Text from Wrong Number

[satyajitmenon]

From another forum I'm a member of.

So, I'm changing the brake fluid on BGrissom's SV650S when I suddenly get a text message from a number I don't recognize.

Them: Test a go ready in one hour

Me:

A little confused, I erase and continue on with my day. One hour later...

Them: Begin testing. Please report results.

Me: Sectors 1, 3, and 4 report failure.

Them: We are not testing 1,3, and 4. Those are Banners and do not require testing. Please submit appropriate HIM form recording your finding.

Me: In the field and cannot access form. Please submit form for me.

Them: Cannot submit form on your behalf. Call Thomas.

Me: They won't back out. I'm restarting server now.

Them: Don't do anything. Call Thomas.

Me: Give me a minute, I almost got it.

Them: What is your location?

Me: Server is hung in post, reseating MotherBoard, memory, processor, and disc drives now.

Them: What??? DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING! We are sending someone to your location. Please call Thomas immediately.

Me: I'm a little busy, reloading OS.

I then receive a phone call from 317-513-5186.

Them: Who is this? (In a paniced tone)

Me: It's me.

Them: Who?

Me: Jared

Them: Are you on IVY Tech's system administration team?

Me: Uh, no I think you might have the wrong number.

Them: Click

Minutes later I get another text from the original number. 317-506-5099

Them: So, looks like we are all clear.

Me: Nothing is clear on my end.

Them: Why are you texting me? I think you have the wrong number.

Me: You had better call Thomas to confirm.

or the more likely explanation - the whole thing is just made up in a lame attempt to troll for attention on the internet.

is that why you usually have ms paints rather than photos?

 

[skyking]

I had one, not so funny but it made me LOL. I get this wrong text, after I tell them they ask, "what do I do?"
I was working for a plumbing contractor at the time, so I randomly answered "plumber"
It was during the presidential campaign, they answered right back "is your name Joe?"

Zing!

The wife texted the wrong number last night - actually it was because she was sending a message to her aunt, who recently changed her cell phone number. She got an angry response followed by an angry phone call from some asshole who couldn't connect the dots and realize that if you just got a new phone with a new number, maybe that used to be someone else's number.

My art is beyond reproach. Do not question the gifts bestowed upon you by Jeeebus.

I got one once, I didn't recognize the number. They just asked, "he gon?" I replied, "yep". They answered, "ru naked?" I replied, "yep", I had just gotten out of the shower. They replied, "BRT!" Someone probably got an interesting surprise.
