Wrong Number, But . . . - Page 2

I have gotten two calls looking for Lisa. I said that there is no Lisa here. He read me the number. I told him that's this number, but there is no Lisa. He called back a few days later, but he said "Sorry wrong number" and hung up. His area code is 416 so next time I see it, he'll go straight to voice mail.

Man, can I relate to these stories. I got a new cell phone through Verizon (b/c ATT SUCKS!). Well, my number is similar to a number they use at one of the commands at the Norfolk Naval Base. I get at least two or three phone calls from the base EVERY DAY! I have tried everything from calling the number back to answering the calls. Nothing has worked. SO FRUSTRATING!

That's great! Before I was able to block telemarketers, I would get a TON of calls for my aunt (I have her old phone number). I would respond, "She's dead," as nonchalantly as I could. When they asked for her husband, I would say, "Dead, too."

As for telemarketers for phone companies? I usually say, "Oh, do you mean telephones?" They say yes, so I say, "I don't believe in them. They're the tools of the devil! But thank you for calling!"

I'm met some interesting people that way...

My father has the same name as this cardiologist in town. People would call our house all the time and would leave some personal medical questions on our answering machine thinking they reached the doctor's home number.

The funniest was when some guy called my boyfriend's cell and asked if he could talk to Kristen. When my boyfriend said that he had the wrong the number, the guy goes, "Oh hell naw! That b*tch gave me a fake number!" and then hung up. Classic.

A few years ago, some airline pilot called my apartment claiming that someone had paged him with my number. I told him there must have been a mistake and someone must have misdialed. He kept insisting that there's no way someone could have misdialed. Uh...yeah there is genius. Then he started asking me questions about the number since it was 407 and then asked what the weather was like in Orlando. He then told me that he would be flying into Orlando the next week and said, "I'd love to meet you." EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!! I was only 19 at the time! I said, "Um..yeah...I've got to go..." and promptly hung up.

I thought I told you.
Yo I think you need to step off. Aight?"

Moved into my apartment at the U-N-I-versity
The only one who lives here is me
So why the the phone ring all day long
I got no friends except Mike, but he's gone for the summer
And I just want some peace and quiet
I come to my room and it's a telephone riot
Ring-a-ling-a-ling
Everytime I take a step
Can't eat, can't sleep, can't breathe
Can't get any of my work done
Cuz people keep callin with the same damn question
"Hello, is Shaniqua there?"
Nah Shaniqua moved out last year
I think you have the wrong number
This is Little T
"You mean Shaniqua's brother?"
Man, can't you just leave me alone
This ain't Shaniqua's house
This ain't her phone
And don't call back again
Cuz if you do, you know the answer man

Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
"Is Shaniqua there?" HELL NO
Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
"Is Shaniqua there?" HELL NO

I wonder who Shaniqua is
What she does or where she lives
Is she a pothead with too many zits?
A movie star with incredible tits?
Does she take the train, or drive in the car?
Work in the office, or down at the bar?
How the hell should I know?
She could be albino for all I care
"Hello, is Shaniqua there?"
Yeah, she is, but she can't talk now
She's busy milking a purple cow
And talking to the Easter Bunny
"Man you thing you're funny!"
Shut up Beavis, I told you six times before

Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
"Is Shaniqua there?" HELL NO
Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
"Is Shaniqua there?" HELL NO

Checked my machine on Friday
There were tewnty-two messages
Man I can't win at this
One said
"This here's for the kid living with Shaniqua.
You want that chick, you can keep her!"
Will this ever cease
So I can get some sleep
Shaniqua moved out
Leave ya message at the beep
(Beep!)
"Yo shaniqua..."
"I Love You..."
"Call Me."

Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
"Is Shaniqua there?" HELL NO
Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
Shaniqua don't live here no mo'
"Is Shaniqua there?" HELL NO

LOL! I have not heard that song in ages! I was thinking about it a couple of weeks ago.

About the topic, a guy called me who had the wrong number. After a couple of min. of telling him the phone number belonged to me, he then proceeds to tell me how nice I sound on the phone.

I hung up.

How much would you like to have? I mean, if these are repeat offenders, go with the flow. They ask for Kate, tell them that you're Kate - your voice is just a little funny from the face lift. Ask them if they've had plastic surgery yet. When they get huffy and say no, ask them why not - they certainly need it.

Get the idea?

One of the bad things about living in a dorm is the fact I'm getting phone calls for a girl who hasn't lived in my room for over three years! There's two different people calling her (I don't know what for) and I don't know how many times I have told them that's this chick doesn't live here anymore....

And they have to call at 8 in the morning.

"Yes, well thats my number"
"but thats Jessica's number"
"M'am I"ve had this number for 3 years. I'mnot sure what to tell you"

....3 minutes later of explaining that this was not jessica's number

"Well, I'm sorry. I thought this was Jessica's number"

OMG, I've had this exact converstion only they were looking for Maria. I had 3 different people call my number looking for this woman, and everytime I told them they had the wrong number but still kept calling.

Someone called my dorm @ 6am on a Saturday and had the wrong number. To make matters worse, they insisted I was some girl named Ashley who owed them gas money:

Me: Hello
Girl: Ashley? Yeah, this is Tiara. Where's my money?
Me: You have the wrong number
Girl: Bullshit
Me: Excuse me? You have the WRONG NUMBER.

*I hang up*

Not even 10 seconds later....

Me: Hello?
Girl: Bitch I picked up your cousin in Cleveland the other day! Do you know how much gas costs?!
Me: Do you know what time it is? You have the WRONG number!
Girl: I want my $6 dollars bitch! I ain't playin'!

*I hang up again*

*she IMMEDIATELY calls back*

Girl: I know where your ass lives and I want my $6! I wasted my motherf**king money picking up your %$#$$#$ cousin!!!
Me: Look, my name is Jocelyn. I live in Kent. I don't have a cousin in Cleveland and I don't know you. Seriously. So you need to quit calling here.

*She hangs up*
