Robocalls

[MaxBuck]

OK, so I've come to terms with telemarketing calls coming to the home phone. And even to the business line.

Now I'm getting robocalls to my cell phone, which even if I don't answer them go against my monthly minutes.

And to make matters worse, I'm getting them on my e-fax line, which interrupts my Windows 7 whenever one of them comes in, preventing me from doing normal shit like working on a Word document.

What is wrong with these devious motherfuckers whose business model requires them to violate federal law? Don't tell me to file a complaint with the FCC, because that's every bit as effective as letting loose with a garlic fart in a hurricane.

Somebody needs to go after these fuckers with a marine 12-volt battery, a pair of alligator clips, and a roadmap to their genitalia.

My dad and other family members keep getting fraud calls from Colorado area codes, for some reason.

The ones they've been getting aren't robocalls, but definitely fraud calls (looking for money or something). They always ask for another family member (not the actual person who they're calling).

Most of mine appear to come from either the Florida panhandle or Las Vegas, to the extent the cocksucking goatfuckers don't spoof either a toll-free number or some vague 4-digit dial code that could originate on Alpha Centauri for all I know.

Wait...monthly minutes? Do you have a rotary cell phone? Who doesn't have unlimited minutes these days?

Maybe they (the Robocall machine) leaves a message or something (causing you to call your voicemail). I haven't a clue.

Wait... you have a home phone and a minute limit on your cell?

You still taking the free AOL CDs at Walmart too?

Between scam emailers, and scam telemarketers, I've definitely rethought my position on capital punishment.

I have a minute limit, but no data limit. So there.

How can I know whether the call is coming from a new potential client if I don't answer the phone?

How's the telemarketer gonna know the same thing if they don't call?

I'm not complaining about human telemarketers; I'm complaining about companies whose business model includes breaking federal law by using robocalling.

Goatfucking cocksucking mouth-breathing wolverine-loving shitbirds, is what they are.

You're robo-racist.
