If a man called asking for your wife...?

[trof]

What would YOU say?

(VERY brightly) "HI! Is (Miz t.) there?"
"Who IS this?"
<click...dial tone>

I turned to Miz t.
"A guy just called asking for you. I asked who he was and he hung up. Is there something you'd like to tell me?"
"Yes, would you mind fixing me another drink?"
:rofl:
telemarketers
:eyes:

It just ain't in her nature.

[Skittles]

6. takes a lot to run me out of this place

[Capn Sunshine]

7. you should be on retainer IMO

It's helpful to know when you need an ass kicking.

8. I would shoot the phone in a jealous rage. And then go see my mistress to calm down.

And then, filled with remorse about my hypocrisy, I would probably break it off with my mistress's sister and even apologize for that fling with her mother, or at least be a little more discreet about it. Because it's Christmas dammit and some things are just sacred.


God, I really miss my Don Draper.

[johnnie]

9. I'd be like...

Holy shit! I got a wife?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

10. My dear johnnie!

She snuck up on ya, huh?

:wtf:

[Brother Buzz]

11. Our phone is listed under a fictitious name (cheapest way I know to get an unlisted number )

When they ask for Mrs BB I play along and answer, "speaking". The conversation generally goes downhill from there. No sale.

[HipChick]

12. I got royally cussed out by someone's wife for calling her husband..

Only problem is he works for me and was on call..

[Bucky]

13. Oh my God, you hussy! Just for that you have to wear an extra thick burkha next week.

Shame on you, vile temptress female! Shame!!

[LeftyMom]

14. Something similar happened to me once.

Some seriously irate woman called and cussed me out because she said she knew her husband was fucking around on her, and she found my name and number in his cell phone.

Turned out to be my boss' wife. :rofl: It was news to me that he had one. Anyhow, he sure was fucking around, but not with me. Ick. :puke:

[Giant Robot]

15. True story

Got a call one day before Mrs Robot and I were married, but were living together. Guy asked, "Is Mrs Robot there?"

I replied, "No who the hell is this?"

He said, "This is her father who the hell is this?"

And that was how I first spoke with her father.

[jobycom]

20. Nice.

:rofl:

[janx]

16. My first husband's girlfriend called me once, thinking I was

his current girlfriend. She called me by the wrong name and went into some kind of rage, asking why I had called him. I had talked to this woman before, so I tried calmly to remind her of that.

:shrug:

[guitar man]

17. Take my wife...please!

:rofl: :hi:

[OffWithTheirHeads]

18. Was her first drink broken?

[av8rdave]

19. "Will you pay the shipping?"

[jobycom]

21. A guy called me once and claimed my wife had given him AIDS.

He sounded like a teenager and used her name exactly as it was written in the phonebook which had come out that week. He didn't understand why I kept laughing and saying "Ok."

Got a lot of weird prank calls at that house. Once I got a call about two in the morning from another teenager. Can't remember the exact cliche, but it was something along the lines of "Do you have Prince Albert in a can?" I said "Come on, is that the best you got," and we spent the next half hour chatting about how boring Elgin, Texas was at two in the morning. Kind of miss that town. :)

[RedCloud]

22. You mean like asking for her hand in marriage?

Well he had better ask for the whole deal. I ain't gonna send just a hand.

[Deep13]

23. Who's calling please? ...

He responds with a first name.

From?????

He says it is an organization she supports.

Which one?

He finally says.

Sweetie, do you want to talk to so-and-so from where ever?

She says no, sorry. Hang up.

[WillParkinson]

24. I'd say, "Sure....Paul it's for you!"

And then sit back and laugh.
