[Mr. Jazzy]

I guess they did not want anymore customers behind the 8 ball.

[KoRn]

I’d wager that everyone that is issued a phone number will eventually die.

You heard it here first!

[nhoward14]

This is nothing compared to the body count being racked up by that extremely deadly chemical dihydrogen monoxide.

[isom35]

suspended? phooey! I want to give it to....

[GreenLanternCorps]

So it was the NUMBER! Being a mob boss or drug smuggler had nothing to do with it...

[Larry Lucido]

ELAINE: Bobby, you gotta stop calling your Gammy.

Why?

Because sometimes you call very early in the morning when Gammy has been out late the night before and sometimes when Gammy’s not alone. Your parents still haven’t said anything to you about your Gammy? (sighs)

All right, here we go. (coughing) Gammy doesn’t feel so good. I think Gammy might be dying. Yep. Yep. Ok. Good-bye, Bobby. Don’t call anymore. I’m dead now. Gotta go.

Oh that is a dangerous one and should be banned! *sarcasm*

[Billthedrill]

Hmm...so, yeah, if I were an organized crime member involved in drug smuggling and with hundreds of violent people after me who happened to be professional killers, there’s no way I’d use that phone number. Too dangerous.

[BossLady]

I was gonna say....someone should suspend Russians...but then that has already been taken care of.... LOL!

[G Larry]

“...shot while eating out with a model...”

Post alternate punchlines, if you dare.....

[Touch Not the Cat]

If you believe in things you don't understand....

[VanDeKoik]

Ironically that number would be seen as lucky in China where their phones likely was manufactured.

[PA Engineer]

Who has 0666 666 666?

[JouleZ]

“..Post alternate punchlines, if you dare.....”

I guess he “eight” it. 888 888 88888

The most glaring common thread I see to the deaths is drugs, not the mobile number, but hey, it must be the tin-foil hat on me.

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

That might have been funny at any other website. /h

Ironically that number would be seen as lucky in China where their phones likely was manufactured.

See, it worked, because luckily for the Chinese, this phone was sent to Bulgaria.

[MediaMole]

It doesn’t sound like the number had anything to do with it. Mob boss is a dangerous occupation.

[mountn man]

Call and find out. Probably someone with very large ears with a wife with a very wide...
