in my opinion no one here has said half of that stuff they did a net search for mean things to say to get points. Ive done telemarketing for 3 years and the thing on this list that gets done is hanging up...thats pretty much it. people arent ballsy like they say cause remember telemarketers have all the info for location of house or can legally get them.

I don't give them the time of day. Once I know that they are a telemarketer, I tell them immediately that I'm not interested and to put me on their do not call list (even though I am registered some still slip thru) and then hang up.
As far as why most people DON'T like telemarketers is because if we want to buy something, we will go to the store to buy it. We do not want our privacy invaded with someone calling our homes trying to sell us something. And for the most part, telemarketers are usually scamming you in some shape or form. I have yet to hear a "good deal" by a telemarketer. I think they should all be banned.

From an episode of Seinfeld:
Jerry(to telemarketer): I can’t talk right now. Why don’t you give me your home number, and I’ll call you back later?
Telemarketer: I’m afraid we can’t do that.
Jerry: Oh, I guess you don’t want people calling you and bugging you at home.
Telemarketer: Right.
Jerry: Well now you know how I feel! [hangs up]
Says it all really!

If you're wanting to prank one, here are some ideas:
Talk to them with song lyrics
Play dumb in everything. Literally.
Speak in a fake language
Make fart noises towards them
Attempt a creepy phone call
Repeat their words

I tried to sell them a truck I had for sale. Told them all about it. Didn't give them time to talk for a good 7-8 minutes. When I was done they were silent or a second then just hung up.

We souldnt do things to telemarketers, they just doin their jobs...anyway, its funny to mess with them. I always make it sound like im going to get their product, but then when they start talking about payments, I say whoa, i didnt know i had to pay for it, i thought you were going to pay me to try your product. But thats after i ask a 1000 questions.....LOL

accepted everything they had to offer and then hung up before order was finalized...they called right back and my friend answered "Jake's Floral, how can I help you." The telemarketer was confused and pissed, it was a hoot.
