Was it really worth it?

Someone just called me from a company asking me if I remembered taking part in a marketing survey long ago.
Me: Uh no?
Him: Well, it was a very long time ago. Anyway, it's being going very well for us since then so we'd like to thank you for your participation and send you a thank-you-package of roseroot and rose-hip. You might've read about them in the papers recently?
Me: Uh no?
Him: Okay. Roseroot has a soothing effect against stress and tiredness and if you take it you'll notice the effect within about an hour.
My head: Okay, drugs.
Him: We want to send this free to you and all you have to pay is the postal charge of 59sek.
Me: I'm not interested, thank you.

This is the third best call like this I've had during the two years I've lived here. The call that got itself into second place was the guy who called from my telephone provider telling me that they did a follow-up since I'd had that provider for half a year now. I told him that I had only been there for three months and then he got all confused and hung up on me. I found it hilarious. Haven't heard from them since. The number one? The guy who called me from my internet provider to sell a portable broadband (not sure if that makes sense in English). We spoke World of Warcraft for five minutes before he realised why he'd called me. And no, he didn't get anything sold, but I'm pretty sure I brightened his day anyway.

You know, I'm upset. We had a discussion last week that gave us points and I didn't get the max-score. That pisses me off. I suppose it's bad if you dis the teacher who holds the discussion. A friend of mine tells me that I'm a bad loser. I don't think so. I don't mind losing really. What I mind is when my performance doesn't lead up to my expectations. (That happens quite a lot.) Sadly I can understand my friend though, since the annoyance of not being the best often reflects my behaviour and actions. And if my friend should read this I'm fairly sure the thought "whatever you say, girl" would join the other thoughts in said friend's head.
