The other day I had one of these. It said 'unknown caller' and I
usually ignore these but thought I'd entertain it just this one.
It was a bloke from India who started telling me about a new 3G mobile
phone so I let him talk for about a minute before I asked in a
straight-forward, yet enquiring, voice,
"That all sounds well and good, but can I still use it as, you see, the
problem is that I have no penis."
(Big pause from the caller..... before he gets back to his script and
continues)
After another 30 seconds I interrupted and said, "Can I ask... does it
have an attachment so I can put it where my penis should be?"
This went on for about five minutes with the caller getting very
confused and trying to return back to his script and amused me
immensely.
I stopped him again and said, "You do realise I'm taking the piss,
don't you?"
Him: "...I think I'll put you through to my manager to discuss this."
Me: "No, I don't think so, in fact I think you can just *** right off"
and hung up.
They didn't ring back :)
