Does wank + telemarketing = phone sex?
Oh, customers_suck, you bastion of wank.

[info]shadowsync posts a potentially wanky list of things to do when a telemarketer calls (how to get them to stop calling you the polite way, but phrased badly).

Of course, it's customers_suck. Are they going to let them live it down?

Not if they can help it!

Be sure to look out for [info]tigerwolf's comment about his newly-purchased airhorn (second page), and [info]susano_otter's comment about how telemarketing is equivalent to selling yourself (second linked thread, last comment).

And, of course, there's a condensed version of the stupid on stupid_free.

Telemarketing: only the strong survive.

ETA: Fixed to include link to original post.

I'm sorry, but I fail to see why I should have to be supersensitive to everyone for the sake of being so. This is a wank community, but even I haven't called anyone names.

Why would we ban you? We're too unique to resort to something so prosaic. Snowflakes like us do much more interesting things like getting chocolate in each others' peanut butter...and vice versa. Seriously.

Hey, are you new around here?

I only ask because you seem to be totally missing the point of the wank communities. They're not here for your to wank in, they're here for us to make fun of the people doing the wanking, like you.

The "wank" part of the name is not an invitation, but I can see how you might be confused, especially since you're so wound up.

Bit of a difference.

However, it's not like there hasn't been a history of wanking inside these wank communities anyway.

It's not like there hasn't just been a post about it.

Disagreeing is fine. You've kind of moved beyond disagreement into hysterical shrilling, but hey, telemarketers sure do get people wound up.

Certainly there's been a history of wanking inside these wank communities. What, you think it's an invitation to do so? You see a drunkard pissing on the sidewalk and think to yourself, 'Hey, that's a fucking history' and drop your pants in hopes of someday being enshrined in the Annals of Pavement Pissers?

Look, we're very glad you care so much about freedom of speech and all that rot. Now go answer that phone, drama whore. There's a telemarketer wanting to exercise his rights on your ear. Don't fuck it up.

Let me help you out: the problem here is not that anyone cares what you're enraged about. The problem is that you seem to think this is place to share your very special thoughts, you unique and delicate snowflake, you.

No one cares. No one. You've already stated your piece in stupid_free and your own LJ. Why did you think you needed to come bring the wank right here to us? I admit, it *is* thoughtful of you, since now we don't even need to click on any links to see someone wanking so hard they're about to break it off, but, like I said above, this isn't the place to wank or to rant.

As well, since you're having trouble with the rules, let me offer you a link to this post (still on the front page of otf_wank, if you scroll down. I realize that in your blinding rage it's probably hard to use the scroll button, though, so I thought I'd help you out):

http://www.journalfen.net/community/otf_wank/521507.html

I'll even bold the pertinent part:

As well, only you can stop unfunny comments. We're not here for your rage either. Find the humour in the situation, not the anger. If you can't keep it in, you have your own journal. Use it.</i>

Hope that helps! :-)

The OP's post that really annoyed people.

Secondly, I don't have the opportunity to spend all my time reading every post in this community, and I have been mostly just read the groups on my friend's list, since I tend to spend more time on LJ.
