What’s the weirdest phone call you have ever received?
10.06.2025 12:15

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?
Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??
Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.
How far does good behavior take you in a prison?
I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.
Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
HELLO
Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.
Sure no problem officer.
If you could instantly cancel one social norm, what would it be?
I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.

ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?
After a few moments he returns.
No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?

Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.
Yes sir it is.
