Am I the only one disturbed that everyone's random thoughts are about chocolate?

Oh no now *my* random thought is about chocolate... quick think of something else.


Why do they make us wait for 2 weeks before giving us our exam results?
Why did Daniel Johns stop making obnoxiously loud music and start making obnoxiously wanky music?
Since when did all my random thoughts become questions?


For the record... the new Nestle chocolate rocks... and i don't like chocolate nearly as much as you lot!

I do, but it usually revolves around chocolate syrup, and where to pour it.

aaaanyway, i think we should really drum up some interest and get some more people to join this forum, cos its really really quiet...and the new nationstates forum is up, and i looked at it, and its just a huge shambles. :S

this foum is really cool, and would be even cooler if there was more than four people online at a time, so encourage other australians to join!

and to keep the chocolate thing going...i think im gonna go eat some :D

Yes, that's me in a toga.
Oh well, here's my random thoughts for today:

1) Man I looked damned good Friday night in my 'pimp-daddy' outfit. Bling bling, pimp hat with feathers, a pimping cane made from a gold-painted broomsticks and a disco ball, a purple babushka. I had passion and effort in going with the disco theme. And it proved to be a mediocre night in the end.

2) My damn cough hasn't abated for the past week or so, it's driving me and the neighbours crazy

3) I wish those damned people from St George stop trying to sell me their life insurance crap on the phone, even though I repeatedly tell them I'm not interested. I wish I had an airhorn to blow down the phone every time they call in future.

4) I'm still worried about what I want to do for sure after I finish up uni.

actually i've always wanted to try this conversation with telemarketers:

Them: "Hi, I'm from [insert company name here] and I was just wondering if I could talk to you about [insert product/service here].

Me: "Oh hi, how are you? Actually I'm kinda busy right now, can I call you back? Whats your home number?"

Them: "Oh, I can't give you my home number."

Me: "Oh, I guess you probably won't want me disturbing you at home then?"

*hang up*



Unfortunately, we now have a silent number at home, so that never happens.

hehe i think its funny to string them along all the way till the end...make them think they have you convinced...then say just say no thanks at the end and hang up...that would have to piss them off, cos theyve just wasted like 30 minutes on the phone to someone who isnt even going to buy...lol :lol:

I often tell them to hold on a minute, then put the phone down, and pick it up again 30 minutes later. you'd be surprised at how many are still on the line after 30 minutes...

Actually, I had one guy who called up, back when we didn't have a private number. I was in a good mood with nothing to do, so when he asked if he could run a survey on me, I said "yeah ok, I'll do it" to which he replied "thats ok, thanks anyway", because he'd obviously been rejected so many times the answer came out automatically....

I corrected him and we did the survey - he sounded cute ;)


lol bweezy, good one! :lol:


....mmm lunch soon, I'm starving!

being a telemarketer would be such a demeaning job...youd be turned down so many times, it wold get really hard and youd have to have a rock hard self esteem! sometimes i cant help but feel sorry for them though...you would have to be pretty desperate for a job to be one, and they would come up against that many different tactics...its almost becoming an art-getting rid of telemarketers...lol :rolleyes:
