Usually I don't answer. If it's actually someone I know but they got a new number not in my contacts, they should know to text me first.

In some cases though, if the spam calls start to get relentless, I'll answer as though I'm a business...

"Thank you for calling Ding Dong Double Dildos & Dirty Devices, how would you like to fuck yourself today?"

They usually can't think of anything to say and just hang up, and more often than not they'll remove the number from the calling list. πŸ˜‚πŸ€£

Haha, you might want to practice that one for a short while first, it's a bit of a tongue twister.

Congratulations on getting me (and other lemmings all over the world) to say that phrase out loud.
