesday. I told him NO!

Much better to use that time meeting face to face with voters, going door to door. I really see this as much more effective campaigning and the voters we have met really appreciate seeing their candidate banging on doors looking for a vote. (in pelting rain and gale force winds)
