Musers Call Directory Assistance

I believe this bit was from Summer 2008.  I am always surprised by how accurately it reflects actual automated telephone systems.

Anytime I hear some dumbass automated voice respond to my request by saying  “Hmmmm.. I didn’t get that”, I think of this bit.  And then I mash the keypad hitting zero over and over, screaming “agent”, “associate”, and “carbon-based life form!”.

“Are you calling from the phone that you are using??”

I just spent 25 minutes on an automated system. This bit is like a little victory for all of us, it’s really spot-on.
