      XPost: rec.puzzles, alt.usage.english       From: HenHanna@devnull.tb              in a movie, a guy is on the phone, and the person (on the other end)       (often a woman) hangs up               I've always felt that this happens 100+ times more        often in movies than in real life...              THEN the guy goes ...               --------- Hello? Hello? Susan? Are you there?        ----------------- Did you just hang up on me?               I've always felt that this happens 1000+ times more        often in movies than in real life....                     in Older movies, the guy does that [momentary Hang-up] thing.        ---------- In older times, this didn't hang up?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
