a) seinfeld is awesome, i wouldnt be yelling about how you dont watch it, people are going to think badly of you for liking anime but not seinfeld
b) while saying other things are funny, saying "please take me off your list, and don't call again" is the most effective thing to say to telemarketers, you could, in theory, sue them if they call you again
c) you should get on the do not call list, it works
5:gen> man
5:gen> i didn't know shade's child fucked bluednady
Quicker way around it.. if you say hello and there's a pause, possibly a click, that means their call-o-matic has detected your voice, and has confirmed a live person is on the line. Then, you're automatically connected to a representative.
If you don't hear someone immediately respond once you say "hello" - just hang up, you'll never be connected to representative.

I've seen a couple of episodes-the one with the fat guy who wanted the Frogger machine, and another that had something to do with kidney stones, and a lot of screaming.
That's about it.

My Mum normally asks for the caller's name, name of company, comany address and how they got hold of our number (We're not EX Directory, but we are on the "do not call us" list). Often they just hang up.

Yea, what Dock said. Sometimes, when I'm bored, I start up a conversation just for kicks. Usually about something totally random, like about a frog I saw yesterday or something. They never call back though so it works for me.

You do realize that with phone calls comes the magical power to hang up the phone, right?
Survey> Hello, I was wondering if I...
Me> Not interested *hang up*
Doesn't get much simpler than that.
Why bother coming up with some elaborate scheme or excuse?
Just hang up. Rude? Certainly! Effective? Most definitely!

Lol!
I dont have phone at my home and i never received a "survey" call in my cell phone so... but i think it can be pretty annoying to have someone interrupting you while you are doing something just to make you waste some time awsering a bunch of stupid questions...
