June 28, 201610 yr I college I actually found some time to drink beer with friends, actually, lots of beer. When a telemarketer called during these drinking sessions, we usually would say, "I am watching a porno, this better be good." The silence on the phone was golden before the click! I can't wait til I get the next call! Anyone want my number?
June 29, 201610 yr I have a friend who answers and speaks German to them. If I'm caught off-guard and answer the rare call, I usually just say, "She's not here right now" when they ask for me. And on some days, there could be truth in that. I go into Ole and Lena mode. "Yah vot du you vant"? One guy tried to sell me 4000# tie down straps for $59. I tout dat vas a good price, but I cout neffer lif dem! Who Dah hell can lift four tousand pouns?
