anger management - funniest email I have received in a long time
When you occasionally have a really bad day, and you just need to take
it out on someone, don't take it out on someone you know, take it out
on someone you don't know.

I was sitting in my bar room when I remembered a phone call I'd
forgotten to make. I found the number and dialed it. A man answered,
saying "Hello."

I politely said, "This is Max. Could I please speak with Robyn
Carter?"

Suddenly a manic voice yelled out in my ear "Get the right number!" and
the phone was slammed down on me.

I couldn't believe that anyone could be so rude.
When I tracked down Robyn's correct number to call her, I found that I
had accidentally transposed the last two digits.

After hanging up with her, I decided to call the 'wrong' number again.

When the same guy answered the phone, I yelled "You're an asshole!" and
hung up. I wrote his number down with the word 'asshole' next to it,
and put it in my cell phone.

Every couple of weeks, when I was paying bills or had a really bad day,
I'd call him up and yell, "You're an asshole!"

It always cheered me up.

When Caller ID was introduced, I thought my therapeutic "asshole
calling"
would have to stop.

So, I called his number and said, "Hi, this is John Smith from Verizon Cellular.
I'm calling to see if you're familiar with our Caller ID Program?"

He yelled "NO!" and slammed down the phone.

I quickly called him back and said, "That's because you're an asshole!"

One day I was at Wal-Mart, getting ready to pull into a parking spot.

Some guy in a black BMW cut me off and pulled into the spot I had
patiently waited for. I hit the horn and yelled that I'd been waiting
for that spot, but the idiot ignored me. I noticed a "For Sale" sign
in his back window which included his phone number, so I wrote down the
number.

A couple of days later , right after calling the first asshole (I had
his number on speed
dial) I thought that I'd better call the BMW asshole, too.
I said, "Is this the man with the black BMW for sale?"

"Yes, it is", he said.

"Can you tell me where I can see it?" I asked.

"Yes, I live at ----- Palm Lane, Ft. Myers, Fl. It's a yellow house,
and the car's parked right out in front."

"What's your name?" I asked.

"My name is Don Hansen," he said.

"When's a good time to catch you, Don?"

"I'm home every evening after five."

"Listen, Don, can I tell you something?"

"Yes?"

"Don, you're an asshole!" Then I hung up.

Now, when I had a problem, I had two assholes to call.

Then I came up with an idea. I called Asshole #1.

"Hello."

"You're an asshole!" (But I didn't hang up.)

"Are you still there?" he asked.

"Yeah," I said.

"Stop calling me," he screamed.

"Make me," I said.

"Who are you?" he asked.

"My name is Don Hansen."

"Yeah? Where do you live?"

"Asshole, I live at -----Palm Lane, Ft. Myers, Fl, a yellow house, with
my black Beamer parked in front."

He said, "I'm coming over right now, Don. And you had better start
saying your prayers."

I said, "Yeah, like I'm really scared, asshole,"
and hung up.

Then I called Asshole #2. "Hello?" he said.

"Hello, asshole," I said.

He yelled, "If I ever find out who you are..."

"You'll what?" I said! .

"I'll kick your ass," he exclaimed.

I answered, "Well, asshole, here's your chance.
I'm coming over right now."

Then I hung up and immediately called the police, saying that I lived
at -----Palm Lane, Ft. Myers, Fl, and that I was on my way over there
to kill my gay lover.

Then I called Channel 2 News about the gang war going down on Palm Lane.

I quickly got into my car and headed over to Palm Lane
I got there just in time to watch two assholes beating the crap out of
each other in front of six cop cars, an overhead police helicopter and
a news crew.

NOW I feel much better.

2. OMG, I have been looking for this for awhile now
I first saw it posted on Michael Moore's website. It's so freaking hilarious.

3. Ah, I like that person's methods.
That would be fun to do just once...or twice.

4. Very funny!
I'm not sure how true it is, though. Even though the two 'assholes' may not know about Caller ID, the cops certainly do. Once they pried the assholes apart and took their statements, they'd quickly realize a third party had set the situation up. The cops would only have to get copies of the assholes' phone bills, find the same calling number on both, request the subscriber details from the cellphone company and, bang, multiple charges for harrassment, misuse of telephony services, incitement, verbal assault, etc.

You definitely want to get an anonymous pay-as-you-go phone if you want to do this for real. Then throw it away when you've finished harrassing the assholes.

10. Wow, you've given this a lot of thought...
..thanks for the tip about the pay-as-you-go phone. Though, I suppose the video cameras at the stores where they are purchased would give a person away...hmm...

Enough thinking for one night...

It's still hilarious!

:rofl:

11. Oh yes, I take my revenge fantasies very seriously.
You never know when you might have to put one into practice. It's good to be prepared. :)

5. I could have laughed at that ten years ago
I don't need that kind of humor to pull bugs out of my ass anymore, and I'm really fucking glad.

6. What DO you need to pull bugs out of your ass?
tongs?

(Sorry. I'm not familiar with that phrase and it made me laugh)

7. I've been wondering for the longest time what time of humor
would get those bugs pulled out of my ass.

8. Perhaps a better question:
Why are there bugs in your ass?

Are they dung beetles?

12. ROTF
Well, I pulled that metaphor out of thin air. I didn't realize it would draw any attention. It seemed to fit the situation: remove enraging irritation.

15. I usually use the "ignore" feature to remove enraging irritations.
It's the internet version of ass-tongs.

17. I used to get phone calls from the same group of
giggling Spanish-speaking children when I lived in Chicago. They would mock me in broken English. It was actually kinda funny. Then one day I spoke to them in Tongan. Sadly, they never called me again.
