So we get sales people calling us. my dad cant stand it so he makes fun of it... A sales calls the house and my dad answers in this baby voice he does...its hard to explain in type but imagine a baby voice... sales- hello? is this nick? "baby voice"- NO! but this is baby! my daddy not here! sales- well where is your dad? "baby"- i dont know! he took my mommy in the bedroom and told baby to go away! sals -pardon me? baby- Yeah! he locked the door and told me to go away! I hear strange noises in the bed sales- well you're a funny baby baby- thank you i get it all the time sales- when can I get a hold of your daddy? baby- I dont know! Theyre in there all the time! bye now I was dying laughing when he told me this. Again its probably not funny just reading it lol but hey.
when they call my uncle he puts on a little boy voice and asks if they want to speak to big keith or little keith. whichever one they want to speak with is out by the pond. or he puts on an old lady's voice and acts like he thinks they're locals and asks if "you one a' flozell's boys? you soun' like them"
EXCELLENT stories. I think they're absolutely hilarious. Unfortunately I usually listen and consider is they sound like something that may be useful to me. I only have a mobile so I don't get many. My dad is funny. The phone conversation is over in less than 5 seconds because he picks up and says hello and then when they start their talk he say goodbye and hangs up. It's classic!
I get my own kicks by wasting their time while they're trying to waste my money. Pretend to be ecstatically interested, ask as many questions as you can for about 5 minutes to an hour (whatever you fancy), then say "alright.. well let me go check my wallet", then hang up. =) Or, put on a shitty foreign accent and try to sound spanish or russian so they can't even understand you, lmao. You'll get a bunch of, what was that sir? What? Hello? It's perfect. Or, just be as rude as possible. They're good if you need to shed off some anger. They got a problem ask them why they're even calling in the first place and to remove your number followed by 14 obscenities of your choice.
I like to say something like "excuse me don't mean to cut you off but I'm just gonna take a shit while you talk to me, is that ok with you", then then you just keep cutting them off with "my god you ever eat too much taco bell" "wait is it supposed to be green, shit I see blood"
Tom Mabe is hilarious at tormenting telemarketers. He pulls out all the stops... I heard him on the radio the other day saying one recent routine was to agree to buy what the caller is selling- but only if the telemarketer speaks with his young child to "explain why Santa Claus isn't coming this year."
when they call me i just put up arguements about what theyre doing wrong. piss em off as much as possible
