Sky is crap. My parents have sky. They watch 1,2,3 and prime all the time. I keep telling them to switch to freeview.

I've faked a heart attack before, twas funny.
I've also asked them to "just hang on for a minute", put the phone down and left the house, I've always been curious to know how long they stay on till they clue on. I enjoy them, they usually hang up before I do ![]() Also asking questions with made up words is a good one, we don't get many anymore ![]() ps. Telemarketers are the scum of the earth...

We had Greenpeace at the door the other day. I opened the door, said "Can't afford it", as he launched into his spiel anyway. Waited a few moments .... "Still can't afford it".
Then we got into a debate about Greenpeace boats trying to block ships transporting nuclear waste via the Tasman Sea, with me saying that is probably MORE likely to cause a problem than if the ships were simply left alone. I ended up closing the door on him. And the Sally Army got told something similar the other week; "Sorry, don't agree with you giving $20K away to an offender so he can get set back up again - that should go to the victim; sorry, no money from meeee!!" |

For me its usually "Are you the bill payer?", hangup.
Oh yeah i had some good fun with Greenpeace. Turns out I am quite pro-nuclear. Sure there are risks and problems associated with waste product (if you dont manufacture nuclear arms), but hey, its the most efficient source of power. And I think 2 cubic meters worth of waste product for a year of operation is not so bad. fuck, ship it to the moon. I am also practically a carnivore. I went on to explain to him the damage that large crop growing operations have on the environment. I also explained to him why human were built to eat meat and hunt (well we are built to be omnivores). I am also NOT a big fan of shoving the "organic" label on over priced items. Anyhoo after half an hour of him listening to my rambles he said "I dont suppose you are going to support us?". I answered "No, I am going to fight you". It was fairly entertaining |

it is fun when you have the time to annoy them. I had this person from a personal loan place that cold called me repeat the whole thing about three times. then I said that I didn't own a home and he hung up. Luckily the same company called back again in two days and I had this guy waste 30 Min's trying to explain what he had to offer while I waited for tea to cook. As soon as it was cooked I said that I had not understood a single thing he said and hung up on him.
but most of the time they ring at the most inconvenient time and now we have caller id so if it is a with held number we don't answer. |

I guess I'm too nice to be stink to these kinds of people. The worst I've ever done was listen to a guy's entire spiel and then just hang up because I didn't know what to say. He called back and ranted that I had wasted his time :S
I bought a book off some random eastern religion chick on Cuba St once. I thought saying I didn't have cash would be enough to get her to piss off, but she said she'd escort me to a cash machine. I didn't even have the balls to decline that suggestion! |
