Is anyone else receiving calls from India from scammers posing as Microsoft, trying to gain remote access to our computers.?
I spent a few hours last night teaching myself how to cuss them out in Hindi, its amazing what you can teach yourself from Tinternet
It turns out that Hindi is a surprisingly rich language to swear at people with, the curses are very inventive and florid, and the reaction I got from my first Indian caller this morning made it all worthwhile.
I must post the link to the webpage .... Stops them in their little sandal shod tracks instantly.

That's amazing Orc', get them all the bloody time. "You have a fault with your computer sir?" - Me: "Really?! I don't have a computer, ££££ off!" Just as effective :)

I find that some Metallica down the phone works quite well :)

I find swearing in Hindi quite satisfying , It's a New Skill.
Girls only like guys with skills.

Just think how motivated teenagers would be to learn another language if you taught them all the juicy swear words first. I think I might try Mandarin next . Those inscrutable Devils at The Loon Fung takeaway better get the Chow Mein here quick stylee.
