a month ago, i receive a copy of GQ magazine in the mail. it is addressed to me by name, at my address. the cover features justin bieber. i think: "they're just sending it to me hoping i'll like it and subscribe, and, well, good luck with that"
then another copy showed up again, just now, and i'm rather confused: should i check my credit card statements for fraud or something? or is this just a superbly dumb waste of money trying to sell me on something i'll never, ever buy?

was juuust old enough to order 2600, download phrack, modify a radio shack tone dialer to be a red box and have it work precisely once before they digitized everything. i remember, my friend and i were looking at each other, like... shit? really? did that work? did that really just happen? then there was no conversation; we just left very quickly. we'd never pulled this shit off before and what if burly men from the phone company show up? obviously silly in retrospect, but 16 years old, you know...
then dave wright, aka not breathing, kind of my weird internet older brother for many years... he says: you might enjoy longmont potion castle. and, indeed, i did, and my aforementioned friend became almost obsessed with the guy. he texted me once, "i'm on a business trip to colorodo and i've made a pilgrimage to the corner of simms and oak"
that, in fact, we managed to dox him pretty thoroughly. i have a name, phone number, address. latter two probably years out of date... but, hey, we can prank call him now, and... uhhh... we just never had the stones. that, in fact, you could shove a knife up my anus and i would not tell you any of it. the man is a national treasure and i utterly refuse to be the one that ruins it.
but my friend and i, we actually got into a spat a few times -- longmont potion castle was, like, weird, surrealistic. calling someone at 3am repeatedly and then they scream at you, that's funny for a bit, but, like, alright man, i actually want to do nice prank calls? if that makes sense? or at least surreal instead of obnoxious
we also hung out with the Phone Losers of America for a bit. another level, there. they'd talk about stuff like "pick a day you're not busy, pick someone who sucks, walk through the phonebook and make an appointment with everyone, every plumber, electrician on that day. and show up with popcorn and perhaps a camera"
however, we would do this to each other on a small, nice scale

i mean chances are it wont work or backfire horribly, but just picturing some asshole trying to plead their case to handy man after handy man is hilarious. plus the pranked would have to be at home. not so easy to find out in advance and stealthily.

a quintuplet of jehovah's witnesses show up at your door in the pooring rain as you're tripping on acid.
you apologized so much for them coming out here on a night like this; immature friends and you're so sorry. inwardly, you're quite mad, but you also really do feel bad for the poor buggers in the pouring rain for nothing and
but then the ranking witness declares... NBD. however, do you know anyone else that needs... help
in your current condition, you find this to be so, incredibly unsettling. like: do you know anyone who is currently in a vulnerable state? it's suddenly clear as a bell; their whole business model
it's such a deeply unsettling, haunting moment. not the overall incident; but the italics on help. you're a bit shredded in the minutes after but soon enough you have it together enough again to call him up and yell at him, you asshole, you bastard
he laughs the whole time
