I recieved the exact same call at about 22:53 last night on my cell phone. It lasted only about 30 seconds. At almost the exact same time I recieved a text message that pointed me here:

This probably has nothing to do with anything, but
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The name of the image on thisshouldnotexist.com (tsne.jpg) ROT-7s to "azul" which means blue in spanish.


edit: Maybe a mod should merge this thread with the other one that may have something to do with this that is locatedhere
