A new poll conducted well past a reasonable hour shows that four out of five Americans do not want to be bothered on the phone and certainly don’t want to participate in our latest poll.
“Please take me off of your damn list,” said one of the few participants in our weekly ‘Hot Topics’ poll, where we cold-call people that have been working all day and beg them to answer our questions. “I don’t know how you got my number, and I don’t know why you’re calling me at 6:30 PM, but your entire industry is a dinosaur lumbering towards its demise. Why are you calling strangers and asking them how they’re voting?”
Despite the prickliness of that guy, we here at The Daily Skrape appreciate his, and a few others’, participation.
“I’m voting for Donald Trump, okay you idiot?” answered one eager poll participant. “How could that possibly matter? What are you going to do, publish one of the thousand polls that will predict a close race between now and Election Day, when a close race inevitably happens? Why don’t you go do something productive with your life?”
As of press time, ugh, I still have a lot of calls to make to get through this list.
Anybody that believes in the polls is dumber than a box of rocks!!!!!!
I LOVE taking poles, I’ve been to the North, but not the South, West, or East pole . . . YET
When my phone rings, a display tells me the source of the call. “Spam Risk” appears frequently. Even though I would enjoy taking these callers apart, my wife has convinced me to allow those calls to go to the answering machine.
Me a Matthew used to go down to the Long Branch an watch them Purdy wimin a swinging an thowin theys clothes all over tarnation! Then a bunch of them californy boys came in a dancin in a swilling BudLight, and commenced to do things with that there pole I ain’t never seen befor!! And I ain’t gonna go back ever agin.
