“Hullo?”
“Hello.”
“Hell-oooo!”
“Hullo.”
“Hi.”
“Hullo.”
“Hey-Hey!”
“Hullo?”
“Hullo.”
“Hullo”
Hullo?”
“Hullo.”
“Hullo”

“Hello? Hello? Hello?”

“Hello? HELLO?!!”
“Hello, this is an important message from Sallie Mae about your student loan…”

“Hullo?”
“Hello, this is an important message from Sallie Mae about your student loan…”

“Hullo?”
“Hello, this is…”
“Hullo?”
“Hello, “
“HELLO?”
“Hello,”
“HEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLOOOOOO?”
“Hello, this is an important…”
“Daaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmmmnnnnn!”
“Hello, this is…”
I gave up. I never would have won.
