So did anyone of you ever do any pranks on the phone of any kind? If so...please tell? :p
Victim: "Hello, I'm Jim from XYZ company..."
Me: "Hey Jimbo! How's it goin'?"
V: "Good, listen, have you heard..."
M: "Its good you called. Remember that time in Nicaragua?"
V: "um...you have me confused with..."
M: "Your such a kidder Jimbo. What you been up to?"
...misc. banter for about a minute. I invent some story and insist he was part of it. The only thing I remember is the ending:
M: "I haven't been the same after the accident. It burns whenever I pee."
V: "Oh god. <background> take these people off the list."
hang up.

Nice!
I once started screaming "IF I DON"T GET OFF THIS ILSAND WITHIN 48 HOURS IM GOING TO START HALLUCINATING!!!!:headbang:" to the telamarketer and he hung up. :p
That reminds me...
One time a telemarketer called me last summer.
It was right before graduation so some friends and I did some celebratory mescaline the night before.
The telemarketer called and I kept asking him to repeat himself, as I couldn't focus on anything for longer than four seconds. He was so pissed off that he swore at me and then hung up.

I've answered, and mid conversation started blasting death metal, faked an orgasm before (that one was fun...told the guy I thought he sounded hot, asked if he could breathe a little louder...)
I don't get many now...the last guy, I asked if he got paid by number of sales or how long they stayed on the line, and he said he just had to always be on the phone, so I told him I had some errands to run, but wasn't expecting any calls, so I could leave the phone off the hook and he could use that
oh, and the classic "I'm glad you called. I was just about to commit suicide. Unless, of course, you can give me three good reasons I should live..."

A telemarketer called my sister-in-law. My sister-in-law very kindly told her that she hadn't called at a good time, and could she get the telemarketers home phone number, so that she could call her back at a more convenient moment. The telemarketer hemmed and hawed, but my sister-in-law was so sincere, gentle, and persistent that the telemarketer gave her home number. Wouldn't we all love to have their home numbers?

I did once pretend to be a snotty Frenchman. I think it just confused the poor girl at the other end.
