Title: bring back the original GOMP
Post by: zzesp on December 18, 2012, 09:53:44 PM
Hey Tom, Hows about bringing back the original GOMP---Get off my phone!!!!. What you can do with those 4 words is amazing. Its one of the things that drew me into the show back in 2003. I think you've probably done more heave hos by now. I think its time to bring back the GOMP!!! Two weeks ago I was yelling for you to give a good old fashioned GOMP to those  2 callers.Don't let that type get to you.......GOMP 'em!!!!!!! I've been wanting to call in and request this....but I'm a listener , not a caller. A while back you addressed the issue that not everyone needs to call...that you need listeners.....I'm there listening and will be as long as you keep doing it.

Funny enough, "heave ho" is one of the things that endeared me to the show in 2012.

Hang on to those memories, man.

I personally like the silent hang-up (a short pause, then "WFMU, you're on the air.").

Damn, this CAPTCHA shit is harder to get through than the eighth world in Super Mario Brothers. You guys should consider getting rid of it.

I like the silent hang-up pause as well. And I don't have CAPTCHA issues with this site. Is that something new to look forward to?

Yeah, there was. I think he's in a mental institution now. Sad stuff.
