I Byte Hard

(I’m sitting on the couch when a toll-free number calls. I’m pretty sure it’s a scammer.)

Me: *using a deeper voice than usual* “Speak.”

Scammer: “I am calling from technical support for your computer.”

Me: “We don’t have that. I ate it for breakfast.”

Scammer: “Do you have a laptop?”

Me: “No. I ate that for dinner.”

Scammer: “I’m sorry for bothering you.”

Me: “You were definitely bothering me.”

(The scammer hung up. I’m kind of impressed how well he took the implication of me eating my computers.)
