To have fun with a random text asking me what "services" I provide?

So fellow mnetters, would I be unreasonable to have fun with a random text asking me what "services" I provide? I was thinking of sending my dentist's price list but thought you all could help me formulate a response instead!

Also, I'd love to hear your experiences if you've ever received a similar text. Thanks!

Maybe a list of random and niche vets services? Squirrel Castration, Newt groom, hedgehog prickle trim?

Oh yes! Full tooth extraction or root canal for £1k. Maybe sterilisation services?

Over 25 years ago now, I had a man phone my mobile asking about the advert for an Escort. I was young and stupid and immediately said to him that I didn’t have a car for sale. There was then an awkward silence and a bit of throat clearing before the man explained he was talking about the non-car type 😂😂😂😂

I'd have said I had a Ford Fiesta to sell instead if he was interested!

Stretch out the naivety for a bit longer.
