What’s the weirdest phone call you have ever received?

After a few moments he returns.

Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?

{RING} {RING}

‘Peacekeeper’ under investigation for role in Salt Lake City protest shooting - The Salt Lake Tribune

I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.

I see ugly guys dating gorgeous, "hot" women all the time. I, too, am not very attractive but I'm not doing well with the ladies. What's their secret?

No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.

Sure no problem officer.

ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?

Why do so many FtM people act like MtF people don't exist and what the hell am I supposed to do as an MtF person?

Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.

Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.

Is it legal for an employer to ask why you are taking time off from work?

I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.

Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?

HELLO

I'm looking for an answer from people who consider themselves "Gender Critical", or transphobic, or TERFs, and my question is this - Why would you refuse to use the pronouns someone wants? What does it cost you? Where's the harm?

Yes sir it is.

Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
