After what seemed like 1 million + tries...

I GOT THROUGH to Nestle Crunch.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! This is well worth it. Believe me.

CAN'T. STOP. LAUGHING.

ETA: I'm about to post a spoiler in the comments, so don't read the comments if you want to call the hotline yourself and be surprised. People who don't have access to toll-free numbers in the U.S. need to live vicariously through me, I guess.

Also, if you have no idea what I'm talking about, look back an entry or two on my journal. I posted about this this morning.

What happened? :o

Ok...I AM POSTING A SPOILER! (But only because you're in England and can't call.)

So..you call the Nestle hotline. They tell you to press 1 for English or 2 for Spanish. You don't do anything but wait.

A few seconds letter, they give you the option for Pig Latin. (I didn't try that option, but I assume if you press the corresponding number, they say something to you in Pig Latin.) I just waited.

Then you are taken to their "funner menu." You press 1 for knock-knock jokes, etc. It goes all the way up to option 7. Option 7 is "a definition of cooties." That was the funniest one. When you press 7, the voice gives you this hilarious definition of cooties. Once you've listened to an option, you can go back through the menu and listen to the other options.

The thing is, the menu is also voice-activated. I kept snorting with laughter and it kept telling me, "Sorry, I do not recognize that option." It made it that much funnier.

That is awesome. I wonder if the UK hot-line has the same thing... *ponders*

This is making me giddy just readin this!!! Haha. I'm dying to know!! I'll try again a few more times. :) Did you just hang up and keep re-dialing to finally get through?

I just hit re-dial immediately after I hung up from a busy signal and it started ringing!

It's worth it, I promise.

LOL, I finally got through!! That was cooler than I thought it would be! I kept laughing throughout the menu & it kept telling me "I'm sorry, but I couldn't understand your option" or something like that. It was so hard to keep quiet long enough to hear it all. lol.

I'm going to try again tonight so Lance can hear it. He was still here at home when I was trying to get through first thing this morning.
