How To Make Friends on the Telephone
Dan writes "What a wonderful find--it seems since the internet, we've forgotten the correct way to communicate with people. So here is a book to teach us the proper etiquette, as well as how to handle complex modern communications devices."
"Be sure to give the person you're calling sufficient time to answer his telephone. Wait at least a full minute"
Holy crap. If I didn't want to answer my phone, I'd be pissed if someone just kept letting it ring for a full minute. And I'm pretty sure 99.9% of us don't sit waiting for the phone to ring fifteen times before hanging up. In fact, if you or a machine don't answer within four or five rings, I'm outta there.
By the way - what's up with the retard that drew all the foot-step things in pencil in every other paragraph? What a dick.
I only made it about six pages into it before the article went to non-subscribing slashdotters and then the server stopped loading pages. Nice going motherfuckers. Way to give your paying users time to view shit.
Fucking niggers, Abe Lincoln should've sent them back to Africa instead of setting them free.
