So you think your product is sooooooo special that I should drop everything to listen to your pitch? The problem is, there's 100,000 others just like you who also want to get some ear time.

How do you decide?

You don't - fuck 'em all. The hucksters have basically ruined it for everyone.

If I really need something, I should be able to find it, and I feel that living without it for the time being is a small price to pay for not being hasselled.

I have no qualms messing with telemarketers. If they get tired of the abuse, they'll quit, and eventually the cost of hiring people willing to take the abuse will go up and drive up telemarketing costs.
