Today, I received a prank phone call that woke me up. I actually kept them on the line because they were the first person to call me in weeks. FML

Today, the highlight of my day was someone prank-calling me. FML
Today, I got a prank call. I now wish he'd call back so I can actually talk to someone. FML
Today, I received a drunken prank call from a girl I didn't know around 1am. I don't know what's sadder, that I carried out the conversation for 30 minutes, or that this was the first girl to call me in over a year. FML
Today, the only person I actually spoke with was a prank caller. I tried to have a conversation with him, but he hung up on me. FML
Today, the phone kept ringing so I picked it up and answered. When there was no response, it took a minute to realize that I was still in bed and talking to my hand. FML
Today, I was to have an important phone interview for a job. I got a call and everything went perfectly, and they said I was hired. Later, I found out that one of my "friends" had gotten one of his buddies to prank call me and make sure the line was engaged when the real interviewer called. FML
Today, I was having a beautiful lucid dream when a telemarketer called at 5AM, waking me up. I silenced my phone and went back to sleep, and was somehow able to resume my lucid dream. Then my phone vibrated me awake. It was the same telemarketer, this time calling at 7AM. FML
Today, I was having trouble sleeping, and I was almost asleep when I got a call from one of those spam places. They left a voicemail, which I made the mistake of listening to. The voice was so slowed down, it was very creepy, especially late at night. I don't think I'll be sleeping at all tonight. FML
Today, while lifeguarding, I received six prank phone calls on the official pool phone. When it rang again, I picked it up, told them to go fuck themselves, hung up, and then left the phone off the hook. A second later, my cellphone rang. It was my boss, telling me to get a sense of humor. FML
Today, I got a call from the girl I like. I got very excited so I quickly picked up. As it turns out, she was actually prank calling me, pretending to be a "liposuction telemarketer" but forgot to press *67. FML

You can always add yourself to local church group's calling lists. They'll talk to you all the time!

Some people are just really bad at making friends and extremely shy. They might also not want to call others unless they know they are friends because they don't want to 'annoy'. Even if it was a lack of effort on OP's part, the feeling of complete loneliness is one of the worst possible feelings.

Aw poor thing . Try telling your family to make an effort to call you sometime (:

I feel like they'd tell OP to try calling them sometime. As someone above said, it's a two way thing, if you call people, people'll most likely call you.

We don't know the context behind this. For all we know, he/she could have done a terrible thing to embarrass the entire family or something.

Don't do it! You'll get a call at 3am by some sexy sounding blonde woman named Leia from Hawaii attempting to have phone sex with you. Or at least that's what happened to me.

Join both the Democratic and Republican parties, and express interest in every political candidate running. Your phone will never stop ringing. Aw, I'll be your friend. Is your refrigerator running? Well, you'd better try to catch it! Do you have Prince Albert in a can? You better let him out before he suffocates!

Get in touch with the FTC and get on the National Do-Call Registry. Most people prefer their Do-Not-Call list, but they have the other one just for lonely losers.

This is true. It's how I got Perdix's number.

Telemarketers usually are not allowed to hang up on you... Time to mess with them!

You don't have telemarketers calling you? You should bottle that secret and sell it! I'm on the National DNC Registry and I still get at least four calls a week. It got to the point that I had to download an app on my cellphone and block long distance numbers who don't show a name on caller ID.
