I just don't even bother answering the phone during telemarketer prime-time hours coz I'm just sick of it. All my important contacts are on my mobile so the home phone ringing usually means some parasitic infection on the other end. I don't want that.
What is arguably even more annoying is when the english illiterate on the other end starts by saying "sir I'm not calling to sell anything...". That's my queue to (a) hang up, (b) dust off the F word and other various forms of vulgar language, or (c) make some smartass comments like "can I grab your number so I can call to sell you a phone you already have just as you're sitting down to dinner with your family after a hard day of peeing people off".
