I always answer the phone. If it's a telemarketer, I hang up on 'em or give 'em a blast of shit. It's as simple as that.

What you do, is you ask the telemarketer to marry you. They freak out and hang up. evil: (My cousin's done it)

Well I answered the phone one time. Of course I was off from school and this bitch from another school ask's if this is Kyle Smith and I was like yeah. So right then and there she starts bitching at my for telling AJ how my dad was gay and shit like that. She is like I thought better of you young man I want you to come right back to school and some other crap like that. I was like I don't go to that school and she asked which school I went to which I told her. She was like I am sorry sir but I must have got the wrong number please forget everything I told you. Does it look like I will ever forget a person calling my dad gay with out checking who it is.

Caller ID is the best. If I want to take the call, I do. I always answer telemarketers. If you dont answer, they just call back later. I either answer and let them start their pitch and hang up, or I just put the phone down in front of my speaker while running through clip after clip of ammo. You can also ask for their home number so you can call back when it is more convenient for you to talk. I have also let my 2 year old talk to them before.

Hell, sometimes I won't even answer the phone if one of my friends call. If I don't feel like talking to someone, why should I? If it's important they'll call my cell. My dad however, will keep calling until someone answers. Then it's time to turn the ringers off, especially if you're hung over.
