  1. i r != nub says:

    probability ity?

  2. cakeislie says:

    It would make more sense if the person could remember his home and cell numbers, but funny nonetheless.

    • The L says:

      My boyfriend can never remember his own cell number. His excuse is that he never calls his own cell and therefore has never had any reason to remember it. Besides, if someone asks him for it, he can always just get out his cell and look it up…

      I then point out that I’ve had my cell phone number for just as long as he has, and never have any trouble remembering mine.

      • Raisin says:

        Because I remember things I hear more than things I see, I swear it took me around half a year to remember my cell-phone number.

  3. yet another Jennifer says:

    And this song is one of the many reasons I refuse to answer to Jenny.

    And that’s NOT my phone number

  4. gazdinf says:

    and what about “0118 999 881 999 119 725 3″ in IT crowd? :)

  5. ethana2 says:

    Guess what my number is!
    1 415 926 5358 (extension 979)

  6. tremaparagon says:

    If only they gave an area code. We could see what that number really is. Or if you’re lucky enough to live in the same area.

    • monkeysee says:

      It was a cali area code (LA?), and was a real number. I want to say that they have pretty much gotten this number out of the books since this GD song came on the scene.

  7. brewski says:

    Graph is incorrect. What if the number for a good time is also the number for your mom?

  8. kim says:

    call 1 800 267 2001 Alaaaaarm Force!
    or
    800 588 2300 Em-pire!
    Jingles really are useful if ever I need an alarm system or carpeting installed.
    And what was the name of that song anyway? The 867 53 oh nineine song.

  9. kim says:

    nevermind. Ignore the last sentence of my last comment. I scrolled back up and feel like an idiot.

  10. N M N E says:

    That’s…odd. my cell is 867-5309. I’m not MY idea of a good time, and I’m pretty sure I’m not anyone else’s either…

  11. Raven says:

    Well, I remember both my own cell number and home number, since I have to give it out to people all the time. And people who don’t know what number they have always seems stupid.
    And and and, I kind of remember 911.

  12. novelnova says:

    i remember mr cell and home phone;
    wouldn’t you feel kinda dumb if someone asks for one of those, and you’re like ‘i don’t know it’….

  13. Skyfire77 says:

    “8-6-7-5-3-0-9. That’s it. No wait that’s not it. Damn you Tommy Tutone!”

  14. karla says:
