wickedfleame: "Hello?"
other person: [pause] Hello?"
(This is one of my two pet peeves: people who call me and answer my "hello" with a "hello" of their own. My other pet peeve is the term "pet peeve.")
me: "HellOOOHHH?!?!?!?"
other person: Yes, who's speaking? Hello? Who's speaking?
me: Nebuchadnezzar.
*click* (She hung up on me! Can you imagine?)
OK, make that three pet peeves. I also hate when people call me, don't identify themselves, and ask me to identify myself. Fuck that -- if you don't know who you're calling, chances are I don't want to talk to your dim ass.
