So I just received my first of what may be many 'tech support' phone calls where I am told that my Windows-based PC is infected with a virus.
usually i start by asking them "what are you wearing?"
and then proceed to "im pulling out my cock right now.. its really hard .. and throbbing"
and from there its wherever you want to go

Not sure I was actually ever convinced it was a real call from an actual tele-marketer but it was fun to consider the possibility.
Tom Mabe. He has a some pretty funny stuff he's supposedly pulled with telemarketers.
Here's that one:

Another good one is where a dude calls and tries to sell him a casket, he pretends to be suicidal after getting fired and having his wife and family leave him.

Told her I only use Ubuntu even though I never used it a day in my life and she hung up. 
I got the same call a few months ago. The guy was Indian, but he had pretty good English:
"Our scanners show your system is infected! Open Windows/System32/drivers. See those .sys files? Those are all Trojans!" I was in the middle of work, so I let the guy go on and on and on. I figure if I let him take my time while I'm working, that's time not spent duping some less informed person. Probably let him talk for 90m or so. I even lost the connection (my cordless died) and he called me back. |

LOL, wasn't there a story a few months back about some guy screwing with some dude on the phone doing that? |

The movie is fantastic, but also too the book: Wiseguy by Nicholas Pileggi, who tells Henry Hill's story. Henry tries to glorify his life, but you can see the toll it takes on him.
For CUTTER: This is also a great read: Donnie Brasco by Joe Pistone (Also a fantastic movie with Depp and Pacino). True story of how FBI agent Joe goes undercover and infiltrates the mob almost rising higher and higher as he builds his case. The lifestyle exacts a similar toll on him as Henry, even though he's working for the good guys.
Both of these I'm sure are available at your local library.
Oh I've seen the films but I'm not into that sort thing enough to warrant reading the books. As I already stated, I don't like gangsters. Never have, never will. I find nothing romantic or cool about them. If I had my way I'd be Judge Dredd summarily executing them for their crimes. Speaking of which I am stoked for the new Judge Dredd flick this fall. I AM...THE LAW!

Snow White was cast before Peter Dinklage won his Emmy for his awesome portrayal of Tyrion Lannister on Game of Thrones. I wonder if, given his popularity, they would have cast actual undersized people if they were casting it today.
Also, why rack up all that CG expense when you can just use real people? Is it really worth the cost to be able to put Nick Frost and Bob Hoskins on the cast list? Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron, and Chris Hemsworth not draw enough? |

| Hey, last day for the Humble Indie bundle! It's a great deal. I had everything already except Limbo and Amnesia, but it was worth it just for those two. And the soundtracks. And the Steam keys. And the Linux version... |

It's a shame, because I always think of Ray Liotta's characterization of Henry Hill whenever I see a post about Diablo 3:
"You can't log in to play your single player game? F&*k you, pay me!"
"Someone hacked your account and stole all your stuff? F&*k you, pay me!"
"Our servers took a crap and the lag spike caused your hardcore character to die? F&*k you, pay me!"

I've never understood the hero worship of mobsters, bikers, etc. they're all scumbags to me. The gubment needs to quit cutting deals with them and start treating them like the terrorists they are.
