[QUOTE="OnOff, post: 402794, member: 16173"] If they sound foreign: - In response to them asking my name (which I don't give) I ask and usually get theirs - Still without confirming my real name I inform them I am [B]Rajesh Ramayan[/B][COLOR=rgb(37,37,37)] [/COLOR][B]Koothrappali[/B] but they can call me Raj. - I then say I don't believe their name's "Nigel" and that it's probably Lachwinder, Apu etc and that they're no doubt calling from a call centre in Mumbai I then change tack and start ordering off the curry menu "[B][I]Sorry can I change the jalfrezi from a chicken to a king prawn and the keema to a peshwari?[/I][/B]" Usually there's a a stunned silence and I'll offer to talk for as long as they like if they can hang on whilst I go grab a beer as it's not my phone bill and it's not me who won't make my quota. Asking whether they prefer Redtube or Youporn, followed by whether they click Gay or Straight usually gets them to hang up. Haven't had nearly as many of late for some reason.......... [/QUOTE]
