Edit. I said bad things about products I don't enjoy. Not fair to the folks that produce them or work there.
My bad. Sorry.
But they are really bad beers!

Just had a sales, telemarketer call.
After saying no thanks several times and she would not give up. So I asked her what she was wearing, started breathing heavy. She just went on. So I did the "I'll have what she's having" thing from when Harry met Sally impersonation. Loud and passionately...
She hung up on me! The nerve, eh?

I've told 'em that I was the Crown Prince of Somalia, and if they would cash my check and send me the difference back in cash, I'd buy their 'product'.
I am on the National Do Not Call registry, have been since it was first came out in 1986.
Q: How many historians does it take to change a light bulb?
A: There is a great deal of debate on this issue. Up until the mid-20th century, the accepted answer was ‘one’: and this Whiggish narrative underpinned a number of works that celebrated electrification and the march of progress in light-bulb changing. Beginning in the 1960s, however, social historians increasingly rejected the ‘Great Man’ school and produced revisionist narratives that stressed the contributions of research assistants and custodial staff. This new consensus was challenged, in turn, by women’s historians, who criticized the social interpretation for marginalizing women, and who argued that light bulbs are actually changed by department secretaries. Since the 1980s, however, postmodernist scholars have deconstructed what they characterize as a repressive hegemonic discourse of light-bulb changing, with its implicit binary opposition between ‘light’ and ‘darkness,’ and its phallogocentric privileging of the bulb over the socket, which they see as colonialist, sexist, and racist. Finally, a new generation of neo-conservative historians have concluded that the light never needed changing in the first place, and have praised political leaders like Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher for bringing back the old bulb. Clearly, much additional research remains to be done.

This is serious, I did it. Once I had a pair of religious women knock on my door. I asked if they wanted to talk about religion, as I had my own beliefs. They admitted they did, so I told them. I was a worshipper of sex magic, and if they wanted to talk, then all they had to do was divest themselves and enter my front door. They then suddenly became smaller in the distance. You know, the youth of today have no sticking power at all.
You crack me up, Lud! So wanted to tell a similar story. Some nice folks who stopped by regularly. I invited 'em in and after hearing them out, (AGAIN!) I told them I worshiped a deity that was quite literally heretical to their beliefs. Not the place to go into detail but never heard from them, or any from their house of worship again. And I lived within walking distance to their regional, outreach head-quarters. When they did pass my place, they walked very fast and never looked over.
Hurt me lil feelins'! snicker.
