ROFL. OK, you had to top my story from the other day when I told someone asking for money from my old high school that “MCF” wasn’t home from work yet. Just for that, the next telemarketer that calls here is going to be speaking with Thanos of Titan….
Too funny. I usually ask if they can hold on a second and put the phone down while I play with the dogs. Barking and frolicking ensues for a bit. Then I pick up the phone and say loudly “Oh, I left the phone off the hook.” before hanging up.
I think next time I’ll ask them to Choose.
Oh that’s awesome. I always intend to play with them, but usually just hang up.
i actually do the complete oppsite, and have a full conversation with them.. i’m so lonely.
