    plus a text asking me who I am, as they had discovered it in their phone. I thought of replying with the Inigo Montoya line, but then decided to leave it up to you guys, so long as it doesn't convey a sense of rape.

    So, what do I say?

    Tell them to say who they are, if not, f*ck off.


  • Registered Users Posts: 225 ✭✭Chips Ahoy


    Text him "I'm Gotham's reckoning"

    Did you happen to go out and get sloshed in the last week?

    If yes, it's the minger you were with.

    If not, tell them they have the wrong number.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,968 ✭✭✭✭Praetorian Saighdiuir


    Just go with the Liam Neeson speech in Taken.

    Or

    Call them and thank them for the rough ass tearing bum sex the other night and ask if the dog is ok after choking on your ballbag while licking peanut butter off them.

    Decided to go with a bunch of Darkwing Duck quotes.


    Also, I did go out and get drunk, but I'm too ugly to hook up with someone, let alone have them ask for my number.

    Ah now don't be like that. Maybe you got crafty and entered your number into her phone so she thinks you're her dream man ;)

    The odd time I get a "Whos Dis?" and I'll reply with "Don't know anyone called Dis, sorry"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,443 ✭✭✭Bipolar Joe


    So they think the response was amazing. Asked them what the name attributed to the number was, and for them to change it appropriately.

    I get these weird texts on my phone from time to time - as well as quite a few wrong numbers - typically from South-East Asian people. The calls are fine, I just say you've got the wrong number and then hang up.

    The texts are a bit more odd though as they keep coming from the same guy. I think he's black. Anyway, they're in this kind of street language, and will start will stuff like 'yo' and so on.

    I kept replying with 'this is a wrong number' but the texts kept coming. So, as normal one day, I got another one. It was the evening before the Spain-Italy match. I get a text saying 'hey bro I'm coming over to your place early to watch the Spain-Italy game.' I was in the back of a taxi with a few minutes to kill so decided to have a little fun. I responded 'sure come on over, hell, there are a few beers in the fridge - go nuts!'

    Then I get a bbm from my GF telling me 'oh did I mention that ____ is coming over for the Spain-Italy game?'

    Grrrr...

    I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you. They probabaly won't text you back EVER AGAIN


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,204 ✭✭✭dodderangler


    Ah ya missed the classic line of them saying who's this
    You reply 'YOUR WORST ****ING NIGHTMARE'

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,443 ✭✭✭Bipolar Joe


    Yeah, and now I might have a new music project to work on, so hooray!

    Be honest and proud and tell 'em you're Bipolar Joe.

    Just to say even though it's too late.. sometimes you can ring into their voicemail greeting by putting a 5 after the first 3 digits i.e. 0875 or 0865...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 328 ✭✭BlueSmoker


    Ask them now they got Batmans** private mobile, and what did they did to him


    Then explain to them that you are his nemisis**, and you have already tracked them down and our now going to use them as fun bait.

    Now let your imagination go riot :D

    ** use whatever superhero you feel like, just ensure their nemisis is accurate


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,652 ✭✭✭fasttalkerchat


    This is me. Is that you?


    ^^^^ say that :D

    Ah its' yourself is it?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 27 janiceross


    I suggest you don't reply at all. I bet they're checking to see if you're a potential victim. They may be scammers or pranksters. Let them wait for your response all they want but just ignore them.

    I know that all of my threads are totally awesome and full of reasons why I'd make a fantastic life partner, but this really didn't need to be bumped.
