i used to think it was amusing when people end up calling me 'cause of a wrong number. then i started getting weird phone calls from people trying to find their lost daughter/sister/whatever.

this one lady left a bitch rant on my voicemail. my voicemail message is my bf saying, "queen's too busy to answer the phone right now. she's even got me doing her voicemail."

so the lady left, "what the f**k you talkin' 'bout 'too busy?!' bitch you better get my sister on the phone. i will hunt you down. i will find out who the f**k you are 'cause you ain't got no right no keep my sister away from her family. there are people here who care for her and love her..." ETC ETC ETC

let's just say it continues on for another min and a half? i left that person a text saying she was wasting her breath 'cause she got the wrong number, and to tell all those other people looking for "janice" that i'm not janice.

anyway, what bothers me, is not that i got the message. but the fact that they still think i'm "janice" even though on my voicemail, it clearly says "queen". so i don't know if they're deaf or just assuming i'm using "queen" as a title, but the whole thing just irks me nonetheless.

another example would be on AIM, i keep getting messages for a "colette". i finally found out that this colette girl's friends kept mistaking me for her 'cause her sn is similar to mine (she has a 0 instead of the letter o). again, i don't mind if it was just a simple typo, but these people had "colette's" sn on their buddy lists, and they can't comprehend the difference between a f**king 0 and an o?!

...so anyway, share your stories ;o

After getting my new numbers, I get the most random voicemails in different languages. I had 5 in my inbox one time with the same lady speaking in Spanish. pinch.gif I hate it when that happens.

There was this girl who used to have a similar SN to me, (She's so original, she copied it and changed one tiny detail) and she would go and IM her teacher. Now this teacher was pretty cool and all and he'd talk with all his students online. I guess he knew what mine, was too. Anyways, so one day, the girl with the similar SN IMs him and bothers the hell out of him. She does it for like, a month until he decided to block her. I had a different teacher, but all my friends who had him would be telling me that he's kept saying crap about me and giving me a bad rep. I obviously minded because I was.. 12. It pissed me off that the girl didn't want to say it was her. Every time I go back to the school, the teacher dogs me and acts as if I'm some idiot who doesn't know when to shut up. stubborn.gif

Oh, and this isn't really the same thing, but since my AIM windows are grouped in the specific categories, I always end up saying really weird things to the wrong people. It's like I'm talking to someone in one group and I have another group minimized, and somebody from the minimized group IMs me and I IM the first person in that group. I hate that. I've embarrassed myself SO MANY TIMES. D:


Damn, this is possibly the longest post I've written in a while..
