Do you hate telemarketers? I do. But solicitors are even worse, because you can't just hang up on them.

Okay. Maybe I'm paranoid but in this day and age of crafty criminals I'm reluctant to open the door for anyone who isn't a friend, relative, guy in a cop uniform, or someone with their leg chopped off with a wolf chasing him. Why? Because I'd rather make some solicitor think I'm an asshole than risk a home invasion.

Seriously. We have the fucking postal service - just send me a fucking letter explaining what you want me to donate to. We have fucking telephones and e-mail as well. I mean, I'll probably just delete your email or ignore your phone calls, but I won't hate you as much as when you knock at my door.

What's worse are the solicitors who come to your door at unreasonable hours - e.g. when it's getting dark. I generally don't open the door to begin with, but when it's dark I just say to myself "get the fuck out dude."

Get a real job you berks... NOBODY likes a solicitor. If I considered it worth my time to donate to X organization, I would've done it already (using that oh-so convenient thing called the "internet.")

What is this "internet" you speak of.
On topic, I've gotten like 6 visits from some "macaroni factory" in the last 2 days.

Excellent use of "Berk" in your rant, however, I must question your decision of using it over "you berkshire".

I get a lot of telemarketers over the phone, and even though I answer with "hello" once I realise who has just called my usual reply is "I no speaka the English."

Despite living in a neighborhood that redefines the meaning of the term "Middle Class" I seldom see these people.

Even though once my brother sent Mormons to my neighbor, that was funny. Especially 'cuz we didn't get caught.

The last time we had someone knock on our door asking for something it was the red cross, and the time before that was the red cross the year before and the time before that was the red cross the year before that...

I find, more often than not, neither do the telemarketers.

Internet and telecom provider here bothered me twice in two weeks ... along with my whole building. They were hitting each floor in teams. Efficient little fuckers.

I haven't ever experienced a single telemarketer nor door to door salesmen, not even Jehovas witnesses.

I'm just lucky, I guess?

I hate it the most when church members try to solicitate about their church. Get this we have a sign on our front door that says not to solicitate.

I'm building a house in a new development phase. I'm fucked. They'll be on me like flies on shit. We're going to hang a "no solicitors" sign on the door and, hopefully, it'll hold them off for a few hours.
