i usually like to play around with them, somtimes ill act interested and then ill hit somthing and hold the phone away and say. BITCH DONT YOU COME IN HERE LOOKING LIKE THAT! oh sorry my wifes a dirty whore.. and ill start telling them stories and whatnot. i told one that i was being chased by the cops and shit, and one where i begged for money, because if i didnt get it was going to be murdered.. somtimes i tell them my dick is hard and start playing porno.. i make up different scenarios..
How do telemarketers get your number? You probably gave it to them. When asked by BestBuy or anybody else who has no business knowing my number, I say 555-555-5555, but I may also use a fake number that's less so fake 503-287-8673. Whoever has that number must be pissed.
Usually, i'll switch languages to spanish, and when they put a on a spanish person, i switch to french, and then german...by that time they usually hang up. once i had a person who stayed on the line switching back and forth for fifteen minutes..I finally told the goddamn idiot that i was screwing with him and hung up. it was fun...
Since I have my own line, my family thinks its best to give them my number when they fill anything out that results in those calls.. lucky me. So I just screen my calls or when I pick up I usually just hang up. I know it's their job but just annoying as all hell. Sorry. =\
