    Message machine!

    Kind of a run off of the Answering Machine thread... but what is your message on your answering machine?

    On my cell phone it's "Hey... what's up?... Oh that's cool. Well sorry I coulden't answer the phone right now, but leave a message and I'll call you back!"

    Haha I love tricking people so they think it's acctually me they're talking to!

    So what's yours?

    LOL so you're one of those people...just kidding. I have to call people all the time at work to let them know that their dogs are ready to be picked up and those messages always get me. Our answering machine is boring, I think it just says "You've reached the *last name* please leave a message and we'll call you back."

    Mine is "Yo yo yo, you got E-money. Holla back youngin'."

    It's pretty dumb. D: But, what makes up for it, is that Super Mario Bros. is my ringback tone!

    My husband has recorded almost the same thing on our machine and I hate it for the same reason. BORING. The only difference is that he says "you have reached" *gives number* instead of name. He said that way they will know right away if they have mis-dialed without giving out our name.

    Mine says *Hi, you've reached Gary and Annette, please leave a message* Then I hope nobody leaves one.

    Interesting what people have! Our home phone is "This is 720...(number) please leave a message. Thanks." Pretty boring, and standard but oh well.

    My cell phone starts with Marta barking, then I say "That was Marta, but this is Jill's phone, so please leave a message, thanks." I guess that's lame too but I don't ever have to call myself at least!

    Mine is BORING!

    "Hi, this is Sandra, I can't come to the phone right now, please leave a message and your telepone number, please REPEAT your telephone number, and I will get back to you."

    I hate when people mumble through their phone number as if I KNOW it!

    There's a CEO type I have called a couple of times from work, and his cell says: "You've almost reached (name). Please leave a message etc etc etc"

    I liked the first part - particularly since he is kinda highly placed and I don't expect that humour.

    Another one: "This is (name). I DO want to talk to you, so leave your etc etc"

    The latter one especially is delivered in a gravelly serious business voice.

    Mine? "Hello. This is (number)." I can't recall the rest. I'll change it soon. LOL

    I own a business, so the answering machine message is very professional. I never set up the voice mail on my cell phone, so I don't have one. My kids are always recording something silly on theirs, though.

    Mine is "Hello?! Oh hey! What's up? *pauses* You've reached *name* but apparently I didn't answer so please leave you're name and number and I'll get back to you as soon as possible, Thanks!"

    I also like to trick people into thinking that it's actually me talking.

    Hi, You've reached Briana's cell phone. She's not here right now, so leave a message.

    I should change it to Hi you've reached Briana the pirate. She's off venturing the seven seas with Captain Jack. Naw, she's just watching Pirates of the Caribbean for the Umpteenth time. Leave a message.

    I don't have one on my cell because no one ever calls me.
