When cancelling online services over the phone

Today I decided to go through and cancel some of the recurring billing items that I rarely use or no longer use. (yes I am one of those people to lazy to cancel a charge every month)

On the call, the representative always asks you why you are cancelling. I have found it is fun to tell them that you were just convicted of 5 counts of felony murder and that their service is not accesible in federal prison.

It's almost enough fun to make me want to cancel more accounts today.

OMG that's funny. I am going to do that; I have a recurring bill right now for credit report monitoring and I'm going to tell them that I've been convicted of 5 counts of murder and a credit report ain't going to do me much good on death row.

Fun at the movies.

I like going up to box offices and pretending something I'm not.

1. Asian - I've gone up to box offices with a thick Japanese accent (which I am clearly not) and had the person NOT EVEN LOOK AT ME ONCE.

2. Retarded- I wore a bike helmet and a bright jacket to the movie theatres to see a serial killer movie and, drooling, pretended I was retarded. Not only the ticket taker, but EVERYONE REFUSED TO MAKE EYE CONTACT. It was like owning a force field.

:D People are funny.
