JUST ASKING
I've read numerous accounts of the mayhem caused by the inclusion of a real phone number instead of a 555 number in the Jim Carrey movie Bruce Almighty.
A simple question: what kind of stranger-stalking, pentagram-engraving, hoarse-breathing, pet-strangulating, telephone line-severing, crepe-soled shoe-wearing, body hair-shaving, computer-hacking, pantie-fondling, refuse-sniffing, mail-steaming freak writes that number down and calls it!?!?!
I have a few ideas. I'm just waiting to see what the reward is.
Nobody rants like you.
Do it again, do it again!
Oh, and I agree--how stupid or how much of an asshole do you have to be to call that number? Please, people.
The shit part is that the studio will probably get sued for it by a few hundred people even though the problem isn't the movie, it's the shit-for-brains that decided to call the number.

C'mon. You know everyone who can remember the number's gonna call it JUST BECAUSE it's NOT a 555-xxxx number.
