What’s the weirdest phone call you have ever received?

Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.

Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?

I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.

Where's the Civil War everyone on the left said would happen?

Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.

Yes sir it is.

Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.

Why do some people never get to on a date even though they wanted to? Are they just too ugly and weird for everybody?

{RING} {RING}

I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.

I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.

Are there any more 'nun' jokes?

Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

HELLO

After a few moments he returns.

Do you agree that firearms are the most common weapon used in homicides of spouses, intimate partners, children or relatives? Should this data influence gun control policies?

Sure no problem officer.

ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?

No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.

Why do people keep complaining about how some people copy and paste the question before answering it? To me, it's very disturbing and makes me want to block and mute them as annoying whiners.

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
