how to potentially kill yourself from embarrassment, no seriously, like ACTUALLY DIE

call your gentleman friend (who sends you VEC) and leave a voicemail, whilst wearing a fancypants headset for your phone. finish said voicemail, and hang up phone. turn on the radio, since you're in the car, find a good station, and proceed to sing along at the top of your lungs, including some very questionable harmonies and backup vocals. wonder, 3 minutes later, what that beeping noise in your ear is. look at your phone and discover, to your horror, that the voicemail has been recording THIS WHOLE TIME. LIKE WHILE YOU WERE SHRIEKING ALONG TO THE RADIO. WITH AN EARPIECE MICROPHONE DEALY RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR MOUTH.

should this situation happen to you? hypothetically, i mean? i suggest texting said person in a panic and laughingly say you forgot to hang up at the end of the message and to disregard the 3 minutes of dead air, and hope to jeebus that he does. then discreetly grill him later to find out if he deleted the message before posting the story on your blog.

  1. Hahahaha that's awesome. If he's the least bit cool, he will love those last three minutes anyway.

  3. I laughed LITERALLY OUT LOUD. Then I made Paul listen to the whole story, and he cringe-laughed too. OH MY GOD. Are you speaking to us FROM BEYOND THE GRAVE? Do you think he listened to it??

  6. Your life is a sitcom. Have you ever thought about writing a pilot season?!

  7. Oh no! That reminds me of a time when I was about 13. I was home alone and cranked the radio up really loud and was dancing around singing with an invisible microphone, when I heard a loud banging knock on the window glass of our side door. I looked up to see our neighbor standing there with a big grin on his face. I died right there. On the spot.

  8. That...was...AWESOME! Yes, incredibly embarassing, however, if he's the catch I think he might be, well, he'll find it adorable and endearing.

  9. He'll think it's hot. My wife never hangs up either. Is that an estrogen thing or something not to hang up the phone? I'm the one that hangs on to hear what she says.

    So what was the song? If it was lik "Cherry Pie" by Warrant, that's hot, but if it was like Britney Spears or something ... not so hot.

    It was 7 years ago.

    I have yet to live it down.
