I can't close my hands damnit!

3/4 of a 30 gallon trash can full of ripped cardboard boxes (for compost). No piece is bigger than 2x4" and I can no longer grasp my hand closed.. There's still at least 6 more big boxes worth.

I need some creative ideas here =/

I'm really, really sick of being called by people I don't know. For a few months about a year ago or so (I'm guessing) daily, if not 2 or 3 times a day I'd get calls to my cell for some *** named Stacey.. No matter how many times I tell these people they have the wrong number, they'd call back. Same person, same number, I recognized their voices. I've told them time and time again to take me off the list, this is not her number, hasn't been for a year or more, and to stop calling. For whatever reason, ***stopped on it's own, but I had to first endure months of this.

Now, for the past few days my number has been getting blown up again for telemarketer *** and just now, someone called for Stacey again.

Here's where I need creative ideas.. I need stuff that isn't illegal to do over the phone, but at the same time, make things just so ridiculously uncomfortable they'll refuse to call me ever again on principle alone. No guarantee if/when I'll use them, I kinda have to be 'in that mood'.. But I'd like to have a few tricks in my bag for when I am in that mood.

I used to get calls all the time from people looking for the hospital. After a couple years and being woken up at 2am a couple times over it, I started to get a bit snippy. Such as:

Caller: Hello, is this the hospital?

Me: No I'm sorry, you have a wrong number.

Caller: Are you suuuuure this isn't the hospital?

Me: Pretty sure, but for a fee I will give you incorrect medical advice!

After getting sassy a couple times (especially to the people who wouldn't hang up and would insist that my number was the hospital) they stopped. So since it worked for me, I would say start getting snappy with them. They've had months to change the number, they've been told several times that it's the wrong number, and at this point, they've brought the bitchy down on themselves. Get snippy, snappy, sassy, and they will get tired of getting told off and will stop.

No, I ran out of wine early last night and didn't even have enough then to actually get me drunk. I won't be getting another bottle for awhile as I've drank a bit too much this week. Best not to feed the vice.

Hey Narshe, you around? I know I'm not the type to really need PLing, especially these days(I used to hope and pray for it back in like 2005 lol xD), but if there was one thing you could help with me, that I would be eternally and truely grateful for, it would be if you used your superior inventory capacity to help my Bimarcker collect Yagudo Bead Necklaces for ze Utsusemi Ichi fame.
I can help yeah, you're in luck too I just cleaned my mog house out so I can come with 0/80 slots!

Oh I've been snippy in the past, even well beyond that. I've been nice, I've done everything under the sun. One time I didn't even give them a chance to respond or anything, it basically went like

"Hello, we're looking for Stacey xxxx (Can never understand the last name)"
"I'm going to say this once, so listen clearly. I'm *** sick of getting called. I've done told your dumb *** multiple times over the past month that there is no *** here named motherfucking Stacey. Take me off your goddamned call list."

Then I hung up. I also once did one like that but gave them time to respond afterwards. They told me they had never called me before, I asked them to confirm their number, I then proceeded to list off dates and times that this number had called me before. He shut up quick.

Dang, what a persistent bugger. :-( Maybe let it go to voicemail from now on, and then just delete any messages from that number without bothering to have to interact with them. I wish it was as easy to block numbers as it was to block people on Facebook or something, lol.

A man knows when and where to take risks and dance with danger. This is not that time, I'd rather read a book anyway.

Or you can just say I'm not a man. /shrug Whatever floats people's boats.

Got it a bunch about a year ago. Then I held down 7. I haven't heard it since. I assume the trick worked. XP

On someone who mostly favors their defense, (Defensive stat and a LOT of health.) What would be a better boost for them in 1v1 fights? +61.25% Health, or Attack? I have about... 2k~2.5k attack, and about... 13k? Health and hopefully about 3k defense.
