I received two calls last night from an ‘unknown number’ and when I answered they hung up both times. This is fairly common for me, as being the person that I am and running the websites that I do I make a lot of enemies.
Naturally when I received TWO calls from an unknown number and they both hung up my ‘digital ears’ started to burn. This always means that somewhere, on a forum, there is a discussion going on among idiots about how I’ve somehow insulted them and how they’ll get me back by crank calling me. They’ll have posted my contact details from the Whois on one of my sites and will think it’s hilarious that they’re phoning me and hanging up.
So, whoever you are this time, don’t hang up. You have my number, grow some testicles and say something on the phone. Better yet, don’t withold your number. Let’s have a chat and see what intelligent comments you’ve got to share. You might even make one of my famed podcasts.
