Do not fail to watch this video through to the end.
:-D
Damn. I've got permagrin. I can't stop smiling. I'm sitting here at the computer smiling with permagrin. If my wife comes into the room now, she's gonna think I'm looking at midget porn. Callous Jack already got me in trouble for that once this week....

My grandfather just asks the telemarketer to hold on and leaves the receiver on the table, then goes about his day or evening.
I created a variant. I ask them to hold on and then just watch TV. Every thirty seconds to a minute I shout "HOLD ON!" or "Be Right there!" or "I'm COMING!" When my other wireless' screen goes dark I know they finally wised up and hung up.

My favorite is to suddenly lapse into Spanish, then back into English. Sometimes they'll go for a translator, at which point you yell something like "WHAT, CAN'T YOU SPEAK ENGLISH? WHY CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND ME?"
The other variant is to answer the phone, and proceed to speak Nadsat for the duration of the conversation.
Another of my favorites is to ask what they're doing for dinner that night. For some reason, if you say it the right way, they hang up...
