Just got a call from Medicare.

They asked who they were speaking to. I asked them who does Medicare have listed for this number, I don’t think Medicare calls random numbers. They hung up on me.

I bet you rambled about orange man bad or something. That is why they hung up.

Credit where credit is due. By calling Democrats, they are targeting the most gullible.

I got $5 that says that says this embellishment was actually nothing more than the DUm'Rat's usual debt collectors putting in the "yeah, you're a deadbeat, but as long as you keep answering the debt stays active on your credit report" phone call for the week.

Knowing DUmmys, ain't no way I take that bet.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

As phishing attempts go, that was so weak it must’ve been a project for students at a Prince Training Middle School in some third-world country. The students would get points for every call that wasn’t an immediate hang-up.

10. So why do I always have to tell the doctor's office my date of birth and full name?

Me: Let's see, you already have that info in front of you, right?

Reply: Well, yes - we just need to verify it's you.

Me: Well then how do I know that you are you? Spoofed phone#s, etc.

This is all part of the charade that the healthcare industry plays to try to satisfy HIPAA requirements. It's a piss-poor way of identifying people. When I go to the hospital and they ask my DOB, I usually subtract 100 years - sometimes the poor receptionist catches the obvious(?) error, sometimes not.

When I go to a particular department in the hospital after being fitted with a wrist-band with my name and DOB and am subsequently asked for the same information, I make a show of saying "Well, let me look at my wrist-band since I'm not sure who I am anymore."

If anyone is wondering why folks in Health Care seemed pissed off all the time, this moron is reason number 1.

18. Almost all of them think it's humorous and a change of the drill.

What gives you so much pain?

No. No they dont. You are an ass.

With any luck, erronis the errant’s cavalier attitude toward a basic ID protection measure will soon have it whining that some Trumplican stole its identity and medical info.

Erronius needs to change his name to jerk off.

When reading some of the comments over there I sometimes wonder if it’s a spin off of the bee :lmao: :lmao:
Could real people be so stupid, rude, ignorant and hateful.
