Baked to a crisp

Pretty funny anecdote on 1115.org, where the guy mostly writes about politics. In this entry he describes his night on a phone bank.

I knew it was trouble when the guy answered the phone with a big Budweiser-esque "Whaaaaazzzzzzuuuuupppp!!!"

Me: "Hello... this is Jason representing America Coming Together, and..."

Him: "America COMING Together? Are you shittin' me?" (followed by braying laughter at clever sort-of sexual pun)

Me: "Uh... Yeah. I'm calling to make sure you've received your ballot for the upcoming elections..."

Him: "Dude, call back later. I'm waaaaaaaaaaay too wasted to deal with this." (hangs up)

Strangely enough, this was the only guy on my sheet of voters listed as a Republican.
