How do you answer those constant unwanted offers that keep popping up on your cell phone?



Answer Your Cell Phone

The evils of new technology, I’m sure you’ll all agree,
Cell phone questions is the winner, but my answers frighten me,

They said no advertisements; I know now, I was had,
A complicated snow job, to hit me with an Ad,

Blocking all the robo’s now, that was really tough ,
But, sometimes I got a people and that was easy stuff,

Hello, ain’t this Hell ? I thought I pressed your number one,
I’m gonna hang up on you, our conversation’s done,

No I don’t buy tickets and I’ll miss your Fireman’s ball,
You see, I don’t do donations, the government takes it all,

A contribution for the elderly, What’s this all about?
Do you have my address? I’m good for any hand out,

A mortgage loan for upgrades, Yes Sir! you can bet!
I gotta move my out house. How much can I get?

Solar panels free of cost, yeah, I’ll take every one you got,
At my yard sales, I can tell you, they are really hot,

A rally for the candidates? Where’s this Farmer’s Market at?
Never heard of candy dates , what kinda fruit is that?

An e-mail survey for the doctor, make it short and plain,
Sorry I don’t have e-mail stamps, and they probably cost a pain,

Virus’s protection , yeah ,I know what that’s about,
I’ve got so many new ones now, they wipe each other out,

Yeah , I heard your special offer and the download’s free I know,
But the offer isn’t , my free upload is No!

I feel your pain and your phone ringing in my ears. The last time I had a clear phone service must have been years. Glad I don't have a cell phone, but I still get stupid calls.

While I was commiserating with you, I read that word, candy dates, and cracked up!

You shouldn't send me those funny bombs. Libel to have a heart attack.

I'm not saying anything,Tom, until...well, until you stop writing not-so-very-funny stories: i'm the guy who's calling you just to rile/rub you up the wrong way. Time you got serious again ! This's the last warning... Best. TW

Most are scam calls nowadays. I usually don't pick it up when I don't know the caller. I would let it go to the beep and they usually won't leave a message anyway. If the same number called too many times I would block it.
