If it walks like a duck, sounds like a duck, smells like a duck, and behaves like a duck, in my experience there is a fairly good chance that it is a duck. Same goes for trolls, but what do I know, Im just an idiot. Think thats reportable to the mods come to think of it, but ****ing asshole is better

One store that I avoid at all costs is Radio Shack. They want your name, address, phone number, inside leg and first born just to buy a battery in there!!

I cannot believe that SO many people happily oblige!

For some stuff theres not a lot of other choice. To be fair they have never sent me any junk mail or cold called me, and you can always just give them a made up name...or better still give them the name of a neighbour you dont like

I often get asked for phone number/post code in shops, I just put on my best British accent and say "Sorry, I'm new here, I don't know it yet".

LOL good one - I'll remember that, and I have just the candidate

What bothers me though is most people have no idea just how valuable that information is! They may not send you junk, but you can sure as heck bet they're selling it on to someone else. Information is huge business in Canada.

I usually just say "No - you don't need that", or "How much are you going to pay me for it?" I get some really funny looks.....lol
