one time they started explaining what they were selling and i just said " wait a minute do you want to talk about onion rings and pizza" and then i just stared saying onion rings and pizza non stop for like a minute and then i asked the lady is that what you want to talk about? and she said "yes onion rings and pizza"(in a sarcastic voice) and she hung up |
Lmao, am so gonna try it. Though I feel sorry for them with all the people messing with them.
If it's automatic I instantly hang-up, rarely I stay on the phone to hear what it's about, if it's not robotic I just usually say" Sorry, no" (when they ask if I'm interested in answering). |

| Sometimes I give them a chance to tell me why they're calling and then I'll tell them I'm not interested, but I usually just hang up the phone straight away. |
