      This is real incident that happened to my relative (a lady) who was not English educated many many years ago:


      Ring ring…Lady picked up hse phone:

      Lady: Hello…
      Man : Hello…how are you?
      Lady: what…what…
      Man (started to groan) and whispered: Do you like to play…
      Lady: Aargh? what what? I cannot hear…talk talk loud loud
      Man (more groans) : I like you to play
      Lady (silent and puzzled why man asked her to "pay")
      Man : (continued with whispering): Do you like to "masterbed" (sounds like that)?
      Lady (began to connect the word "pay" with the word "masterbed" and so answered : I do not want to buy any masterbed. I already got one already.
      Man …clicked…phone went dead…

      Lady then asked me when I reached home later why a strange man called to ask her to buy "masterbed"…I had a good laugh and had a tough time explaining to her that what the word actually meant.

        This is rather common.


        Got a call from China those "scam companies"

        Lady : Xiao jie, ni hui jiang hua yi ma?
        Me : Bu hui
        and I just hang up.

        A friend’s mum cannot speak english, she can only say "I don’t know".
        Man : Auntie, do you know how to speak english?
        Auntie : I don’t know
        Man : But you just answered me in english
        Auntie : I don’t know
        and this just goes on.

            Seems like you guys/gals are very nice people, to have time for seemingly wrong-number calls. I’m quite bad when it comes to this - very abrupt, with 3 words (sorry, wrong number) and hang up. If the same number comes ringing, I’ll turn-off the call.


            And I do not return calls that does not appear in name i.e. not in my phonebook. If it’s important enough, the caller will call back.

                  I visited a friend many years ago and her DH was chatting on the phone for about an hour. I asked my friend whom he was talking to as they sounded like very good friends.


                  Me: your DH is very chatty for a man. Who is he talking to?
                  Friend: Not anybody he knows.
                  Me: :? You meant not anybody you know?
                  Friend: It's not anybody he knows. It's a wrong number.
                  Me: :!: Why is he chatting with the caller?
                  Friend: He always does that. He'll tell the caller it's a wrong number at the end of the conversation.
                  Me: Like that also can? :faint:

                  There's another one but the one who got the wrong number is me. :stupid:
                  Me (dialled DH no) : Hello, are you coming back for dinner?
                  Other party: Yes, yes, will be back later.
                  Me: ok see you later

                  Later...
                  DH called.
                  DH: Hello, I've got a meeting and can't make it for dinner.
                  Me: But you just told me less than 5 mins ago that you'll be back. :x
                  DH: Huh? you didn't call me just now. :?
                  Me: :oops: That guy must have mistaken me for his wife.

                        wow like that also can ...

                        this one sure ABC.

                        maybe it is someone from your school, using lame tactics trying to know you.
                        Not ABC...ABD....A Bery Desperate man.

                        Not possible to be someone from my school because I was already out of school for 4 years and the kind of dialogue told my guts that he could not be anyone I had crossed path anywhere before. It was truly a bizarre wrong number. :siao:
