    I have found that the best thing to say is. Hello are you someone with good news or money for me ? This makes people think. They have no idea what to say. Of course they have no good news or money for you. So it makes annoying people that want to sell you some damn thing you don't want go away. Plus it's fun.

    Peace

    'Hello, [my name]' if it's a business call
    'Hello?' if its not.. if its a mate I'll randomly play with other languages like 'mushi-mushi?' 'ciao' 'ola' 'oui?' etc :D

    I rarely answer the phone. I tend to avoid it (damn Asperger's :)). But if necessary I simply say Hello.

    If I know them: I like to recite teh 7 dirty words tehn hang up - they don't even get to say a word.
    If I don't: I am unable to answer because I am kicking the telemarketers ass.

    Actualy - I have been working on picking a greeting for when I answer the phone (havent found one yet)
