Arrow Have you received a cellphone call and ...

had the person say, "I was just walking to work and thought I'd give you a call ... " Or some derivation?

So nice of you to set aside time to talk. Assholes.

No, but I wouldn't mind if someone did. I hate long phone calls, so having someone call while they're on their way from Point A to Point B sounds pretty ideal to me.

Well, that's not really the point. I mean it's the thought, and that they shouldn't be wasting my time with frivolous matters anyway ...

Hey Jason. Sorry I told you earlier I was signing off for the night when I so obviously did not. I was going to get a haircut, then it got delayed, then I got it and decided to stay up anyway.

i get phonecalls from random places about once a month.. and they ask for someone and it's never the same name they ask for or state theyre calling from but i still think it must be some elaborate prank because everyone knows how much i hate talking on the phone.

to answer the thread question, no. nobody calls me unless they want to see me or they want something from me. bastards. if someone called me on their way to work for no reason i would probably tell them i left a pie in the oven.

why would you get upset over that?

i love to call people if i'm stuck in traffic, or walking somewhere, or if i have a little bit of free time. i wish they called me like that too, i guess it makes me feel good if someone's thinking about me..

because i don't like wasting airtime talking about nothing?

if someone's really thinking about me and wants to make a gesture, they'll send me a note in the mail or something more quaint. it feels more special than an "i'm buying time" phonecall.

I don't much like when people call me.
Whenever the phone rings at home I always think "WTF does this person want!? I'm trying to watch '2 and 1/2 Men' and eat cheetos!"

Speaking of cellphone calls... I hate nothing more than waking up, just to find out that I apparently talked to someone in half-sleep and don't remember anything about it.
