All new way to reject people...
 

So here's the scenario: You're out at a bar, riding transit, or even just walking down the street, and some bozo who desperately wants into your pants starts up a conversation with you. Rather than make a scene or make them upset, you're polite and at least nod at the proper times. Then, of course, they ask you for your number. Except this is 2004, so maybe they ask for your email address instead.

That's where this comes in handy - give them a paper napkin.

and just in case you thought that was messed up...

..and if you thought that was bad...

Can't you just tell them to fuck off?

works wonders for me.

Heh, funny idea this papernapkin e mail address - but I won't need it, if I'm not interested in a person, I simply won't give them my e mail address and tell them honestly in person, it's kind of mean to get up the hopes of someone like that. Besides that, no one has ever just walked up to me and asked me for my e mail address - or phone number for that matter. :D

just give them "your" phone number

if u have never called...its hilarious

@mikm below...yeah i figured this was old news. but then again, everything in the web just gets recycled..."if i havent seen it, its new to me" type thing.

And I thought I was crafty with the old...
"Sure, I'll give you my phone number. It's: 4-5-6 - 7-8-9-10".

:p

(And yes, this has actually worked before.)

Unfortunatley, neither the phone number service nor the email service are new. It was posted about a month ago.

Yep, that's the way to go I guess. Not that I'd need to, so far nobody's asked for my number yet. At least no female...


/oh wait, there was one girl about four months ago, but she wasn't my type really.

That is the funniest website I have ever come across. I called one of the phone numbers and the recording is so hilarious.

he he yeah im glad it amused someone else...i used it once on an old gf who wanted my dorm phone number..lol it was great.

*walks up*
What's your email address?


Rejection hotline is cool. No, I did not find out about it through experience, you'd have to ask for a number first :D

Whenever someone from shoutcast forums IM's me, I tell them I'm busy, call me on the phone, and I give em that number and iggy them :D Strange? yes.

Excuse me miss, may I have your phone number and e-mail address?

:D

Shit, I should have asked for the phone number, not the email. xD

Can't you just give the number of the local morgue?

:D Somehow I knew that would happen. Two people in this forum have my phone number and I would like to leave it that way ;) Thanks for asking though. :p

Mia:)

It was worth a try :)

Two people... that you know of.

Queue scary hacker music (or something)...

Being out working with the public in different towns, I get asked for my phone number all the time. I am usually polite about it, but I can think of a few times over the years that I would have loved to have known about the rejection hotline!

We've all seen your pic so this is probably a smart move. Your phone would never stop ringing otherwise.

I thought the squirrels thing was hilarious. What a waste of a domain name though.

I second that one!

That's a good point. Of course it could apply to any of five other women here I can think of, too.
