Once when my mom answered a telemarketer we did a "domestic dispute" scenario. It was funny.
I try to sell them plumbing.
Yup.
I say something completely disturbing or ridiculous, like one time they were like "hey i'm blah blah blah..." Then outta nowhere I just say "Um can you call back? I am fapping right now, can't really talk and fap at the same time" then they are like "Oh... okay?" then they hang up, I actually said that one time that is why I used it as an example it was fucking halarious hahaha. But don't worry I wasn't haha. Also another one of my favorites I have done was the chinese lady. She was trying to sell me insurance of some kind, and then I just randomly said "me so hoooorneh, me love you long time", then she said "oh well thank you, thats kind" and then she kept trying to sell me the insurance, I was thinking wow did she really rebound from such a random phrase? Then I just hung up haha.
I talk jibberish to them, and my mom yells random things at them, sometimes just yells "UGH!!!!!!" really loud at them and hangs up
And camoslash...what...the...h- *phone rings*Living life takes forever

Oh yes, this sometimes. Once my dad started saying this: "No, thanks, but we have 3 chickens for sale, are you interested?" The telemarketer was like "err.." and hanged up, we just laughed on it.
Another funny tactic is saying that you're immensely rich, so when somebody tries to persuade us into a vacation: "Oh, thanks, but we're going to Hawaii/the Moon on holidays anyways".
But yeah, still, most of the time we kindly say "No thanks".
Flights to Hawaii dont cost much!
"Hello sir, apologies but I'm not interested in your product. Sorry but have a good day."
You guys are fucking dicks
I dont do anithing. i only turn of the phoneYour layout has been removed.
Since appearently I have a dark voice when talking with strangers on the phone, they always think I am the "man" of the house and just play along for a while, ending the call by saying "I'll have a word with my dad when he comes home" just to troll them :3
We have caller ID, so Usually I just pick up and hang up just to make the phone shut up. If I do actually get bored, I pretend to act interested, and play along untill the end- when I do this- Wait, so what is included in this offer again?
Then they go through the whole rant again. I just repeat this until they get pissed and hang up.You, what do you own the world? How do you own disorder, disorder?
Now, somewhere between the sacred silence, sacred silence and sleep.
Somewhere between the sacred silence and sleep.
Disorder, disorder, disorder.

I HATE calls like this. The other day I answered the phone and there was some woman requesting me to do a survey over the phone. She was then saying it would only take a minute of my time. However, the moment I heard the word "survey", I was tempted to say "FUCK OFF" but they would record the call, so I just said "sorry, not interested" and hung up. I will never and I mean NEVER EVER do surveys over the fucking phone!
I also hate idiots trying to sell insurance over the phone. Excuse me, but we have enough insurance adverts on the TV!
Silly americans, get called by people they don't know.
Why isn't that illegal anyway, calling someone just to sell something I mean.Your layout has been removed.
I usually tell them I'm not interested, or I make them sound stupid for calling about fitting windows into my home, then I say, can you do it 9 floors in the air? then they hang up.
I hang up the phone right when I hear that they want to sell whatever it is they want to sell.
I haven't actually got called by any to be honest. Well, the main reason is because I don't have a home phone yet probably. However, if I was to have one, I'd probably most likely ignore it as I would any commercial.
I don't really get calls like that much (mainly because I normally don't answer the phone when it's ringing, since it's pretty rare that someone is actually calling to talk to me), but a few years ago we used to get calls like that a lot, because I, smart as I am, entered my family's phone number on the internet for many random competitions. When I answered calls like that I always just said "No." when I understood that they just wanted to sell something and hung up.
@leod: Mainly because there's not really a way to stop it.
I usually just wait for them to finish their spiel and I reply:
"I'm sorry, but we're not interested at this time."
I listen to them and tell them I'm not interested but if they're anything like my old banks or insurance companies calling me over and over again after I refuse to buy insurance I don't want then I get mad and tell them off.I think a post layout goes here somewhere...
