People calling a federal phone number to order duck stamps are instead greeted by a phone-sex line, due to a printing error the government says would be too expensive to correct.

The carrier card for the duck stamp transposes two numbers, so instead of listing 1-800-782-6724, it lists 1-800-872-6724. The first number spells out 1-800-STAMP24, while the second number spells out 1-800-TRAMP24.

Who would pay $1.99 a minute for phone sex when you can get porno for free on the internet?

9/4/2008 10:08:57 PM

Internet costs about $30 a month, or roughly $0.00069/minute.

[Edited on September 4, 2008 at 10:14 PM. Reason : I guess you should figure up phone costs and shit along with computer costs too.]

[Edited on September 4, 2008 at 10:15 PM. Reason : I know where you were going though. Internet isn't free but it's cheap compared to phone sex.]

I think something similar happened with Time Warner...

they recently changed their toll-free number because if you transposed two numbers it became a phone sex line...

I found this out while trying to call TWC Customer Service while riding driving

^^ well considering that most use the internet the majority of the time for things other than porn, that isn't exactly a good analogy. I personally only use my internet connection about 5 minutes a day for porn, so do that math.

$0.20/minute

9/4/2008 10:24:08 PM

well for that price, I am pretty sure I can get the job done in 2 minutes. either that, or I will just start jerking off at work

ok DNL

I was just figuring cost of internet per minute vs cost of phone sex per minute.

It doesn't matter what you're using the internet for really.


5 minutes looking at porn * $.00069/min = $.00345 = .3 cents looking at porn for 5 minutes


This is not where this thread direction should be going.

ha! That's pretty funny. I buy mine at the PO and we bought our friends some at Gander Mountain. Don't waste your time going to Wal-Mart, they stopped carrying those too... along with all their other hunting stuff.

9/4/2008 11:06:04 PM

I have always gone to the USPO...

Wal-Mart never did have the stamps, but that IS where I buy my license

9/4/2008 11:07:55 PM

They did have the stamps at some stores. But only for a couple years. My Dad got his there once at the one in Randleman, I think it was.
