Check this guy out! It never cease to amaze me how people can gain satisfaction from things that most of us see no attraction to..... If these calls were charged he is in for one heck of a phone bill!
Lonely Japanese man calls directory help 2600 times
Wednesday Jan 30 16:30 AEDT
A lonely Japanese man has been arrested for allegedly calling directory assistance thousands of times because he liked to be scolded by female operators, police and reports said.
Takahiro Fujinuma — who is 37, single and unemployed — reportedly would whisper "darling" as he tried to start a conversation and then pleaded with operators not to hang up.
He was arrested in Tokyo on charges of obstructing the business of service operator NTT Solco, part of telecom giant Nippon Telegraph and Telephone.
He placed 2,600 calls to directory help — reached in Japan by dialling 104 — between early June and mid-November, a police spokesman said.
But Japanese media said he is suspected of starting his habit in 2004 and calling 104 more than 10,000 times.
He reportedly told police that he was lonely and grew to enjoy annoying the operators.
"I would go into ecstasy when a lady scolded me," he said, as quoted by Jiji Press.
Telephone operators — who in Japan are almost always women — nicknamed him the "don't-hang-up-man."
His calls usually came late and sometimes exceeded 200 times a night, Jiji Press said.
