it's an anti-telemarketing script in the form of a telemarketing script! Genius!

I bought a tele-zapper from WalMart. Its badass. It was $35 and I dont get any calls anymore. When the phone would normally ring, somehow this zapper picks up a signal knowing that it a telemarket call and it ends the call without it ringing, but it still shows up on caller ID...we get atleast 10 calls during the duration of the day and we dont hear it ring once, I love it!

Indiana passed this great law allowing you to sign up for a "Do not call" list. It's illegal for telemarketers to call you if your on that list. Since signing up we have rarely ever gotten a call from a number we didn't recognize. It's great!

I usually act like i'm interested until they get to the money part.
Sometimes, i vent my daily frustrations on them. I hang up when i start laughing.
I actually like it when they call. They're fun to mess with. They dont really call that much anymore. I have no idea why. Hehe.

I usually just interrupt with no thanks within the first 5 seconds. Once my buddies and i were bored at their house, and he knew it was the telemarketer that always calls. after her 30 second rant, i told her i was VERY interested, please tell me more, in detail. It took her about 5 minutes talking and talking, while we were playing video games or something with her on speaker phone. Once we heard her say "... are you there?" i replied with oh yeah, im sorry i dont quite understand, can you repeat it? She went through the speach again, i came up with a different excuse every time, she read it off a total of 4 times. 20 minutes, just to get laughed at, and hung up on.
