Damned telephone surveyers!

[Ime]

My telemarketer calls had all but stopped recently after I joined the FTC's "Do Not Call" Registry.

Not "surveryers" keep calling me, "wanting my opinion". Now they are calling me really late at night!

If I remember FTC's rules, surveys aren't covered under the Do Not Call List. Bastards!

I'd report them anyway.

But I only have a cell, no house phone.

Actually the words I used were.

"It's 9:30pm here asshole, put me on your Do Not Call List. Don't call me again. Go survey someone who cares." Then I hung up the phone.

childish comment!!

When I get telemarketing calls from Indians I start talking to them in Urdu, my parents are from Pakistan and I know a little of the language. So, I start talking to them in their native language and they get all confused. Because they think that I think they are regular Americans since they changed their name to Ed or Al or whatever.

You must not have a phone or you live at home still.

Those frigg'n a-holes call all of the time weekend or week day, early evening or even late at night...they can all go to hell :| :| :|

Isn't it illegal to call after 9pm?

Oh well, ask them what they're wearing, then no matter the answer ask them to wait a sec and act like you're pulling it out. Then ask hot questions when they pause to hear an answer to one of their questions. Adlib from there until they hang up. Works pretty good at times.

Once I just stuck the phone up to the TV and listened on another phone.
