ANSWERING SPAM CALLS

Reddit asked, “What’s a funny way to answer a spam call?” Some of the responses:
– “You’re caller 5 you’re live on the air.”
– “I just say random words, mostly to determine if I am talking to a person or some robot: rutabaga. tobasco. aviation. diet soda. cheez whiz. spackle…”
– “Are you my Uber driver?”
– “I wait five seconds to answer every question, makes it sound like there’s a time lag, especially when you answer the previously question as they are asking their next question.”
– “An Indian co-worker taught me how to say something in Hindi that basically means ‘you have sex with your sister.’ So I use that one now.”
– “In a bad foreign accent I say, ‘Hello this is Microsoft tech support.'”
– “I tell them to hang on just a second then I put the phone down. Sometimes I lead them on like I’m interested then keep putting it down. Had one on for almost 30 minutes.”
– “I answered a spam call saying ‘rerrroooow?’ like Scooby Doo. It turned out to be my eye doctor telling me my glasses were ready to be picked up.”
– “I had a caller ask to speak to the person who makes the decisions in the household. I put the phone on speaker and handed it to my 4 year-old daughter. I heard him say to someone in the background, ‘What is wong with these people!?!’ and he hung up.”
