I’m rude to debt collectors who call me trying to collect debts from people who happen to once have had the same phone number as I once did. Like, I’m not who you’re trying to collect from, fuck off.
I’m also rude to generally any scam caller, they’re some of the few people I take great pleasure in telling off because I can get away with it. They’re scammy assholes, what’re they gonna do? Cry to the authorities? Knowing that they’re pieces of shit who scam people out of money? Good fucking luck.
Mormons, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and generally anyone who wants to convert me to their fucked up religion when they knock on my door. Why should I be civil when they bother me at my house on my time off to dictate what I should believe in? If I’m interested I’d go to them and not the other way around.
Their tactics are adapting: those motherfuckers started showing up at my house and they bring KIDS to ring the doorbell and give the elevator pitch. I can’t in good conscience tell a groomed/brainwashed child to eat my entire ass and I can’t even really be rude to the women standing behind them because they’ll just be like, “see how rude and awful nonbelievers are?”
If a JW approaches, just politely tell them you’re an apostate, and they’ll leave you alone.
Those people are genuinely brain washed into believing they are going save your life if they convert you.
If you tell them you’re an apostate, you’re telling them you’re ex JW, and you’ve been exiled, so they’ll turn around and refuse to talk to you. I say be polite because they’re just humans trying to “save your life”
The apostate thing won’t always work. It requires a couple of steps. The terminology you want to use is to say “I’m DF’d” or “I’m disfellowshipped”. That means they are not actually allowed to talk to you. They won’t even say okay, they just leave. Works 100% of the time IME.
Source: I’m disfellowshipped.
It sounds like it would work, im unshure if thats the safest or least safe way of convincing them to leave you alone. depends on if they think your a lost cause, a satan warshipper or re saveable
I’ve done that actually. It’s only been 2 months since that encounter but here’s hoping.
It’s always fun to answer the door to JW when you’re a goth. They’re already in a state of panic before you’ve opened your mouth.
One of my prouder moments when I was younger and thinner, was answering the door for some JW’s, while naked and handcuffed to my girlfriend.
They were working their way through our apartment complex, so we came up with a stupid plan.
I used to answer the door naked when I lived in a town where that was not a crime. Some of them try to lock eyes and pretend it’s not happening, some just run. Either way, I was amused.
You have to trespass well onto private property to get to my house now and it’s just to far a walk so I don’t get any JWs anymore.
I used to make sport of proselytizers, seeing how long I could string them along, but these days if someone hops my 12 foot fuck-off privacy fence and walks the 100 yards down my driveway past the no trespassing signs I will likely have already called the cops by the time they reach my door. So they would be met with hostility.
