I have just the opposite problem. They keep calling me and they never seem to remember that I already bought one from them. Still, the sales people are extremely patient when I list off all the problems with one of my vehicles and ask about every single excruciating detail about what their coverage offers. Sometimes I'll get distracted and start talking about my fish. They are pretty fish too! One is a goldfish and the other is a beta. The beta is a silly little thing and likes to jump out of the water when it is about to get fed. She'll even try to give you kisses if you put your nose really close to the water. The goldfish though.. eesh. I think I have had him for about 5-6 years already. We tried to put him in with a beta once, but Goldie tried to kiss Nuggets and missed and swallowed her by mistake. Oops! I feel bad about Nuggets, but mistakes happen. After we put him on time out for a bit, we think he learned his lesson. Does anyone else have tips to keep bully fish tame? We have tried everything, but nothing seems to work. We'll get it right one day. My kids think I am crazy, but that is OK. Oh, I gotta tell you about what my kids did the other day! .....

Sounds like Beta and Goldie are getting along, ish, fish. But what did your kids do?

Kids? I have kids?

Drive out into the desert and find a phone booth. Park next to it. The phone will ring. Pick it up. 50/50 shot it's them or your student loan officer.

I know a guy that does extended warranties. You should give him a call, his name is Sam Likely.

Oh shit. He's been trying to call me. I am always busy. I have been talking to a Nigerian prince about his troubles and I will be going down to help him out soon, after I send him a wee bit of cash to help him.

Well, since you like giving money...

Have no idea, I just want a mini lathe, but since I don't have the funds, I haven't even browsed for one 😂. This one popped up on google image search 🤷.

Similar problem here. I've invented a pill that actually does make your penis 30% larger with no side effects, but nobody seems interested in investing in scaling up production.

Wow, that could get me a whole .10 of an inch more length! incredible!

It all started when a friend and I were cruising down the street in his brand new Ferrari. You see, he ran a website with an award for the one millionth visitor. It had a flashing banner popup with sound and everything, but nobody registered to claim the Ferrari. That's when it dawned on me that someone should actually do some research into penis enlargement pills, and the answer was surprisingly simple. To make one you just need to use this one weird trick, discovered by a mom.
