Yeah... Pretty badly.

Hitch along with Mae on the way to pick up Hoosier, and bring the pecan pie and cool whip. I'll set the table ;)


Rant: So this kid comes and knocks on my door (we're having a provincial election next week), and I'd just washed my make-up off. He says "Hello, are your parents home?":mmph: I told him no.

Just last week, a charity canvasser called me up and said she was looking for "the adult of the house." I replied "Sorry, no, I'm the eight-year old and my mommy isn't home yet." I felt like a grumpy old man, but it was worth it.

(It must run in the family, for when my dad was 28 and had bought his own house, a salesman came to the door and asked if his parents were home lol)

Clearly he is blind so make sure you don't vote for him. :p

In a not too proud moment of my life I worked as a telemarketer (over 20 years ago). One evening I thought I made a sale but then the verifier came and crossed it out because it turned out that I was talking to an eleven-year-old kid who had a deep voice. This kid sounded like he was thirty!

I wonder lol Right now, the urge was to wave my tenancy agreement in his face and yell "MY PLACE!!"

I would have gladly wished for that after I turned 19 and ordered a screwdriver at a restaurant up north, and the snotty waitress said to me "Oh, you just became of age. You're probably drinking all the time now." :eusa_doh:

My wife gets people coming to the door all the time. If she makes a mistake and they ask for the owner she does a nice "ownah not home." They usually don't want to push it any further. :p

Maybe they fed him hormones for breakfast for that purpose lol

Brilliant! :D I don't get any other door callers other than in an election 'cause I live in a triplex, but if I'm keeping that one in mind if I ever own my own house.

My brother and I once staged a drunken domestic for a telemarketer. They shrieked and hung up. Terrible people we are...
 
I'm slightly fearful of asking lol My brother usually tells them he is an Anti-Cosmic Satanist.

Close. He opened the door and the guy went into his talk. He looked at the guy with a wierd look and said: "We don't believe in God! We believe in Satan!" Then he slammed the door on the guys. You should have seen them going back up the walkway---looking back and wondering.......:p

Excellent response to anyone not welcome to the door, If you come in, I do have five dogs, one is a Doberman that really dislikes strangers and does bite, now, as you were asking?......
