I found something interesting about this issue. There appears to be a federal law involved.

My wife has begun saying:

My Wife: Hello
TM: blah blah blah
My Wife: Can you hold on, there is someone at the door, probably some jerk-off salesman trying to sell me some crap.
She then puts the phone down and goes about her business till the people hang up.

My Wife: Hello
TM: blah blah blah
My Wife: Can you hang on a second, my boyfriend is at the door, and I am REALLY in the mood..
She then puts the phone down and goes about her business till the people hang up.

My Wife: Hello
TM: blah blah blah
My Wife: Can you hang on a second, I have to run to my neighbors house and call the Fire Dept because my oven is on fire, and some jerk-off is tying up my phone line.
She then puts the phone down and goes about her business till the people hang up.

Talk to them while doing your business in the bathroom is fun... you can even pretend to have massive diaherrea... *phfhfhfhfhthshthhhshthfsht* :Q:confused:

I've tried using EBaum's World's celebrity sound boards for insane laughs... I used the Ahnold one and me and my bro couldn't stop from laughing loud. :D

My usual response is i'll take your credit card if you come give me a BJ. Never had anyone hang up, most sit there and reason with me trying to still give me a credit card, but without the BJ. I guess it's because I show interest in the credit card? I dunno....never gotten a BJ out of it sadly. :(

This also works well when people want you to buy alcohol for them. :)
