Mine refuses to even answer the phone. He said that way he doesn't get the message wrong. And if I want to know what they wanted I should of answered the phone. Did I mention he hates the phone

There was a funny scenario on Seinfeld where Elaine gets mad at her boyfriend for not using exclamation points in the message he leaves that her friend had a baby.
We have caller ID, so he doesn't bother answering the phone if it's not for him (and it's rarely for him). All my friends know to just leave me a message.
That is funny.... but by the way, if people don't get it, it may be because we have forum members who are youngsters. Remember that many kids are on this forum too and sometimes it's better to leave the ambiguity in place for their protection.

Sounds a lot like my house, thank God for caller ID
