Dear Winifred; Feb. 26

Advice (NOT good!) column

Warning; advice given is NOT politically correct!

 

     "Dear Winifred, I had a very traumatic experience the other day; I answered a phone call, and the person on the other end asked me to take a survey; and as I didn't want to appear rude, I agreed.  The very first question she asked was, "What radio station do you listen to?"  I answered truthfully that I don't listen to the radio.  She must have thought I was being sarcastic, since after a pause, her reply was 'Then you must be 'expletive' (rhymes with trucking,) stupid!" and hung up.  I feel bad that she thought I was being sarcastic, as that's not me.  Signed Definitely Not Being Sarcastic." 

 

     "Dear Definitely Not Being Sarcastic, first of all, rhymes with 'trucking'?  I don't know what you mean.  Moving beyond that, you showed much greater restraint than I would have.  As soon as she let me know it was for a survey, my answer would have very much been true sarcasm.  Something along the lines of "Oh, this is a survey huh?  Why don't you (rhymes with 'beat') me!" and slammed down the receiver, thereby giving her no opportunity to hang up on your a*s.  These telemarketers; f**k 'em!  Winifred."
