On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I don't think I own a plantronics product and I'm pretty sure I haven't been making phantom customer complaint calls in my sleep.

I bet someone just mistyped the real customer's email.

Do you live in Futurama ? Otherwise "Plantronics" sounds like something unlikely you would have.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Plantronics are a popular brand of headsets. I've had them at more than one job.

So, Google Voice has some 202 numbers available. Why are they giving me a choice?!?!? I am paralyzed with indecision.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I am paralyzed with indecision.

I looked up numbers in my town, and then picked the first one that sounded good when I said it out loud. It's important.

All is well that ends in pizza.

How tied up in the Apple infrastructure are you? Apple will have free email later this fall.

I used to *have* free email from Apple.

I haven't picked one yet. PARALYZED with indecision. I'm thinking about 0776 as the suffix. They all have zeros, so no spelling cool words. I wanted maybe 8789 (VRTX) or 7956 (SWLO), but for naught.

Our wings are not tired.

I picked my number based on baseball. This should surprise no one. My home number ends with "Juan Marichal Jackie Robinson."
