This question is related to the news programs (which are supposed to be delivered in a serious and syphathetic way).
Is this whole "find out next" thing just annoying people?

When you occasionally have a really bad day, and you just need to take it out on someone, don't take it out on someone you know, take it out on someone you don't know.



I was sitting at my desk when I remembered a phone call I'd forgotten to make. I found the number and dialed it quickly. A man answered, saying "Hello." I politely said, "Hi, this is Chris. Could I speak with Robert Campbell please?"



Suddenly a manic voice yelled out in my ear "Get the right f*kin number!" and the phone was slammed down on me. I couldn't believe that anyone could be so rude. When I tracked down Robert's correct number to call him, I found that I had accidentally transposed the last two digits.

After hanging up with him, I decided to call the 'wrong' number again. When the same guy answered the phone, I yelled "You're a COCK!!" and hung up. I wrote his number down with the word 'COCK!' next to it, and put it in my desk drawer. Every couple of weeks, when I was paying bills or had a really bad day, I'd call him up and yell, "You're a COCK!!" It always cheered me up.



When Caller ID was introduced, I thought my therapeutic "COCK!" calling would have to stop. So, I called his number and said, "Hi, this is John Smith from BT. I'm calling to see if you're familiar with our Caller ID Program?"

He yelled "NO!" and slammed down the phone. I quickly called him back and said, "That's because you're a COCK!!"

One day I was at Barnstaple Shopping Centre, getting ready to pull into a parking spot. Some guy in a gunmetal grey Land Rover cut me off and pulled into the spot I had patiently waited for. I hit the horn and yelled that I'd been waiting for that spot, but the idiot ignored me. I noticed a "For Sale" sign in his back window, so I wrote down his number.



A couple of days later, right after calling the first COCK! (I had his number on speed dial,) I thought that I'd better call the Land Rover COCK!, too.

I said, "Is this the man with the gunmetal grey Land Rover for sale?" Yes, it is", he said. "Can you tell me where I can see it?" I asked. "Yes, I live at 129 Well Street, in Torrington. It's a terraced house, and the car's parked right out in front."



"What's your name?" I asked. "My name is Steve Hansen," he said. "When's a good time to catch you, Steve?" "I'm home most days as I'm currently unemployed." "Listen, Steve, can I tell you something?" "Yes?" "Steve, you're a COCK!!"

Then I hung up, and added his number to my speed dial, too. Now, when I had a problem, I had two a**holes to call.

Then one day I came up with an idea. I called COCK! #1.

"Hello?"
"You're a COCK!!" (But I didn't hang up.)
"Are you still there?" he asked.
"Yeah," I said.
"Stop calling me," he screamed.
"Make me," I said.
"Who are you?" he asked.
"My name is Steve Hansen."
"Yeah? Where do you live?"
"I live at 129 Well Street , Torrington, a terraced house, with my
gunmetal grey Land Rover parked out the front."
He said, "I'm coming over right now, Steve. And you had better
start saying your prayers."
I said, "Yeah, like I'm really scared, COCK!," and hung up.


Then I called COCK! #2. "Hello?" he said.
"Hello, COCK!," I said.
He yelled, "If I ever find out who you are..."
"You'll do what?" I said.
"I'll kick your a*se," he exclaimed.
I answered, "Well, COCK!, here's your chance. I'm coming over
right now."



Then I hung up and immediately called the police, saying that I lived at 129 Well Street, Torrington , and that I was on my way over there to kill my gay lover. Then I called Channel 5 News about the hoodie war going down in Well Street, Torrington .

I quickly got into my car and headed over to Well Street. I got there just in time to watch two dick-heads beating the cr*p out of each other in front of six police cars, an overhead police helicopter and a News crew.



Now I feel MUCH better. Take it from me, anger management really works...!!

So many dry cleaning companies and launderers throw away used metal hangers. It would cost too much for them to sort them out and re-use them. Often times, they don't even recycle them. They just throw the hangers into the trash. Instead of creating such waste, what do you suggest can be done with used metal hangers?

The reason why i asked because i have bumped into alot of them. it seems to me that i can not barely be safe with the questions i put on here without a jackass calling names or being disdurbing.
I don't care about what answer you give me as long as it is decent and not rude. it doesn't bother me if you agree or disagree. it's the way people give you the answers. I mean come on people? What are we doing to you for you to be just blantly ******* rude!?
This is insane i think yahoo answer should have a warning label on it so people would know before they even try to sign up for this.
LOL! Its just Crazy!

Have you ever had the impulse to smack your woman or cheat on her (even if you did not follow through)?

Do you think it is a result of thousands of years of men being able to do this and then within 1 or 2 generations being expected to change?

If men are not naturally violent, why have we always had wars? Why is boxing so popular? Why do we like to brag about being able to kick others guy's asses?

Just for the record, I am against violence and infidelity.

We are so worried about terrorists etc. Yet drug abuse is causing massive changes in our society. For eg. grandparents raising their grandchildren has risen by 30% in the past ten years. This also affects the retirement savings for these graying americans. It is also creating damaged children, taxes our health system etc.

Moreover, why do we hold educated people in such disdain?
I'm english, but attend university in America, where being educated is something highly celebrated. Whenever I go home though, I can't help but notice that, although subtle, there is a constant expression from the media and people in general that being in university is not something all that greatly positive. I'm from a working-class council-estate single-parent family, and I honestly don't know too many middle-class people, but the ones I do know do revere higher education a lot more. But why do the general masses not?
I hate to say that it's because ignorant idiots are what we can better relate to, but I'm running out of ideas here. I know this is't just me, I've spoken to other people, an American professor who lived in england for a short time included. He called it "towns vs. gowns."
I don't expect people to jump for joy that I'm still in school, but I don't rexpect blatant hostillity either.
Thoughts?

These people aren't paying taxes, why are they allowed to file lawsuits or defend themselves in court with public supplied legal assistance. I'm sick of it. Forget the border fence, lay a 500 yard wide strip of land mines along the border. And if anyone is dumb enough to wander in there and get blown apart, well that's just evolution in action.
I'm not against immigration, my wife is an immigrant from Europe, but she is immigrating legally, speaks english, and is assimilating into her new homeland. What is so bad about following the law? And if others want to come here for a better life, great. But don't demand to turn my country into the one they left.
