The Goonfather loves receiving calls from telemarketers. They’re worth a good 15 minutes of entertainment to him, at the very least.
You’ve read how the Goonfather foiled two of them. Now, here’s a different case.
This telemarketer was quite privileged not to have received the fabled Goonfather Treatment… but that was because he was entertaining enough on his own. He managed to make the Goonfather quite speechless, instead!
Telemarketer: Good afternoon, sir.
The Goonfather: Yo!
Telemarketer: I am calling on behalf of Standard Chartered. Is it convenient to talk to you at the moment?
The Goonfather: Wassup?
Telemarketer: Sir, I would like to inform you that you are entitled to a loan of four times your monthly income. How does that sound?
The Goonfather: Do I have to pay back?
Telemarketer: Haha… of course!
The Goonfather: Not interested…
Telemarketer: Sir, the loan has an incredible low interest of 0.XXX% per month.
The Goonfather: Hmm… and that is how many % per annum?
Telemarketer: About 3.XX%.
The Goonfather: Oh. Nah… I don’t need the money.
Telemarketer: Sir, why not you give it a try?
The Goonfather: No, I don’t need the money.
Telemarketer: You can use it to pay your outstanding credit card bills.
The Goonfather: My credit card bill has a balance of $0. I don’t need the money.
Telemarketer: Just give it a try, you may like it.
The Goonfather: Er… if you give me the money without needing me to pay it back, I would love it. But why would I want to take the money and pay interest when I don’t even need the money?
Telemarketer: Sir, just give it a try.
The Goonfather: No, I am fine. I am not in need of money.
Telemarketer: Give it a try. If you don’t like it, you can return the money within seven days.
The Goonfather: Er… you selling me loan or camera??
To borrow a pet phrase of Xiaxue‘s… KUA KUA KUA!
Sorry I had to do that, but this is really a kua kua kua moment, is it not?
The Goonfather asks, “Do people borrow money from banks to use as a fashion accessory nowadays? Like, they put a thick chunk of notes in their wallets to look good? And if they don’t like it, they can return to the bank at no cost?”
Ladies, if you’re out on a first date and your date’s wallet looks exceptionally fat, you might want to keep the awe in check for a bit.
I like how he uses the phrase “give it a try”. Must be his favorite phrase or something.
Like I really need to “try” the money… “this money doesn’t spend well, I prefer that other brand of money instead”.
In addition to KUA KUA KUA, must make the sign of 3 fingers down the side of the head, to simulate 3 beads of perspiration to go along with incredulous look…
kua kua kua — So that’s what’s its called. Hehehe.
oh, so there’s a phrase for this => -_-”

Relax: lol, lots of FAILs in life to make us laugh.
heartless: Hahaha… well, maybe one day, if I post enough of Goonfather stories, he will actually stop getting calls altogether!
JayWalk: Kua kua kua!!

good one!! i been geting such calls lately, i will reproduce this.. ahahaa
Gotta love the GF. There’s a whole book waiting to be written. And I guess that money can be an accessory: use it to buy some Bling and then return the Bling and the money inside 7 days
Hahaha!
And yesterday GF had another victim. A Standard Charter telemarketer. But its another story which Sheylara would probably tell another time.
Next time I received a call from telemarketer, I pass the call to GF.
jiahui: Heh, unfortunately for the banks, they don’t know the Goonfather’s real name, lol.
aig: :)
dxtehsecks: Hahaha. That’s damn funny!
niall: lol.
Ashtar83: Heh. Give my money a try!
amd: Well, do your telemarketers keep pestering you to give their money a try? :P
Jesta: If you used money to buy bling, how would you still have money left to return in 7 days??
Anlooo: Haha…. he’s going to be really busy with phone calls if you pass all your calls to him. :P
at least he will b ‘busy’ entertaining himself:P
they are not my telemarketers but they do keep pestering me to give their money a try and it’s very frustrating :P
heartless: Yeah, nowadays ah… you see his face light up when telemarketers call him. It’s crazy, I tell you.
amd: Heheh, okay next time try to annoy them back for revenge. :P
