So, I used to live in Lowell, MA. (pause to collect sympathies from those familiar with the area) One of the more charming things about the particular place we were in - besides the dope dealer down the hall and the fire alarms every 3-4 nights - was the fact that every few days we would get calls for someone looking for Crystal.
Persistant calls.
One girl refused to believe me when I told her that Crystal did not live there. She argued with me, citing the fact that Crystal had apparenty written this number on her hand. I was dumbfounded. Was there a third, unknown person living in our apartment? Careful searches turned up no sign of them. Eventually, either Crystal learned her own phone number or her friends got sick of talking to me, and the calls tapered off.
We have since moved to Pittsburgh (a much nicer place) and left Crystal's friends behind.
...or so we thought.
I just got another call for Crystal.
I'm done politely telling people they have a wrong number. Now I want to play with their heads. I'm looking for things I can do - not illegal, not threatening, just strange.
Here's a few ideas I had:
1. Get their name and number. Assure them that Crystal will call them back. Next time someone calls for Crystal, claim she moved out. Give them the number of the previous caller.
2. Claim to be Crystal. Say that the hormones are affecting my voice.
3. Ask if they are "the clinic" calling with the results of her tests.
Any others?
