Mad at Congress? Drunk dial them

Hello, Congress? We’re, like, so mad at you right now!

A hilarious new website is helping Americans “drunk dial” Congress, offering frustrated folks a forum for venting about the government shutdown.

Users enter their phone number into the Website — aptly titled DrunkDialCongress.org — and then receive a call back within seconds.

A recording of a man slurring his speech then sounds off about the joys of getting drunk and giving people a piece of your mind. The system then connects you with an actual randomly chosen phone line for a real member of Congress.

The site even offers callers suggested “talking points,” including gems such as:

*How dare you?

*You jerks are costing the country $12 million bucks per hour!

*I can’t watch the panda.

*You had one job to do & you failed!

* How dare you not fund veterans.

* Why don’t you make yourself useful and at least mow the lawn?

The website suggests theme cocktails to aid with the drunk dialing, including ones called “The Bad Representative” and “The Fancy Statesman.”
