Accept it, Allyson! I'll totally cover the charges.
I probably shouldn't have watched that "Women who love bad men" episode of "Secret Lives of Women." But it could be Eric Menendez.
Zoe: Preacher, don't the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing? Book: Quite specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps.

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

I would pay the $5 or so just to end the suspense. Otherwise I'd always wonder.

I am not in jail, but is sure feels like I am...

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Yeah, it's just ..."a collect call from ------, LA County Jail."
And then I hang up.
But it's been happening for TWO DAYS.

Here at work they think I have a crazed fan.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Is there a pause there (after the 'from')? Maybe the caller was supposed to state his name but didn't.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I've bookmarked the NYC list. I'll be downtown in a week and a half! Can't wait!
I hate those prison calls. I'm sure some weird, lonely people accept the prison calls. Or people who have relatives in jail, of course. Even if you're expecting the calls, they're a scam. The phone companies contract with the prisons and the rates are EXPENSIVE as hell.

Allyson, you have to accept! Suspense!

Or, you know, don't.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Is it to your cell phone or what, Allyson? Bizarre. And it does sound like maybe the person isn't giving his name on purpose.

I'd say don't accept. Perhaps the caller might want something from you after he gets out.
