I would have put this on the "Its sacrilicious" thread, but I don't think many people would believe me on this if I did. So, I decided to create a new thread, which fully explains what happened. I don't know if you all know this, but currently I am working at a call center for AOL. The following, of course, is part of a prank call.

At around Midnight, I got a call from God.

"Hello, thank you for calling America Online, my name is Nathan, are you calling to set up your free trial of America Online."

"Nope. I just have a..."

"Ok, once again my name is Nathan, can I have your name please?"

"I am the Almight God."

"Ok God, could you tell me a little about why you are calling?"

"I have come to get you to repent." (you think God would have a better sentence)

"Ok, could you tell me a little more about that problem." (since this is part of the script, and I didn't really want to hang up just yet, I thought it appropriate)

"Well... Nathan, did you say?"

"Yep"

"Nathan! You have commited adultry and other deadly sins!"

"Really now?"

"YES!"

"Well, God, if I promise to repent, can I set you up with a 2 month free trial?"

"No thanks, I'm not interested in AOL."

God enjoys calling up AOL to bring souls unto Him, but he just isn't interested in a 2 month free trial. And in any case, he already had an account. God's AOL screen name involves the word young, a misspelling of love and a number.

Maybe He's just upset because you only get 1080 hours in which to use up your 1045 free hours.

Every post in this thread is comedy gold. [Big Grin]

You should have asked him if he wanted to be put through to Lucifer. We all know Lucifer works with AOL [Wink]

He is always signing up for the free trials and then cancelling before He has to pay me.

I suppose I got off lucky. The girl next to me, after we clocked out, complain of a guy who called up saying "Oh... your voice is so... sexy... oh... I'm stroking it... oh... oh.."

Although, I could have had fun with that one, I think.

By putting him through to a conference call with God, of course.

If he was God, why did he have to ask about your name?

And here I thought he was calling you about flipping so many people off lately. Or at least flipping a few people off many times...

Well, since the merger to Time/Warner, AOL has been spreading a bit of Hell everywhere.

God is here to teach us all a lesson. Obviously we were ignorant of the fact that not only is Nathan married, he's cheating on his wife!!

Shame on you, T...

I felt like bumping an old thread, because I've never done it before. So I chose this one.

Does Mack know about this, Nathan?

For me, it's ancient history, not nostalgia. [Smile]

Bah, it wasn't even creative.

You expect people manning AOL call centers to be used to much worse.

I think that may have been me.

Tell me, did the guy who called have a really sexy voice?
