Hullo! So, almost everybody gets those calls from businesses and junk where they ask for you parents so they can try to sell em' stuff right? Well, when you parents aren't available, what do you say? That's what we want to know!
Here you can post things you can say to these phone calls when the person they are trying to reach is not available. They can be things that you have actually replied with, or just funny ideas for the future. Please give play by play descriptions of the phone call. However, refrain from using people's real names, for privacy of course. Use fake names please.

Lol xD Now I wish I had those advertising callers instead of those auto-played reorded robots. xD
Ring Ring~ Caller: This is the Mercedes Benz company. May I speak to Mrs. and Mr. Moony? Me: No. Caller: Are they unavailble? Me: Maybe. Caller: Alright, then. Uh, please let them know that I've called and hopefully a reply back. Me: -hangs up with a xD face- Kekeke~ they lost to BMW. xD We bought a car, and we were thinking of Benz, but naaah. It's been happening more than once so.

YesI know this isn't a telemarketer thing, but I have to tell someone about this hilarious experience! x3 This actually happened once xD You know those stupid phone calls when this guy calls and keeps asking for someone, and it's always someone who's not there? Well, every once in a blue moon, one of the people the guy asks for is there. This is one of those times. -ring a ding dong ding-
Me: 'Yello?
Man: Uh, hi. Is Janice there?
Me: Nope, sorry. I think you've got the wrong number.
Man: In that case, is Darwin there?
Me: No. Sorry, I think you've got the wrong--
Man: -snicker- Is Michael there?
Me: ...No...
-a thousand names and 'no's' later-
Man: -snickerfit- Is Steve there?
Me: Actually, yes, he is. He's my dad. -hands phone to dad-
Dad: -deep ticked-off voice- Hello?
Man: OH SHI-- -hangs up- If that wasn't really funny, you had to be there.
