Chinese Phone Spam
« on: July 06, 2018, 05:36:50 PM »
Three or four times now, I have had an incoming cell call that showed a phone number with 6 digits instead of 7. Area codes are known West Coast numbers. I let these go to voicemail, and that results in a lengthy message in Chinese. Anyone else? How? Why? Ideas? I called my cousin FEng in Beijing and he's doesn't know, either.

Too many Viagra/Cialis orders to overseas distributors I'll guess.

That or watching too many overseas-based FE porn sites. You know, old Galaxies in Beijing, Fairlanes in Hong Kong, etc.

Chinese mafia. They are on to you! Stop flirting with the waitress down at the China King restaurant or else. Try Japanese, much better.

I really wish I had a reason to buy boner buffers. Sadly, as you know, women find me putrid, creepy, and avoidable at all costs. Worse, it is yet another Saturday, and soon I must liquor up to endure another evening of humiliation, castigation, and flagellation, and being flung unto the fiery depths from whence I came.

But, I'm not bitter.

The "waitress" at China Ink (you were close, letter-wise) is a punk in his late teens. Just as well; I'm a to-go customer. The previous waitress had to be at least 80. They just can't figure out that a cutie might bolster biz. As for Japanese girls, I agree they are better, but I haven't seen one in many years. They must not like Arizona. Or, they know I live here.

It's a possibility that Jay ratted me out to the Mafia for calling them chinks, but I can't prove that. I used to have a stoolie chicken in Jay's coop, but he hasn't checked in for a while. Probably got eaten.

Just go to google play on your cell phone and upload for free "Mr.Number." It works like a charm and blocks unwanted calls. There are many call blockers on google play apps. Check it out and be sure and not use the app known as "Mr. Chin?" Lol.

China is the worlds biggest thief when it comes to intellectual property. That's obviously not the case here.  ;)
