Anger vs. exasperation
May 24, 2023 12:58:13 #
A young BadFisherman once went to BadBoddy and asked, “BB, what is the difference between anger and exasperation?”
BadBobby replied, “It's mostly a matter of degree. Let me show you what I mean.”
With that, BB went to the telephone and dialed a number at random. PlumBob answered the phone and BB said, “Hello, is Melvin there?”
Plum answered, “There is no one living here named Melvin. Why don't you learn to look up numbers before you dial”.
“See,” said BB to the young, impressionable BF, “That man was not a bit happy with our call. He was probably very busy with something and we annoyed him. Now watch….”
BB dialed the number again. “Hello, is Melvin there?” he asked.
“Now look here!” came Plum's heated reply. “You just called this number and I told you that there is no Melvin here! You've got a lot of guts calling again!” The receiver slammed down hard.
BB once again turned to BF and said, “You see, that was anger. Now I'll show you what exasperation means.”
He dialed the same number, and when a violent voice roared, “Hello!”
BB calmly said,
“Hello, this is Melvin. Have there been any calls for me?”
BadBobby replied, “It's mostly a matter of degree. Let me show you what I mean.”

Haha! Guess Plum doesn't have caller ID.
BB always said that Plum was the perfect fall-guy.

Knowing BB as many of us remember, I can see him doing that.
The bite in the butt was, BB used a different cell phone each time.
