It just lets the caller know that whoever passed on this number is not interested.Parents of kids who wanted to scare them silly or friends who want to pull a scary prank on their friends would call up Wrinkles the Clown’s phone number.
This one is a bit more serious and will tell the caller: “Oh hello there. 646 926-6614: The Mary Sue Rejection Hotline.Who could be mad at being rejected like that? 719-26-OATES: The Callin’ Oates hotline, which lets you listen to a Hall & Oates song.1-61: A message from Stranger Things’ Murray Bauman.This one also works if you have kids who are easily tricked. 1-95: A recorded message from Santa Claus.1-88: A secret, Easter egg number for finishing a video game.But these rejection hotlines can still be a lot of fun for prank calls, so why not revisit those halcyon days? Just a thought. Prank-calling is a lost art, one that kinda went away with the ‘90s and “wazzup!”. These handy digits can also be good for fun, boozy events like bachelorette parties. Just make sure you're OK with burning that bridge because there's no recovering once you give someone a rejection hotline. But if they’re creeping you out in public, they’re violating your boundaries, and you’re allowed to get rid of them. It’s not exactly nice to give someone a fake number or send them away to get rejected by an automated message, sure.
It also might give you a bit of a laugh on the way. A rejection hotline is a number someone can call that will, either politely, impolitely, or with a bit of humor depending on what you’re going for, let someone down easily (or not so). While fake numbers or passing on a friend’s digits can help, there is another way: a rejection hotline. Luckily, there are ways to get around that cringy, sometimes even a little dangerous, moment of trying to just tell someone a flat-out “NO”. You’re likely out of shape at saying no to people.
So imagine that, yes, someone wants your number, and yes, they’ve asked six times, and they're really wearing Cargo shorts indoors. Either way, bars are not the blissful socializing zones I fantasized about during those long winter months. (Yes I will, he’s so hot.) Maybe people are just as creepy as they’ve always been, but I have a lower tolerance for it now. I thought the isolation would give them chances to reflect on themselves, but it seems some of them spent the past 16 months watching Game of Thrones on repeat - and for that, I’ll never forgive Jon Snow. Here’s the bad part: Shutting ourselves inside for a year didn’t make the creeps less creepy. Rejection is awkward and hard but necessary - still, what if you could put that hard work in someone else’s hands? That means some of the interactions you have might be less-than-enjoyable, and you might find yourself wanting to reject the people you’re chatting with. But not every stranger out there is the one for you, and the events of the last two years have done very little to improve people’s dating game (see: Zoom dates). Since lockdown restrictions lifted, you may be busy hitting the bars, pools, and parties, and perhaps hitting it off with handsome strangers.
