Phone: Ring Ring!
Me: Hello?
Telemarketer: May I please speak with Mr Mitchell Jackson?
Me: No, he's not here, you can't speak with him.
Telemarketer: Is there someone else available for me to talk to?
Me: Well, I answered, so I guess I'm available.
Telemarketer: (silence)

Telemarketer off the phone in five minutes.
