To be honest I did it a couple of times when I was a kid, sort of like Bart Simpson does on the tv show The Simpsons lol! When I was a young divorced woman, there was this nut case I met one time (this was more like stalking) he would call me at my job then the ass somehow got my phone number and say really weird and stupid things to me. Then a friend came over to watch my baby girl while I went out, the nut called while I was gone whatever she said to him probably scared the shit out of him and he never called again. Oh and I did report this to the cops but they didn't do much of anything to stop it.
When my husband was in rehab, I got a phone call, it sounded like it was from a bar and I believe it was from some of my husbands drinking buddies. They apparently set the phone down so everyone could tell me how horrible it was that my husband was getting help. HELLO! my hubby tried to commit suicide over his problems and a judge sent him to get help. Thank God he did otherwise he would be dead now. He has been sober & no longer gambles it has been about 3 years.
