I hate it when I get someone with a thick Indian accent cold calling me. I immediately start talking to them in a convoluted way to p*ss them off.

"Is dat de owner of de buzinezz??"

""Hmmm. Well, that is a tricky line of questioning. Do any of us in the truest sense really own anything? What do you think the ancient philosophers would have thought about that?"

and so on....
