HA that's really funny. Years ago I used to work at Jenny Craig as a receptionist and we would get a ton of prank calls from kinds and we just couldn't handle it anymore. Finally one of the regional managers came in for the day to answer the phones to get a handle on what we were complaining about. Finally after about 50 calls in one day this conversation occured
Manager; Hello thank you for calling JC how can I help you
Kid: I'm fat and ugly and I need help
Manager: yes but how can I help you sir?
Kid: I'm fat and ugly and I need help
Frustrated manager: Well the fat we can help you with but the ugly you're stuck with
Hangs up.

THAT'S HILARIOUS!! Next time pretend to be that person. My brother use to do that when we got wrong numbers and the person calling would be so confused.
wait, was she really using obviously fake names like betty boop? or just other random names? who has the time to do that kind of stuff? who is older than 12...
