while making a call on behalf of two girls from a local university, i got a busy signal. when i told them of said signal and that i would have to try calling back, they looked at me like i was crazy. after an awkward moment, one of them asked for an explanation, so i told them that a busy…
i'm wondering if this is north korea's plan- they're waiting for the rest of us to lose electricity and then, while we're all depressed about not being able to play x-box live, stomping the shit out of us with ww2-era weaponry.
