- boopmaster 3y agoas a telemarketer some 25 years ago, perchance I talked to your friend's dad. Although, he had said that he had just downed a handful of viagra and I was running the clock out on that so he really, really had to get off... the phone. Telemarketing was one of my first jobs between high school and college. I hated the job and I was fired because I couldn't sell anything to anyone. Area jobs were very slim and I didn't have much experience, and it paid considerably better than mcdonalds - I apologize to World+Dog for being that obnoxious nuisance. I landed a job in IT shortly therafter and never looked back.
- aidenn0 3y agoIf I were a telemarketer, I'd object to the improper use of "fornicate" which implies the sex is extra-marital.
- JohnFen 3y agoIt does? That implication never occurred to me at all. I think it implies nothing about the nature of the relationship at all. It's just a way to avoid saying "fuck".

Note that e.g. M-W does not list this secondary definition: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/fornication https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/fornication
