特立独行：陕西十大怪

面条像腰带、锅盔像锅盖、辣子是道菜、泡馍大碗卖、碗盆难分开、帕帕头上戴、房子半边盖、姑娘不对外、不坐蹲起来、唱戏吼起来。陕西十大怪其实是一种独特的生活... 俗话说，"百里不同风，十里不同俗。"在陕西这块黄土地上，由于气候、经济、文化等多方面原因的影响，陕西人（关中人）在衣、食、住、行、东等方面，形成了一些独特的方式。外地人对此十分好奇，经过汇集称之为"陕西十大怪"（即"关中十大怪"）：面条像腰带、锅盔像锅益、辣子是道菜、泡馍大碗卖、碗盆难分开、帕帕头上戴、房子半边盖、姑娘不对外、不坐蹲起来、唱戏吼起来等。 一、面条像腰带 "扯面宽得像裤带"。扯面也叫冰冰（读biang--biang，现代汉语字典上没有这个字）面，正宗的关中人所做的冰冰面和通常城里人所吃的扯面还是有一定区别的。正宗的冰冰面，一根面条宽度可达二三寸，长度则在1米上下，厚度厚时与硬币差不多，薄时却如同蝉翼。一根面条足够一顿饭，而对大饭量的关中人来说，一顿吃8两、1斤也是轻轻松松的。 关中人吃面，喜欢将面和硬揉软、擀厚、切宽。这种面煮熟以后，捞在碗里，无论是浇臊子，还是泼油辣子，吃起来都很光滑、柔软、热火、有筋性。既可口又耐饥。人们脖子一伸一缩，呼噜噜吞进肚里，吃饱吃胀，饱嗝一打，顿时浑身上下都是力气，拉架子车、上山扛石头，五六个小时不吃不喝也不觉得饿。 二、锅盔像锅盖 相传在唐代修乾陵时，因服役的军人工匠人数过多，往往为吃饭而耽误施工进度，受到惩罚。于是，有一士兵在焦急之中便把面团放进头盔里，把头盔放到火中去烤，而烙成饼。现在算起来锅盔在陕西已有上千年的历史了。 做锅盔，面要和得很硬，硬得用手都揉不动，要借用木杠来压揉，然后放在直径2尺以上的大锅中慢慢烤制而成。这样，烙成的锅盔外脆晨酥，清香可口，放上十天八天也不会变味。锅盔要数"乾州（今乾县）锅盔"好。 三、辣子是道菜 至于说辣子，一般人都以为是湖南人、四川人能吃辣椒。其实四川人只是把辣子当成一种调料，而在陕西"没泼辣子"却是一道正经八百的菜肴。就连西安城里家家户户前也是挂满一串串喜人的红辣椒。 "油泼辣子"看着红、闻着香、吃着辣，既能用来调面，又能夹馍吃。人们常说"油泼辣子冰冰面吃着燎（好）乍咧！" 四、泡馍大碗卖 "牛羊肉泡馍大碗卖"可称上是"陕西第一泡"、"西安第一碗"。到西安不吃牛羊肉泡馍似乎是白来一趟。而牛羊肉泡馍要数回民食品了。 关中人吃饭讲究实惠，肉是大块的肉，馍是硬梆梆的死面托托馍，碗是能盛6两8两的大老碗。刚端上来的羊肉泡馍很烫，呼呼地直冒热气，吃时用筷子从贴碗的四周往嘴边拨，边拨边吃。 羊肉泡的作法主要分煮肉、烙馍、熬汤、掰馍和煮馍。肉要煮得又酥又烂。馍要烙得又硬又黄，还要遇水不化、百煮不烂。汤用牛羊肉骨髓熬成。馍要掰得越碎越匀越好，然后将馍、肉、粉丝、葱、盐、味精等调料加入，在炒瓢内旺火爆煮。 由于烹煮的方法不同，羊肉泡馍为煮馍和小炒。加汤的多少不同，分为干泡（汤少）和水围城（汤多），吃得自有分寸。这种泡馍有干有汤，又热又香，很叫人开胃口。所以泡馍馆，便选用一种耀州（耀县）产的大瓷碗来装盛泡馍。 五、碗盆难分开 陕西人（老陕）吃饭，喜欢用一种耀州产的近1尺的白瓷青花大碗，当地人称为"老碗"。这种老碗甚至比小盆还大，所以往往碗盆难分。 在关中农村，每到吃饭时，村头、庄前、树下，男人们就端着大老碗（一碗汤饭外加两块馍足有六七两），蹲在一起，津津有味地边吃饭边啦着话，这就是有名的"老碗会"。 在农村，人们劳动强度大，干活出力多，吃饭也多，所以出门用老碗盛一下就够了，不用再回家去盛饭，省了不少麻烦。 六、帕帕头上戴 以前在反映陕西人生活的"西部片"中，经常看到戴羊肚毛巾、身穿对襟夹袄的老汉及老年妇女头上都戴着（顶着）一块黑色或白色的帕帕（手帕）。你如有幸到关中农村，这里的形，和你在电影里看到的的一模一样的。 原来陕西地区盛产棉花，当地人习惯把用棉花织成的手帕戴在头上，它既可防尘防雨防晒，还可以擦汁擦手和用来包东西，真可谓既经济又实惠方便。 七、房子半边益 无论是在西安城还是陕西农村，都随处可见"一边盖"的房子。何为一边盖？一般的房子房顶为人字形，可是陕西的房子却是人字的一撇。据说因为陕西干早少雨，所以这一边盖的房子能让珍跺的雨水全部流到自家的田地里，正所谓"肥水不流外人田"。 又因，在近百年来陕西农业发展缓慢，人口却迅猛增加。农村中原来聚居生活的家庭，因土地面积有限，而人口众多，住宅紧张，于是便形成了房子"半边盖"的历史。 八、姑娘不对外 据说关中地区土地肥沃，所以极少有人为生存而奔波于他乡异地。因而有"老不出关（潼关），少不下川（四川）"的谚语，久而久之，不仅男人们不外出远行，就连姑娘们也不远嫁他乡。 九、不坐蹲起来 由于关中的男子们一日三餐都要蹲要一起开"老碗会"，贿一蹲就是一个多小时加之人们冬天喜欢蹲在背风向阳的地方"晒暖暖"或者"丢方"、下棋。于是，关中人就养成了"蹲"的习惯。外地人说这是"板凳不坐蹲起来"。实际上是人们劳累后歇息的一种习惯。 十、唱戏吼起来 唱戏，指秦腔。其特点是高昂激越、强烈急促。尤其是花脸的演唱，更是扯开嗓子大声吼，当地人称之为"挣破头"，外地人开玩笑："唱秦腔，一是舞台要结实，以免震垮了；二是演员身体要好，以免累病了；三是观众胆子要大，以免吓坏了"。 吼戏者，脸红脖子粗，吼得"走火入魔"，但只要观众叫声"好"，这吼戏者的高兴程度不亚于获得什么大奖，人们认为，这才是真正的秦腔，听起来"过瘾"、"解馋"、"燎得太（好极了）"。

New (and old) ways to have fun with telemarketers and keep your money.

Worry them:
1. Have you seen my hamster? Oh no! Do you know how to get a hamster out of a drain? Let me turn on a light..." then turn on the garbage disposal and scream "NOOOOOOOOOOO" until they hang up. (variation: Ask them what they think would happen if you put a frog in a blender. Later, tell them they were wrong. )

2. When they are giving their description of the product, ring your door bell...go back to the phone and say can you hang on a second... and pretend there is a guy selling something at the door, say "I've told you how many times I am not interested!, Virginia get my Shotgun!" and then hang up.
If your watching a war movie put the phone next to the speaker when there are people screaming and explosions etc. and tell the telemarketer that you are 'busy'.

3. If they clean rugs: "Can you get blood out, you can? Well, how about goat blood or HUMAN blood - chicken blood too?"
If they are selling some type of skin care product, say that you don't have any skin.

4. Say: "You cruel rude insensitive person he died while using your product, now you have the nerve to call back and try to sell him another one. Take him off you list, or have your attorney call ours."

5. Answer: "911 Emergency. State your emergency?"
They will be confused. "Hello? What is your emergency?"
Telemarketer: "Um, no emergency... wrong number"
Reply: "A wrong number eh? What other number is three digits? We are sending an officer over immediately."

--==--

Annoy them:

6. Tell them to talk VERY SLOWLY, because you want to write EVERY WORD DOWN.

7. If Phone Company calls trying to get you to sign up with their Family and Friends plan, reply, in as sinister a voice as you can muster, "I don't have any friends...would you be my friend?"

8. If they start out with, "How are you today?" say, "Why do you want to know?" Or you can say, "I'm so glad you asked, because no one seems to care these days and I have all these problems, my sciatica is acting up, my eyelashes are sore, my dog just died...." When they try to get back to the sales process, just continue on with telling about your problems.

9. "Sir, I am calling from "Peapod", the home delivery grocery service.
Where do you now shop for groceries?"
"I don't."
"How do you eat?"
"I have a vegetable garden and a cow."
(click)

10. Some people have good success by answering:
"do you mind if i record this conversation for quality control or training purposes?"

--==--

Confuse them:

11. You: Answer the phone with
"Hello, is Steve there?"
Them: "Ah...., No"
You: "I'm sorry. I must have the wrong number." Click!

Variation: Telemarketer: I'm selling...
Victim: I'm sorry. I'm not here right now.

12. Q: "Hello sir, may we speak to the person of the house who pays the phone bill?"
A: "We don't have a phone"...

13. Tell them you work for the same company they work for. Example:
Telemarketer: "This is Bill from Widget & Associates."
You: "Widget & Associates!! Hey I work for them too. Where are you calling from?"
Telemarketer: "Uh, Dallas, Texas."
You: "Great, they have a group there too? How's business/the weather? Too bad the company has a policy against selling to employees! Oh well, see ya."

14. After they tell you the product they're selling, ask them if it comes with a free blender. If they say no, tell them that you won't buy from them without a free blender, and hang up.

15. Answer: "You're the sixth caller to KFWT radio. Just answer this question to win $25,000.
Who was the first United States president?"
When they say "George Washington", tell them they won the $25,000. Ask for their name, address and phone number. Then tell them to go home immediately to receive a confirmation call.

So, these are "the fifteen ways to leave you telemarketer", to paraphrase one famous song :) Now let's see it in action:

Me: Hello
AT&T: Hello, this is AT&T....
Me: Is this AT&T?
AT&T: Yes, this is AT&T....
May I speak to Mr. Salem please?
Me: May I ask who is calling?
AT&T: This is AT&T.
Me: OK, hold on.
At this point, I put the phone down for a solid 5 minutes...
when I picked up the receiver, she was still waiting.
Me: Hello?
AT&T: Is this Mr. Salem?
Me: May I ask who is calling please?
AT&T: Yes, this is AT&T....
Me: The phone company?
AT&T: Yes, sir.
Me: I thought you said this was AT&T... Besides, I already have a phone.
AT&T: Mr. Salem, we would like to offer you 10 cents a minute, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
Me: 7 days a week?
AT&T: That's right.
Me: 365 days a year?
AT&T: Yes, sir.
Me: I am definitely interested in that! Wow!! That's quite a sum of money!
AT&T: Yes, sir, it's amazing how it adds up.
Me: OK, so will you send me checks weekly, monthly or just one big one at the end of the year for the full $52,560? If you send an annual check, can I get a cash advance?
AT&T: Excuse me?
Me: You know, the 10 cents a minute.
AT&T: What are you talking about?
Me: You said you'd give me 10 cents a minute, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. That comes to $144 per day, $1,008 per week and $52,560 per year. I'm just interested in knowing how you will be making payment.
AT&T: Oh no, sir, I didn't mean we'd be paying you. You pay us 10 cents a minute.
Me: Wait a minute here! Don't use your alien brainwashing techniques on me.
I insist on speaking to a supervisor!
AT&T: Yes, Mr. Salem. Please hold...
Supervisor: Mr. Salem?
Me: Yeah?
Supervisor: I understand you are not quite understanding our 10 cents a minute program.
Me: No, actually I was just waiting for someone to get back to me so that I could sign up for the plan.
Supervisor: OK, no problem, I'll transfer you back to the person who was helping you.
Me: Thank you.
AT&T: Hello, Mr. Salem. I understand that you are interested in signing up for our plan?
Me: Mr. Salem is not here right now would you prefer to speak to Slob Boy, Gutter Boy, BrainDead Man .....

Finally, a little advice:

When you get those pre-approved letters in the mail for everything from credit cards to 2nd mortgages and junk like that, most of them come with postage paid return envelopes, right? Well, why not get rid of some of your other junk mail and put it in these cool little envelopes! Send an ad for your local chimney cleaner to American Express, or a pizza coupon to Citibank. If you didn't get anything else that day, then just send them their application back... blank! Eventually, the banks and credit card companies will begin getting all their junk back in the mail. Let's let them know what it's like to get junk mail, and best of all...THEY'RE paying for it! Twice!
