Some asswipe clown started texting me from an anonymous number last night, claiming to be someone I know. I ran through a list of who it could be and they denied every one. Instead of then identifying themselves, they decided they were going to continue to try to talk to me when I have no clue who the eff they are.

This morning I told them to identify themselves or they'd be blocked, end of story.

They said, "Your so serious. You won't block me :)"

Seriously I'm ready to cut a motherfucker

Yo, but don't take the bait tho, just block/ignore whoever it is. Don't put up with high-school behavior.

Yeah, I'm trying to think if there's any way this is NOT high-school behavior or why I would want to talk to someone who's choosing to approach me like this, and frankly, I can't come up with any good reasons.

Maybe I'll sign the email address up for porn mailing lists.

Cut a motherfucker.

Thank you, Ben. I think I will.

at the end of the day I'm pretty sure this was a really stupid move made by a coworker. Can't be sure and it seems far too stupid a mistake in terms of business etiquette for someone with an Ivy BA and pretty-decent MBA to make, but it's the most obvious and generally-fitting answer.
