What’s the weirdest phone call you have ever received?

I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

Sure no problem officer.

What are your thoughts on the trend of Americans labeling themselves as "TikTok refugees" and migrating to the Chinese social media platform RedNote (Xiaohongshu)?

Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.

I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.

No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.

Why did it take seven days for troops with helicopters, equipment, supplies, food, and water to be dispatched to southeast storm zones?

Yes sir it is.

HELLO

My ex got into a relationship within 2 weeks after a breakup. What should I do?

After a few moments he returns.

Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.

Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?

I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.

ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?

What are some common examples of human hypocrisy?

Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
