“I’ve never been polled, but I’ve polled a few women in my day.”

Poled a few, but never polled them.

Oh! But you have to be complete in your response! Be able to recite all of the seven gods of Hindu they are blaspheming.

Ganesh
Shiva
Kali
Durga
Lakshmi
Vishna
Krishna

One of those ought to catch him!

For some odd reason they dont want to talk to me after I tell them that its going to cost them $5.00/min with a $50.00 minimum and that I will need a valid credit card number to proceed.

You have to be subtle. If you have time, waste THEIR time! Drag them through all the bullshit questions you want to ask and then wait for them to transfer you to the supervisor and then hit him with the killer (I use a Mac).

Wasting their time means some old crotchety effer don’t lose a bundle on their crap. Take the time. Waste theirs.

I actually had one start crying when I told him that about Vishnu. Tried to convince me he wasn’t a crook. But I’ll keep your list for future reference. I try to keep them talking for at least 15-20 mins. Most of them hang on for that.

Not only that but I have found once you contact your representative about anything you’re bombarded with party solicitations for money.

Oooh! I like polls.

Usually, I'm a black lesbian 50-something, who has a government job, makes in excess of 100K a year, and votes hardcore Conservative, every time.

"Figure out THAT Demographic", sez me.

On the automated phone polls, I enjoy telling them I’m a black female Democrat for Trump.

Once I even got the chance to add “Lesbian”.

I’ve gotten dozens of these calls, and I like to f@ck with them. They usually say they are from “Windows” or “Microsoft” something or other and they have said they have detected that my computer is infected somehow.

I used to get those calls. I'd let them go through the whole thing like "We determined through your Event Viewer in Windows that you have multiple errors." I would say " Wow, How can I see this ?" They would step me through the process of viewing the event viewer. I'd tell them that it was amazing they could get all that info from the Windows Event viewer on my PC, especially since I am running Linux. The next sound I hear is a click.

Knew gal with caller job. Calling is very inhumane. Repeating the same zombie lines for weeks. Eventually it destroys you.

I live in a swing state so I get poll calls all the time. So far I just hang up. Wonder if I should actually answer one (and yes, of course I’m voting for Trump).
