Been getting a lot of calls from an Indian "Fix your PC" service lately. Me and my wife have a game going seeing how long we can keep the poor bastards on the line, without them realizing we sure aren't gonna give them access.

Right now I own the record with 22 minutes.

I wasn't that patient. After I asked him for the third time what the point of the call was and what he was trying to sell me, he said, "Sir, we're not selling anything. This is an awareness call to PC users in your town of [whatever]." At that point I decided I had better things to do than jerk the poor guy around.

*phone rings, I answer*

“How did you find me?”

“*confused voice* Wha-what?”

“Who are you working for? Who sent you?”

“*More confusion* I’m calling to see if yu are interested in-”

“What do you know about project Arc Bow?! *to the room away from phone* They’re on their way! Abort! Abort!” *HANG UP*

ROTFL

My wife and I play the same game. Every time they call I say, “oh my, can you help me?”. Then they would tell me to do some things and I mess them up. “Press F1” Okay, I pressed the F key and the 1 key. Now what? Hey, I have a key on my keyboard that looks like a little Microsoft flag. What does it do? Am I really supposed to take a nap when my computer tells me to go into sleep mode?

Eventually they hang up.

22 minutes is impressive. Do you ever do relay teams or is strictly that solo efforts?
