Which is why mine says "I'm in the bath, call again in ten minutes" (any potential burglers out there, I'm in the bath, honest ).

Ah, telemarketers, alas - my ultimate goal is to hunt everyone down and make themapologize for calling people back.

"Hello, please send me email instead. I never playback these stupid answering machine messages anyway. Besides, I am probably online right now"

Right do you always jump in the bath when the phone rings?

Marvelous question Dud


This is not an answering machine -- this is a telepathic thought-recording device. After the tone, think about your name, your reason for calling, and a number where I can reach you, and I'll think about returning your call.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hello, this is Ron. (pause) Hello? Hello!!? Nah, just kidding. This is an answering machine.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*In the background can be heard Gregorian Chant or some other church music*.
<In a soft voice> Good Day My child, you have reached (father or sister, then your first name) At Dial-a-Confession. At the tone if you will leave your name, number and short confession I will get back to you with your pennance. Thank you and may God go with you. <Beep>

How about Cameron's classic from Ferris Bueller's Day Off?
Quote:
Hello, this is Corally Brothers Funeral home. We deeply regret that we cannot take your call at this time, but if you leave your name and number, we will get back to you as soon as it is humanly possible.
I love that movie.

The wost telemarketers are the ones who ring you up and then put on a recorded message, so that you're being talked at by a tape. It ruins the effect of hanging up on them.
