This being the fourth 'ring ring' or mine on the forums, I took the trouble of going one step furthur...

*After a friggin long time getting through the automated help service, I managed to get through to a human voice*

'Hello, THQ customer service centre. Kyle speaking.'

'Hi, I have a problem' I ask.

'What seems to be the problem?' Kyle replies,

'I have got teethache'

'Toothache sir? We are a videogaming company. Not a dentist surgery'

'Yea, bub itss your gamess faulb' I try to pretend I cannot speak properly now.

'Ok, let me take this down. What exactly happened'

'Waitt on sec.....*I shout while I pretend to thump my face*... ok, thats a bit better'

*I pause and whistle down the phone*

'Sir?'

'Sorry, I havent been able to whistle for hours...
*start to whistle again*
...Anyway, I was walking down the street, and I picked up a road sign. Then I saw this geezer with a stick. I thought he was asking me to 'just bring it'. Remembering what your game taught me, I ran up to him with my roadsign and bashed him over the head'

'Holy crap, why did you do that?'

'Cos your game taught me to'

'Hang on, sir, would you mind if I recorded this phonecall'

*I was on a secure line through my computer, so I said*

'Yeah, but if some guy phones up saying I attacked him, remember he told me to 'just bring it...'

'Continue please'

'There this guy was on the ground, and while I was looking for others who wanted to 'just bring it' I didn't see him come to his feet! He looked a bit narked off and hit me full pelt around the face which created this teethache. Your fault!'

'Right... well is this actually going anywhere sir, I mean, I can only really deal with problems directly related to the games we publish and release'

'Oi, you are the ones that taught me this'

'Can I ask how old you are sir?'

'Let me ask my mum'

'erm....'

'Seventy years old'

'Excuse me?'

'Are you challenging me? Did you say just bring it?'

'Excuse me? Sorry, I cannot actually help you wit...'

'..I don't give a greased assed monkeys if you think you are Elvis or not, I will get in that ring with you. *turns phone volume up* COS IF YOU SMELL WHAT TH..'

*line goes dead*

'..To go to a customer service desk please key in 172 on your keypad now'

*Sadly, I wanted to annoy him a bit more, but sadly I could never get put through to Kyle again*

Just a bit of fun.

*NO HUMANS WERE HURT DURING THE MAKING OF THIS RING RING*

I should post my Macbeth coursework. The teachers said it was hillarious; not sure if that's good or bad though.
