Looks like the government decided to actually do something for us for a change.
Whether or not this works remains to be seen, but at least it's a start.

But you will STILL get the damn "Hi, I'm from MCI..." calls.

<center>Boy the way Glen Miller played,
songs that made the hit parade,
guys like us we had it made,
those were the days,
and you know where you were then,
girls were girls and men were men,
mister we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again,
didn't need no welfare states
everybody pulled his weight,
gee our old Lasalle ran great,
those were the days!</center>

Yeah, but now apparantly they can be fined and fined heavily if they ignore it.
That I like!

I have fun with them. Last sales call I got I kept the little a-hole on the phone for half an hour just tooling on him. WTF am I going to do with my Friday evenings now?

I had a list of things you could say to telemarketers to really fuck with their day, but I lost it. Damn my keyboard.
One of them was act like you've known them for years and ask how the family is doing and stuff like that. Or ask them what they're wearing in a really seductive tone. Or ask them if they'll be your friend. Usually that's enough to make them hang up and regret ever calling you.
I'm not quite there yet
Believe the Hype, Bitch!!!!

Subliminal message: MY CROTCH SHALL EAT YOU. Damnit no wonder I can't get any dick.
The status probably doesn't help either. Damn you to hell Alkey! :moon:
