When I was younger (and less sane) I created Answerphonia. She lived in the phone, and when ever the answerphone came on I would pretend that she was talking to me or my parents. I got very upset when my parents gently explained that Answerphonia didn't exist, and that it was normal people that were talking. I refused to believe them, and when the answerphone stopped working I fished it out the bin and dug a grave for it.
I was a weird kid.
