And tried to sell me an intercessionary prayer slot. I said I needed a limb regrown and the fucker hung up on me. Total scam.

A couple of times, when they've asked to speak to "so-and-so" (me) I've said "He's dead. Why can't you people just leave us alone?!!!" I make some sobbing / bawling sounds -- maybe a slight wimper. It really throws them off -- at least for a second or two.
