seriously, i'm sick of calling up people and getting a recorded version of some lame ass song that lasts for 2 minutes. for fucks sake, if you don't want to say something pertinent like 'hey, this is so-and-so, please leave a message' then don't leave anything at all. i'd rather hear some digitized voice repeat the number i just called back to me then sit through half of a 50 cent song. (25 cents? nevermind...) anyways, if you have music on your voicemail then delete it. it sucks super cock.

Make me.

what song is so important that you would want to waste 2 minutes of someone's life everytime you decide to not answer your phone?

Seeing as no one but telemarketers, people I don't like and work call me, it's like a pre-punishment.

say somethin creative or shut up and hang up

1) I never leave voice messages. 2) I don't have an answer message. In short, I don't do voice messages. Thanks.

My mother in law starts conversations.

"Oohh, you're out. Well, I was just thinking about coming to visit....what will you be doing in July?....and you know about so and so dying, yeah, shame, only seventy eight, that's no age, is it?...had a lot of rain here...tomatoes are looking good......"

Then I ring back and have to hear it all again as my husband is an expert at avoiding his mother.

I just don't have a phone

My buddy Chris usually has something like "Neckcutta" recorded on his phone... Usually just one word... He did once have a full sentence recorded on his voicemail but he figured that one word would be better....

I smashed my phone off the wall the other day because it wouldn't charge... I also smashed the charger off the wall because it kept blinking a red light at me... My voicemail message is just me wittering about how I'm unable to take your call etc etc...

Think that pisses me off the most about the songs people record on voicemail is that usually, the songs aren't even good anyway... I have to sit through 2 minutes of some crap song like "Bitch killa bitch killa!"

i dont leave messages, if they don't answer or the phones off i just hang up. im not wasting my money listening to their shitty ass voice mail.

But what if its someone giving you a dirty phonecall? Now you have to give me your number so I can leave you voicemail!

The worst ones are the ones where people record their own voice going 'hello, hello? can you hear me?' haha, I'm not here really! leave a message!'

No - fuck off you moron.

speaking of dirty phone calls, some dick left a message on my voicemail of them eating..just chewing away...

i tried to phone back, the bastard hung up on me.

i still have the number..might phone the next time i get bored

I usually don't make my voicemail longer than 30 seconds, right now I have it set to the spongebob square pants theme. Honestly, if your voicemail is over 30 seconds why the hell is anyone going to listen to it more than once, not only is it a waste of time but now you have people hanging up before they actually get a chance to leave a message because they hate your stupid overly long voicemail.

Mine says the following:

"This is Meaghan. I'm either at work, on the phone, or I just don't want to talk to you. Leave a message and maybe I'll get back to you."

IT DOES. FOR REAL. CALL IT.

I hate cellphones with answering machines on em...that's kinda killing the point of having a cell..

Not really. For instance, I don't have a landline telephone. It's a waste of money to pay $29.99 for basic service, no long distance... when I pay $39.99 for unlimited long distance and 3,000 daytime minutes... free nights and weekends. Etc.

So if I'm at work, and someone needs to get a hold of me, they can leave me a voicemail. I'll get back to them when I can. And since I'm on call for work 24/7, it also comes in handy. I have it set to make an irritatingly loud beeping noise when a voicemail comes in. Wakes me out of just about any substance-induced stupor.

ok, i agree, but it still pisses me off.

You know what you need? A good scrumpin'.

You are so fucking (pun intended I guess) right it's not even funny. Other than that, I'm a nice person.
