When somebody calls you when you're about to start something, in the middle of something, or just want to be
left alone. The caller just won't let you go and just keeps on talking and talking and talking and talking and talking. The caller might talk about subjects that you don't know anything about and/or have absolutely no interest in, and just when it seems
like he or she is about to let you
go, he or she jumps on to a whole new subject. You can be stuck in this situation for hours.
phone rings
VICTIM:
Hello?
PHONECUFFER: Hey, there's this
one really
weird question on the physics homework
VICTIM: Okay, let's see…
10 minutes later
PHONECUFFER: Yeah, thanks man.
VICTIM: No problem.
PHONECUFFER: By the way, did you hear about that idiot?
VICTIM: Oh yeah!
16 minutes later
PHONECUFFER: But then I realized that 5 Hour Energy is better than Vault.
VICTIM: That's cool, but I've got this paper that's due in
72 hours.
PHONECUFFER: I see.
27 minutes later
PHONECUFFER: And so I dug it up on
YouTube last night and I thought it was mediocre.
VICTIM: Yeah…
PHONECUFFER: I mean people think he's an idiot…
VICTIM: Un-huh…
PHONECUFFER: But really he can be hilarious, like when…
VICTIM: (thinks "I have a paper to work on and he's talking about the crappiest move that was ever made.")
38 minutes later
PHONECUFFER: But then I realized that if you stand eight
feet away, you get the most accuracy.
VICTIM: That's cool, but I really need to work on that paper.
22 minutes later
PHONECUFFER: So he just stared off into space and was
like "Whoa!".
VICTIM: (monotone) That's
weird. (thinks "I've told him about the paper six times and he's still phonecuffing me!")
