I would answer no. I am not giving a stranger any information.

WHY ?

 

[BoonDocks36]

Me? I would gibberish out a mixture of VietNamese, German & the Eight words of Mexican I know, continuing with "Cum Bic VietMi"?

Regardless that recently in a thread, that I was told it was not properly grammatical ( ) but I forgive the (lack of) density of an airhead !!!!

When they Continued to continue... I would say that Eight of the voices in my head tell me I should continue making my ThermoNuclear Projectiles...

Cum Bic VietMi????

philipINtheBoonDocks ... I only answer to One Voice: the Holy Spirit, but I have alot of fun saying I hear Eight Voices, it annoys those who Annoy me. !!!!

Survey, someone cold calling or any other solicitor gets a "no thank you" and disconnect within 5 seconds. Because a lot if this crap is pre-recorded messages, despite being illegal in OR (or used to be), I also hang up, especially if I answer with "This is...." and am greeted with silence of more than 5 seconds. I never say Hello twice.

 

[Kid@Heart]

I just leave the phone on and set it down net to the television.

 

[ak56]

I don't do telephone surveys.

 

[Just Jim]

If I don't know the caller I don't answer the phone. It's what caller ID is for.

 

[IronMonster]

If I answer the phone and it is some kind of survey or sales call I typically just hang up.

 

[NoFlinch]

I would have to explain that between the flood, the hurricane, the earthquake, the tsunami, the sink hole, the volcano, the forest fire, and the wind gusts, I have lost the gun and all the BB's.

 

[AMT]

I don't answer the phone if caller ID shows a number that I don't recognize.

If I get tricked, or am feeling a little spry, I will answer. If that was one of the questions, I would answer honestly. No, I don't not own a gun. (I would assume that 'a' means singular and not go any further than that.)

 

[Just Jim]

If I got tricked into answering I would tell them to define "gun". This my rifle this is my gun, one is for shooting and one is for fun.

For clarification, define "is"............

 

[Just Jim]

For clarification, define "is"............

Cant, if I put isis together then I am a terrorist. Old Bill knew this was coming way back when.

 

[B5Ben]

First indication of sales or survey calls get a polite no thanks and hang up. Done. Don't even hang on the phone long enough to find out what it's for

 

[Yjacket]

As a matter of fact I do own some firearms. However if I were to get a phone call asking me if I owned a firearm I would answer 'No' for the simple reason I have no knowledge of who is really asking the question.

On the other hand I have been asked that question by a young lady at a doctors office and replied that yes. I own a grease gun, a calking gun, a paint spray gun, a soldering gun, and a hot air gun for activating heat shrink sheet and tube. The look on the young ladies face was priceless and the discussion ended right there.

 

[edison bulb]

I would answer no because I don't

 

[coop44]

"so sollee no speekee engrish" or " Charlie Wongs Chinese noodle factory and whorehouse, Chuck speaking" or "Praise the lord! Have you heard the good word today?"

I have also found that none of these turds speak French, gives me a chance to practice my limited skills, thank you Father Horvath Gerlac.

I really love caller I.D., gives me a chance to brighten up my day. Rather than get mad and shout and hang up, I can have some fun with these @sshats.

 

[bolus]

Tired of acting like I need to hide about it. "damn straight" is my answer from now on

 

[Martini_Up]

I no longer take surveys. Waste of my time and it always results in more unwanted calls.
