There's a big hubub in Baton Rouge right now over whether to allow the building of a new casino (the opposition, not surprisingly, is funded by the two casinos already in town), and we've been getting calls from both sides all week.
I just got one of those calls now, and they asked for my dad. Instead of telling the guy that my dad just wasn't home (which he isn't), I came up with an all new way to keep these people from calling me.
Paid calling guy: Hi, I'd like to talk to _____ about the campain to stop the building of the new ______ casino. Is he available to speak with me?
Me: He was killed in a horrible car accident three weeks ago.
Paid calling guy: Oh. My. God. I am so. So. Sorry. *click*
Me: Mwah ha ha.
ETA: (Days later) My tactic seems to have worked - they haven't called back. Up until I told the guy Dad was dead, they were calling 5 times a day.
