I keep Gettin These Calls
Yesterday morning I got a call from a solicitor about mortgage reduction..to which I replied, "Hold on for a minute and take a deep breath" At which time I lowered the phone and let a big PBBBBTTTT into the phone. I then said, "I hope you got a big whiff of that one, I gotta go and wipe my azz now, that was a wet one." Upon which I hung up.

Signing up for the Do-Not-Call list is so much simpler.
But not nearly as satisfying I suppose... Remember, you DO need to hold that phone up to your own mouth and nose next time you wanna' use it. ![]()

thats why i got rid of my home phone.
another good one is to hold the phone up to the drumset and whack a symbal. hey, whats that ringing? will somebody please answer that phone! just set the phone down and let them talk, hang it up later if it is a female, tell her for every question she asks you, you get to ask her one. or, just ask her what she is wearing, sometimes you get one that is fun ![]() most of the time you dont ![]()

may have been simpler to just hang up instead of blasting fecal matter into your phones mouth piece but then again if you into that sort of thing...

How well does the DNC system work in the states? We have it here, but we still get calls all the time. It seems to me one of those well-intentioned pieces of legislation that are in reality more or less impossible to enforce. Though 2 companies were given large fines recently.
Last night some jackass called at 6:15pm, right in the middle of dinner, asking if we wanted to lower our mortgage payments. I asked him for his home # so I could call him while he was eating dinner, and how would he like that? After I hung up I realized he was probably in India and had no idea it was dinner time here.

Problem is that this does not work. Have been on the list for years and I keep getting calls all the time.
Govt thinks they can do health care? Hell, they cannot even run a do not call list!

I think you have to renew it every so often. I gotta' be honest, I haven't received any telephone marketing in quite a while, but we also have a non-listed number, are on the DNC list and make it a point to not give the number out to anyone just because we're buying something or whatever.
Ya' wanna' know how good gov't healthcare would be - ask a vet who goes to the VA! Yikes!

I like to take the shop blow gun and blow it into the reciever. A 160 psi air blast cannot be all that pleasant on the other end.

Way back when I used to keep a referee's whistle next to the phone (really loud, regulation). I stopped when my across-the-hall neighbors at the time complained it was too loud. Heh, heh, heh. Good times.

A friend has a response similar to yours. "Uhh, I'm having sex right now, give me your number, and I'll call you back when you are having sex."
