Overdrive!!

Monday, June 19, 2006

My friend and I were talking yesterday about a prank call he received recently. He said he felt as though he was transported back to his past because well, you usually receive prank calls when you're a teenager.

This then led to me relating my story, as a teenage guy, to him. How naive and foolish I was. Back in the past, the Teens magazine had a special Classifieds section, where you can advertise to sell your crap there. I'm not sure if they still have it or if they still have the magazine, in the first place. hur hur hur.

in any case, i used to be an avid reader of the Sweet Valley series back then and accumulated so many books that I had to sell some of them off. being the business-savvy teenager i was then, i placed an advertisement. however, i was stupid enough to include my phone number.

now Sweet Valley books were about these two twin teenage girls and how they basically led their lives, etc. and the target audience was obviously for girls.

Of course, NONE of the callers were female. and i actually received a phone call from a guy who
asked, "What colour underwear are you wearing? Would you like to sell them to me?"

hur hur.

oh the sick perverts.

i was undeniably traumatized but well, at least it taught me a lesson. hur hur hur.

As I grew older, my role changed and I was the pranker instead of the prankee. When we were studying for our exams, Ricky and I would call up guys we liked and also random strangers from the phone book, looking for the elusive Ah Chong and the following conversation would ensue:

Ricky: HELLO? AH CHONG AH??!!!
Stranger: Sorry? You've got the wrong number.
Ricky: AIYAH!!! AH CHONG AH! WHERE ARE YOU!!!!!
Stranger: You've got the wrong number!!!
Ricky: AH CHONG AH! AH CHONG!!!!!

and it would continue until the person hangs up or we couldn't contain our laughter anymore.

hur hur hur.

ahhhhh. those were the days.

anyways, Ricky told me that he had missed me. awww. so sweet, huh!

unfortunately, he didn't miss me enough to admit to me whether he's still a virgin.

hur hur.
