German 'Swear away' hotline taking calls



Two German entrepreneurs have devised a way for passive-aggressive citizens to blow off some steam - dial a telephone number and give the person on the other end a verbal lashing.
The swearing hotline, know as "Schimpf-los" ("swear away") in German, has operators standing by seven days a week for frustrated individuals to jeer at and taunt using the most unsavoury language they can muster.
When callers are not creative in their cursing, or find themselves tongue-tied, operators on the hotline prod them with cheeky provocations like: "That's the third time I've heard that today - is that all you've got?"

The service costs 1.49 euros (US$1.80) per minute - a figure Schulte feels is completely justified.

"For getting everything off your chest, it's a bargain."

Can't they just abuse the telemarketers that call all day, like we do in the States?

Yes... what is wrong with those Germans?

There are plenty of people to abuse without resorting to PAYING for the pleasure.... in fact... I am thinking of CHARGING for my abuse... especially at places that have a recorded message warning that convos may be recorded (and used for staff training purposes).......
