Only telemarketers I get these days are the police. I tell them no thanks and hang up. |

Wow that guy popped his cork.
I forget who said this line, but a guy told a telemarketer that he was eating dinner. He then asked the telemarketer what time he usually eats dinner and asked for his home phone number and said he would return the call around that time. |

I don't deal with them at all, thats why caller ID is worth its weight on gold. I also have special rings for the people that I want to talk to. Dealing with telemarketers, is like dealing with a mosquito, they are always trying to harrass you, and when you get rid of the one that bit you, there are hundreds more to take over.
So, its really a losing battle unless you just want to have fun with one of em....I like John Spartan's idea......just blow the hell out of em!!!! |

I love telemarketers....they are SOOOOO fun to screw with. I usually turn it around and try to sell them something. Was at a friend's house once and a telemarketer called her and she knew I liked to fuck with em so she handed me the phone. I had this asshole convinced that I was on the way to do a crack deal and that I would buy a case of "forever lightbulbs". He was asking me how much I made on every deal, and how he could get into the business...hahaha....we had it recorded, but I stopped being friends with her sortly after (she was actually my ex-wife's best friend and we divorced)....hmmm...I wonder if she still has it, she was/is an absolute hottie too, still wouldn't mind knocking off a piece of that.

Between various do not call lists, call blocking and talking caller ID on my Panasonic phones and an out of service tone on my call answer I've got them down to about 4 or 5 nuisance calls a year now.
I have to say it's been an uphill battle all the way but the results have been worth it.
Peace and quiet at last! 
As for the guy in the wav file, I feel sorry for him as I know exactly where he is coming from, but threats of physical violence are the quick route to having the local constabulary knocking at your door the next day... |

HA HA HA! I was off. I kept thinking it was from "Home Improvement" or "Roseanne"
I remember the applause after the hangup!
Thanks for the clip. |

I did telemarketing for 2 months. I used to put those kind of folks in the "call back in 30 minutes" queue just for shits and giggles.
