Bring PB & J to work. Bye.

[soonerbrat]

This is what I just overheard from the next cube. the guy next to me calls himself (home phone) and leaves himself reminder messages. if anyone's there and they answer, he tells them to hang up and let him call back and leave a message.

i just find this slightly amusing.
that is all.

[picasso]

hehe.

nutty peanut butter?

[picasso]

wear undies on right side tomorrow.

beep.

[OUDoc]

My kids' (step kids) dad will call. If one of the kids other than the one he wants answers the phone, they will tell their dad to call back. That way the first kid will just ignore the ringing phone, hoping the other kid will pick it up next time. Apparently it would be too much work for them to get up and find their sibling for their dad. :rolleyes:

[Hamhock]

i do this sometimes too, but I usually add a few comments about how sexy I look today.

[picasso]

don't wear the wife's nightie out to get paper in the morning.

beep.

make sure you have house key if you do.

We've seen your house, I'm siding with the kid.

you might remember more if you left the message after, instead of before, the beep.

ywia.

[picasso]

no no, the beep is the sound the phone makes when I hang it up, or strike it across your head.

why doesn't he just call their cell phones?

[Sooner Born Sooner Bred]

I used to work with a lady who would call and leave messages on her answering machine so her dogs could hear her voice during the day.

[KABOOKIE]

We had a guy at work that used to write reminders like that on his hand. We called it his hillbilly palm pilot. He was eating lunch one day and on the back side of his left hadn was a note, "update resume." He's no longer with us.

[OUDoc]

He does now. This was a year ago when the now-15yo's didn't have cell phones.

[royalfan5]

Does he actually say bye on the messages? That seems kind of unnecessary to me.

[Chuck Bao]

This is a great idea. I'm going to start leaving messages on my answering machine tomorrow. I think I'll call myself tonight just to remind myself.

But being that I'm paranoid and a conspiracy nut, I'll leave messages in secret code. It's a pity I never learned Pig Latin in school.

[Chuck Bao]

I think that's a nice touch. I hate it when people hang up before saying bye.

[Hot Rod]

You oughta call him on his work phone and say "This is your answer machine...why can't you just write this stuff down."

rEMEBER TO TAKE A **** BEFORE LEAVING THE HOUSE THE ****TER AT WORK BLOWS\

yes, he really says "bye" to himself.


have you ever noticed that the characters in movies and on television never say "bye" at the end of phone conversations?

The mutual hang up.

I blame it on the writers strike.

[OUDoc]

This is Chuck reminding Bill to 'shut up'.

[M]

I have actually done this a few times, but I will call my work number and leave a reminder voice mail (if it's an evening or a weekend). :O

[picasso]

waiiiiit for the beep, you gotta leave yo name you gotta leave your numba...

[IowaSooner26]

Answering machines are overrated. I send myself emails!

[Hamhock]

Heh, I have an aunt who does that.

That's so nice of her to think of you.

[SicEmBaylor]

Isn't it though.

In theory.

You killed him for writing on his hand?

[Hamhock]

i still can't believe nobody has posted the obvious copycat.

[SoonerInKCMO]

ehhay. ouchebagday.

[ChickSoonerFan]

I could do this, only I hardly ever check my voice mail.

I have emailed myself reminders to work from home though.

[SoonerGirl06]

I've tried this before myself. Somehow or another I manage to ignore them.

[soonerboomer93]

i've sent text messages to myself to remind me

[SoonerObsession]

I have a friend that called home so that he could talk to his new big screen HD tv. It went something like this..."Hi tv, it's me. You doing ok? I miss you! I tell you what, tonight I will bring home some take out and we will spend some quality time together. I'll even give you a nice wipe down before we begin. Don't worry, I won't let you know who waste your high def picture on ER. We will watch some football together, hows that? See ya baby" :)

[SoonerInKCMO]

Riiight... a 'friend'.

[Dio]

Does he ever get messages from "Future Dwight"?

[SoonerObsession]

Riiight... a 'friend'.
I wish I had a HD tv!

[GottaHavePride]

If you'd like to make a call, please hang up and try again.
If you need help, hang up and then dial your operator!

[goingoneight]

All-important question: does he return his phone calls to himself?

[soonerbrat]

i don't know but your avatar freeks me out

[sooner_born_1960]

did he bring PB&J this morning?

[soonerbrat]

i don't know..i haven't looked in the fridge yet

[NormanPride]

You forgot the bread, moron. Bye.

BEEP



I'm sorry, I didn't mean that. It's just been a long day at work. Bye.

BEEP

[Osce0la]

yes, he really says "bye" to himself.

Kinda like people never pay for their pizzas on pizza delivery commercials...
