Having fun with political polling texts

They are annoying and they are relentless.  I decided to have some fun with them.  Fish and see if I can get responses back.  Some have been successful, some have not.:

I've been lucky on the email front.  Not too much. 

 

But the phone calls have been annoying.  I've taken two strategies:

1) Have a completely different conversation with them than what they are asking.  Like give the steps to change a tire or give them "the talk"

2) Pretend they are calling me to tell me win the lottery.

Lol that almost wants me to accept notifications via texts to do the same sheet lol

The worst is a political text from Barron Trump!  
Would love to tell him what a racist, horse anus loving piece of crap his uncle Joe Biden is.

Got a bunch on my phone. Mind you I have the same number for over 20 years....... Hello Marie...... I'm so and so for blah blah blah dot org. They all are saying this candidate is this or that.

 

I was out in the field on a job with a bunch of down time waiting on a call when one dropped in........ so I  started.

Marie is dead....... 10 mins go by and I get back...... I'm sorry for your loss.

Now I'm like game on !!.... I text back 

No you're not...... all you care about is your quotas...... how did you get this number? Marie has never had this number but yet here you are trying to reach her.... .do you have any idea how much pain and anguish you guys are causing me by reminding me of this heartbreaking fact? Please leave me alone.

About 2 hours go by and I get this long apology saying they got my number from some government list and how sorry they were and is there anything they could do to help.

I was so tempted to reply..... what are you doing for dinner? ...... but I couldn't ...... this gal was all freaked out in her apology as if I were going to jump off a bridge.... so I just let it go.

I think the next one will be about how Marie is in prison.

Supposedly if you reply with "STOP" they are forced to not send you any follow up texts, though sometimes I'm not sure if that makes things worse. At a minimum, you can report them as spam to your carrier.

You were correct, after going over it again and reading through all the BS fine print I finally found the unsubscribe link. As soon as I unsubscribed I got a text about supporting trump though lol. This is ridiculous!

 

This is all the names I had to unsubscribe too!!

Oh, yeah not sure how you help there. You could try replying with STOP but that might just clue them in to that being a valid email address

Am I the only one who has never gotten a text from a campaign?

Probably :lol:

Handz obviously is not my real name. I’m guessing someone created a throw away spam account a while back, used my number, and the Biden team was sold a bad list.
