I’d link the relative TVTropes pages, but I’d feel guilty about your missed sleep
Nothing against the people in the original meme, but your title would be an amazing name for this trope. Well done
Could potentially be confused with ‘The Call Left a Message’ though, which is a little different.
I do like the names of a few related ones, like ‘The Call Has Bad Reception’ and ‘Got The Call On Speed Dial’.
TV Tropes is hilarious at moments like these!
It’s hilarious at all the moments. That’s why I can never go there again.
I’ve had a character like that. Was a skilled herbalist, discovered weed somewhere, grew tons of ganja and only went on adventures from autumn until spring because the summers were short and precious where he lived. Thus he spent all sunny days being high as a kite in a hammock at the homestead he built.
“Chill, fate. It’s August soon enough!”
Hits blunt
Just go hangout in a whale for a while. Maybe they’ll give up.
