Epic Reine 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2005 I really hate the ones where people try to act like wrestlers or celebrties. A few years back, I had a friend who had Booker T's entrance music in the background and him saying: "Yo, dis is the 5 time WCW Champion, leave a message suckaaaaaaaaa!" That was pretty bad, but the worst goes to: "Hey, you know the drill, holla one, peace in the middle east!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt Young 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2005 My former "friend" (aka really annoying pseudo-intellectual dickwad acquaintance who wouldn't leave me alone) had George's infamous answering machine song on his cell phone voice mail, with the only change being that the guy recorded himself stating his name over Geroge's. God, that was annoying. Good thing I only called him when I needed alcohol or a ride to the local wrestling shows. I also hate when people play 2 minutes of a song I do not wish to hear as their message. They don't even say anything... It's just 2 minutes straight of some really shitty music.

Guest eBayBrison Report post Posted January 28, 2005 I also hate when people play 2 minutes of a song I do not wish to hear as their message. They don't even say anything... It's just 2 minutes straight of some really shitty music. This is exactly what I was going to post. One of my friends once decided to put that one song "If you want my body, and you think I'm sexy.......... BLAH BLAH" song and it just kept going ON and ON and ON and ON. The first time I heard that I waited the whole length of time just to tell her to get that shit off her VM. Brison Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2005 What's worst about that is that it doesn't even record clearly. If I could tell what the music was sometimes I might not mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DVD Spree Report post Posted January 28, 2005 I did some summer work at a mental health trust a while ago, and I had to call a health worker to give him some bad new about a patient. He was on duty, but his work phone was busy. I got his voicemail: "DIS IS DEE GOVAH NAYTAH. I CAN'T GET TO DEE PHONE RIGHT NOW BECAUSE I AM DOING SERIOUS BISNISS, BUT LEAVE YOU NAME AND I WILL CALL YOU BAAAAAAACK." So inappropriate, so amusing.

It's just 2 minutes straight of some really shitty music. Yeah, I hate that garbage too. This song was "Holla back at me, uh uh, Holla back at me, uh uh" for the next 2-3 minutes. It was amusing at first, but any emergency would have to wait for this guy to shut up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2005 I was at the movies with some friends a few months ago. This gang of kids were sitting several rows ahead of us. Their cell phones kept ringing, I guess they kept calling each other. The one phone had this rap song that would play everytime it rang. But the worst part was before the song, some rapper would yell super loud... "PLEASE ALLOW ME TO RE-INTRODUCE MYSELF!" This happened like 5 times before the obscenities and ice were launched at the little shits, silencing them for good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mine on my old phone was just me in a monotomous voice going "BEEEEEEP". I'm sure it pissed off a few people Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr. Tom 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2005 What irritates me is when a couple has a baby and then mentions the baby on the answering machine message. Like anyone is calling to talk to a fucking infant. It also irritates me that people still bother explaining the whole "leave your message after the beep" thing. Who doesn't know to do that? DId someone sleep thru the last 20 or so years of answering machines? Mine's simple: "Hey, it's Tom, you know what to do. And if you don't, I didn't want to talk to you, anyway."

Modern Man's Hustle 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2005 People that do that "oh, I'm talking to you but i'm not really here you're talking to my voicemail" message. I fucking hate that. And people that QUOTE songs in their message. A friend of mine says this, "Hey, this is, uh, Hank....it's Independance Day and I just can't break away from the parade, so uh...haha...leave me a message." If you're going to quote a Dylan, quote a good Dylan, I say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2005 My mom used to let my brother record the message, when he was rather young, and he would include the cat when listing off who lived there. Except the cat's name was Jeff, so my dad would call and say "When did your mother let this Jeff move in?" Quite funny. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
