A short adventure where a google hangout lad (the only form of life that is close to a hitlad in total brain matter) runs into an old man with dementia who asks lots of questions and then forgets the answers. I’m hoping he comes back but the first few days of silliness are worth sharing. Enjoy!

00000

Lad: Car!ing Christie
How are you doing Today?

00000

Me: hello
do i know you?

00000

Lad: Am David XXXXX From DHL Company and am here for your transfer

00000

Me: what do you mean?

00000

Lad: Am here to transfer your fund in your Account

00000

Me: what fund? i'm sorry but i don't know what this is about

00000

Lad: Your compassion funds worth $5.2million

(The source of the fund seems to elude his autocorrect a couple times. Ah, the confusion.)

00000

Me: WHAT?!!

00000

Lad: And if I may ask, do you have credit card or Walmart credit card?

00000

Me: is this some kind of joke?

00000

Lad: Listen to me my dear friend am not here to joke with you OK
Listen to me again
Do you have credit card?

00000

Me: no, i don't. i don't really have a way to use one
not in my condition
why do you ask?

00000

Lad: Because that's where we can transfer it easy
And you will receive it easy

00000

Me: i wish i did!
this is all quite a surprise
how did this happen?

00000

Lad: I'll transfer it to the credit card

00000

Me: like i said, i don't have one

00000

Lad: And what of Walmart card

00000

Me: walmart? we don't have that here, sorry. it's a really small place

00000

Lad: Okay

00000

Me: so where did all this money come from?

00000

Lad: Which country are you?

00000

Me: usa
in hawaii

00000

Lad: You are in USA in Hawaii and you didn't have Walmart office there?

00000

Me: not on this island, no
and like i said, i dont have credit cards anyway

00000

Lad: I didn't understand
What did you said?

00000

Me: i said i don't have a credit card, regardless of where it came from.
walmart or the bank or whatever

00000

Lad: Walmart credit card

00000

Me: and there's no walmart here anyway so that doesn't matter

00000

Lad: Okay

00000

Me: i didn't even know walmart HAD a credit card

00000

Lad: What of money gram or western union office?

00000

Me: i doubt it but i can ask my nurse to check when he gets back on monday
why?
you can't send that kind of money that way!
and you still didn't answer my question, why am i getting so much money out of nowhere?????

00000

Lad: This is competition fund from Benin Republic government

(Thank you again, autocorrect.)

00000

Me: what kind of competition?

00000

Lad: And they are doing it to everyone

00000

Me: everyone? what does that mean?

00000

Lad: My dear friend I have said my own and that is all I have to say

00000

Me: you said everyone is getting the money, i don't get it

00000

Lad: What else do you want me to say

00000

Me: you said there was a competition in benin
what kind of competition? that doesn't make sense
did i win something?

00000

Lad: Compensation fund

00000

Me: oh, that's different. compensation for what? i've never been to benin. that's in africa, right?

00000

Lad: Wast Africa

00000

Me: so why i am getting money from there?

00000

Lad: Not in real Africa

(?)

00000

Me: oh, i didn't know there was a difference between those. sorry

00000

Lad: Like I said this is from government

00000

Me: you never said why
i just want to be sure this isn't going to get me in trouble
i'm too old for that kind of thing

00000

Lad: No no no my friend this is not getting you in to any trouble OK
But if I may ask, How old are you now?

00000

Me: 93
how old are you?

00000

Lad: Okay, Am 52

00000

Me: lol, i don't even remember that long ago!

00000

Lad: So my brother
I'll need your full bank account information for the transition OK

00000

Me: i don't know about that, you know that's not safe, right? we're in google and i am NOT going to let THEM see that!
you can mail me a cashier's check, that would work

00000

Lad: I should email you

00000

Me: okay

00000

Lad: But if I may ask
Where can you pick up the money once is transferred?

00000

Me: if you send a cashier's check in the mail i can just have someone deposit it for me

00000

Lad: Transfer is all we do OK

00000

Me: then i'll need to create a new account or something

00000

Lad: Yes

00000

Me: maybe off shore, that's safer

00000

Lad: That's why I said that we need the Walmart card or any credit card
So that we can transfer the money to the credit card.

00000

(Time to push him toward the old lad loaded-ATM-card bit, just to add another change of direction.)

Me: i don't think it works like that but why don't you put it on a card and just send it to me? like a cash card or atm thing? won't that work?

00000

Lad: I think that will work but credit card is all the best

00000

Me: let me know because i can't get a credit card right away. i don't think they'd give me one anyway, i don't have a job. i retired a long time ago!

00000

Lad: Okay
Look around OK

00000

Me: they're going to take the computer away in ten minutes and i won't be online until monday so don't get worried if i drop off the line
look around where?

00000

Lad: For the credit card

00000

Me: that's funny
the only place i look is around this room
i'm in a hospital bed you know

00000

Lad: Ooh...
I don't know my dear

00000

Me: it's okay, i've accepted things. i have cancer and am in hospice here.

00000

Lad: Ooh...

00000

Me: they say i'll live maybe 6 months, maybe longer

00000

Lad: Am sorry for that OK

00000

Me: thanks

00000

Lad: You are welcome dear

00000

Me: but all that money would sure make my last days interesting
move to a nice place with a view of the ocean
and lots of beautiful nurses!
instead of the guy i have now. he's nice but a young girl with big tits would be better
Smile

00000

Lad: Okay
You said something about ATM card?

00000

Me: yes, can't you put money onto an atm card and send it to me? you can load money onto all sorts of cards these days, right?

00000

Lad: Okay

00000

Me: then you can just mail it to me, that's easy

00000

Lad: Should we send the ATM card or will you bring the credit card?

00000

Me: like i told you, i don't have a credit card
i have to get off the computer now, can we finish our arrangements on monday?

00000

Lad: Okay

00000

Me: okay, see you then

00000

(And then I was gone.)

00000

Lad: But the ATM card will cast you some little money
Are you there?

00000

(Monday arrives and the lad is back. Unfortunately for him, our poor old guy has a REALLY short memory. It eventually seems to get on the poor little pet’s nerves.)

00000

Lad: Hello Dear Brother
How are you doing today?

00000

Me: hi

00000

Lad: How was your day going

00000

Me: same as always
thats how hospice is

00000

Lad: Good

00000

Me: not really

00000

Lad: I know you are getting better right now right?

00000

Me: nope, just getting older
this is my last stop

00000

Lad: Ok
So how did you go about the credit card that we talked about?

00000

Me: what do you mean?

00000

Lad: We are talking about credit card before with ATM card.

00000

Me: i dont remember so well at my age, im sorry
remind me, okay?

00000

Lad: Ok
When are you getting on the credit card or should we send the ATM card to you?

00000

Me: getting what?
i dont understand

00000

Lad: I said that we want to transfer your fund in to an credit card so if you have the credit card you can get back to us with the information so that we will transfer your money on there.

00000

Me: credit card? i dont have a credit card

00000

Lad: Or should we send you the ATM card

00000

Me: what kind of atm card?

00000

Lad: The ATM card what you know

00000

Me: im sorry but i dont remember

00000

Lad: Or should we send an credit card?

00000

Me: send it for what exactly? i dont need a credit card, there's nothing for me to buy from this hospital bed

00000

Lad: How old are you?

(I guess he’s a bit forgetful too.)

00000

Me: 93

00000

Lad: Ok
Congratulations for that

00000

Me: probably won't get to 94
i had a good life

00000

Lad: So are you telling me that you didn't want your fund or what?

00000

Me: what fund?

00000

Lad: I didn't understand you again
Why are you keep on asking me some stupid questions

00000

Me: im sorry, im an old man and i dont remember things, please try to understand
i need you to help by explaining things
i'll write them down this time so i won't forget

00000

Lad: I told you about your compassion funds worth some millions Dollars

00000

Me: how much millions? that's very exciting

00000

Lad: You told me that you are going to weekend last week and coming back this week and all you do is to ask me stupid questions.
Please if you are not ready for your funds just let me know and stop insulting me OK.

00000

Me: they arent stupid, i just don't remember so well. wait until you get old and have to deal with alzheimer's
its very frustrating to me and no, im not insulting you
like i said, please explain what you said to me and i will write it down this time so i can remind myself

00000

Lad: I said that you have some fund with us worth some millions dollars

00000

Me: from where? that's awesome!

00000

Lad: Your compassion funds worth some millions dollars and we want to transfer it to you.

00000

Me: is that what the atm card is for?

00000

Lad: Yes

00000

Me: i see now, so are you going to mail it to me?
and how does it work?

00000

Lad: We can transfer it into the ATM card and send it to you immediately OK.

00000

Me: and then I can just use it?

00000

Lad: Yes

00000

Me: wow!
how much money is it?

00000

Lad: You mean how much it will cost you?

00000

Me: no, how much is going to be on the arm card?

00000

Lad: $5.2millions

00000

Me: that's crazy!
i love it
when can you send it?

00000

Lad: When you are ready to receive it

00000

Me: sooner the better, i'm not getting any younger
How will you send it?

00000

Lad: Okay
I'll transfer the money on it then send it through the dhl company and they will send it to you immediately OK

00000

Me: that's amazing
let me look and see if dhl delivers here, its a really small place
can you send it in the mail? dhl doesn't deliver here

00000

lad: Ok, I'll like to hear your voice so that we can talk better OK

00000

Me: im sorry but i don't have a phone. i don't think i could hear the stupid thing anyway, im pretty much deaf at my age
thats why i like the computer to talk to people

00000

Lad: Okay
But I don't think you can receive the ATM card through mail

00000

Me: why not? you just put it in an envelope don't you?

00000

Lad: Because if you received it through mail that means you are not going to use it.
Ok

00000

Me: what do you mean by that?
of course i'll use it, it doesn't matter how it gets here

00000

Lad: If is envelope that will be better

00000

Me: that will work in the mail

00000

Lad: Okay yeah, So when is it going to be because is going to cost you some little fees and I hope you know that?

(I’ve been running him around in circles for days and it finally occurs to him that his job is really to soak me for some cash.)

00000

Me: what do you mean?

00000

Lad: It will cost you some little money

00000

Me: for what?

00000

Lad: Before you receive it

00000

Me: right, but what is it for

00000

Lad: Since you didn't have the credit card! We want to transfer the money through the ATM card and you will start using it.

00000

Me: but what is the fee you mentioned

00000

(And now he starts rushing and his auto-correct makes life even more frustrating for him.)

Lad: You will use it to widows your money everyday by day

00000

Me: im sorry, what do you mean by widows? that didnt make sense

00000

Lad: The fee is the transfer fee ofcuse
Listen to me Car!ing Christie

00000

Me: i am

00000

Lad: If you are not ready for your funds just let me know and stop insulting me

00000

Me: im not insulting you, you said " You will use it to widows your money everyday by day"
what does that mean?
and of course i want the money

00000

Lad: So are you Weller to sand the money or not?

(That was a good one…)

00000

Me: now you typed "weller to sand" and that makes no sense at all. are you using your phone so that it changes the words?

00000

Lad: I didn't understand

00000

Me: look at what you sent, i think the words got changed "weller to sand" makes no sense
was it "willing to send"?

00000

Lad: Ooh...

00000

Me: pretty funny
what did you mean about the money every day by day?
hello? are you there?
where are you? please don't ignore me, i want to get this done so i can get the card
please come back!
was this all just some sort of mean joke?

00000

He bolted but, if he’s a typical hangout lad, he’ll be back in a few days. I fear that our poor Car1ing won’t have “written everything down” correctly.
Hehehe.

That's funny, you should do one where your character is lucid, but forgets everything when they go to sleep, so the lad has to try and rush them through the con to the payment stage before they go to bed, otherwise they have to begin again from zero in the morning. Maybe some days let them get really close, like you're about to drive to the bank, but you have a glass of wine and fall asleep....

Snicker...oh yes, a world of possibilities! I think I'm about to have some trouble reading my own handwriting this time around...
