one time i gave the phone to my oldest who was about 18 months or so at the time. He took the phone and ran with it, yammering on in baby talk. the guy on the phone was indian and got quite mad....what are you saying to me? how dare you talk like that....then he figured out it was a baby.....he hung up
I worked at a group home for retarded adults. Somefuckinghow, one of the retarded guys ended up on a list, and the assholes would call and ask for him. The man in question was deaf and mute. Each time the telemarketers would call, I'd tell them they were calling a group home for impaired individuals, that the man they wanted to speak to was incapable of a phone conversation, and to kindly take the number off their list. They always apologized, and said they'd remove the number. Naturally, they never did. So when they'd call, I'd just hand the phone to one of the other residents - one who loooooved to talk.

"How are ya. Can I ask ya something? Me and Julie were wondering; are you Catholic by any chance? You'll never guess why. I have a meeting. With Region ten. I liked the coffee I had this morning. It was strong like mud. What? I'm Danny. I blew The Beatles last night. I sucked their dicks. Quit that dirty talk. My daddy had a Thunderbird. Ya ever seen a Camaro? My daddy had one. Elvis was a big, fat slob who died on the toilet. He took drugs. My daddy whipped my ass for pulling a fire alarm..." On and on

I always wished I could've heard the other end of the conversation. After a short while, the calls DID stop.
