I have unlimited off peak minutes. Any way to burn them? Any peer-to-peer app? Distributed computing task?

I wasn't using my unlimited off peak at all until I met this girl recently. We've hit it off quite well, and I used like 1900 off peak last month alone (not all her though). So, find a girlfriend.

sometimes i call my home phone before i go to bed and let it run all night. you can burn 600 minutes in one call that way.

You just don't understand... do you?

You pay for these minutes every month... and once you use them, you lose them and they become worthless... So you want to use them as much as possible! DUH. :p

My friend was obsessed with using his unlimited nightime and weekend minutes. He had two cell phones and a home phone all in the same area code. He would call his home phone on the 1st cell phone and put it down. He then called his home phone again on call waiting with his 2nd cell phone. And put that one down. Then he'd go to bed. He did this every night and on weekends. He racked up 15,000 minutes or something like that. He's a moron!

ooh yeah that reminds me of another good one. before making any call, call your home and get that connection going. then make your normal call in three way calling and connect them all. now you are free to pick up either phone and talk. you burn 2x the minutes! yay!

and there is no point to doing this, other than "getting my money's worth." except i'm not really getting it cause the calls are for nothing. so there's no point.

people who do that = dumb.

I never ever go below 1,500 offpeak minutes, out of 2800 total, and my gf lives out of state, whom I talk to more than a manly man should admit.
