You're
Drunk...who You Gonna Call?

CANBERRA (Reuters) - An Australian phone
company is offering customers the chance to blacklist numbers before
heading out for a night on the town so they can reduce the risk of making
any embarrassing, incoherent late-night calls.

 A survey of 409 people by Virgin Mobile, a joint
venture of The Virgin Group and Optus, found 95 percent made drunk calls.

Of those
calls, 30 percent were to ex-partners, 19 percent to current partners, and
36 percent to other people, including their bosses.

The company also found that 55
percent of those polled would grab for their phone first the next morning
to check who they had drunkenly dialed, compared with just eight percent
who went for the headache pills first

That is
hilarious. The number of boodie calls would significantly decline and
unwanted pregnancies with people you never wanted to be permanently linked
to anyway. Brilliant.
