Yes, it’s another of those spammy scammy text exchanges. Lately they haven’t been playing along with my improvs very well, but this one tried a bit more than most. I really thought my first comment regarding a visible erection might put them off but it did not. In the end I stopped the conversation withContinue reading “Camping? Camping!”

Wrong Number? No!
I actually missed her second text that claimed it was a “wrong number,” since I was determined to keep on going with the original premise—that I was Aunt Mary. But my repetition did get her to stop.
Repeat the Rinse
This is a new one. I’ve gotten it four times now. The first two came days apart but these showed up in my messages list one above the other. Talk about using a template! And being vague…
Wrong Answer!
Lately I’ve become more persnickety in my responses to the wrong number texts as these examples will demonstrate. That ended that conversation; sometimes the halt is abrupt., but not always. In the above example I used AI to respond poetically. Two Anne’s at the same time…double-barreled Annie’s? I just want to wish Richard on eHarmonyContinue reading “Wrong Answer!”
Wrong Number!!!
My best estimate is that so far this year I’ve had two dozen “wrong number” messages, either by text, WhatsApp, or telegram. They keep trying, and I keep trying to be amused by it, but sometimes they just don’t want to play. For example: No further response. This one got a little farther., after IContinue reading “Wrong Number!!!”
Catching Up On SpamScams
They have been unusually busy lately, the “wrong number” scammers that I’ve been talking about for awhile. I don’t know if they need to entrap more for some holiday quota or what’s going on; last weekend I had 15 of them from Friday to Sunday. Some of them are fascinating from the perspective that, beforeContinue reading “Catching Up On SpamScams”
Welcome to My Blog, AI Scum
I still don’t know if these “wrong number” texts are AI, bots, or real people just sitting behind a laptop somewhere in a Third World country… I guess it doesn’t really matter, but I’m getting a little tired of the rote responses. Improvising with them just isn’t as much fun anymore.
Dozens and Dozens
So I’ve gotten that many of those “wrong number” texts but, like the oysters in Alice in Wonderland, they keep coming quick and fast. Meanwhile, I keep trying to find ways to play with them and/or short circuit them with the weapon of improv. Here are the two latest examples. My last comment stopped theContinue reading “Dozens and Dozens”
Fly Off the Wall
I keep trying to be weirder and weirder with these wrong number texts, but they just can’t cope. It’s always back to the script.
Mr. Frreeeeze!
It’s like a cat toy that you put down, and the cat hits it under the dresser. No play! Where’s the fun in that? Spam, Scam, Telegram!
