Too much work. I always ask them if they can hold on a sec because somebodys at the door. Then I just set the phone down.. and walk away. I think the current record is like 35 min that some moron sat and waited. If he does, I say "O.K, Thanks" then hang up.

Ring Ring. Hello. pause, "Can I speak to Mr. or Mrs (fill in the blank)" Just sternly say NO and then listen to the awkward silence then hang up.
Right in the middle of typing this reply one of those a$$wholes called and kicked me off my cheap a$$ dial-up connection. I decided to chew here a$$ and the foreign B couldn't even understand what I yelling at her about.

I ask them for their home phone # so I can call them during their dinner hour. Got that from a Sienfeld episode. Works great!

I got rid of my land line and phone at my house and only use a cell phone. I never get any telemarketing calls.
Best thing I ever did was to make the home land line go away.

parker - - One of my bros and I formed an LLC to redo a house. I put my cell number on the LLC forms and now I get calls wanting to handle my credit card receiveables, do my stationary and various other services. If the dipshiats had bothered to read the LLC from they'd see I'm not in the retail business. I didn't figure on that.

Oh god all the stuff I've pulled with the Telemarketers....
Here's a good idea that I've busted out a few times lately...
When you get a telemarketer calling, tell them to hold up for just a minute. Tell them you need to get "a pencil and pen" to write down their info...
Really though, go get onto your internet and go to the ebaumsworld.com soundboards....
Then, click all the stuff you wanna say on the soundboards, and you immediately sound like Borat or Napoleon Dynamite or any of the dozens of people on the soundboards...
It works best with a speakerphone too, that way you don't have to keep moving the phone from your ear down to the speaker...
