OK I remember when I was a kid we did car washes, boy scout stuff, fund raisers for school etc. A lot of which seemed legit.

But DAMN these days if I am not getting called on the phone or my door bell ringing frantically from some over zellus (no pun intended) College kid or hell these days ANYONE freeking selling or wanting me to sign some sort of crap that will IMPROVE my life. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Just had some kid walk in my garage tonight while I am working busily on the bike and just start yacking my ear off like he is the next door neighbor.

Oh nice bike,, blaa blaa just thought I would introduce myself to the neigborhood so no one hated me. And I am thinking ... why you knew here?? [img]graemlins/sure.gif[/img]

So this goes on for like 20 mins while I ignor him and keep working on the bike. I would have kicked him out but I just figured he was someones kid in the neighborhood interested in bikes and saw me riding it while test riding up an down the block. So we get into this all friendly conversation and then he says .. ya, I am trying to go to Europe. Ya, need to sell some magazines to help earn my way there.

OK so this is for school or college? No, I just gradutated and we are taking a group trip there. UMMMMMMMMMM, OK. And these magazines are???

Oh glad you asked they are ONLY 60 cents a an issue and I earn lots of points blaa blaa blaa so if you just subscribe to 1 of them it helps tons blaa blaa blaa.

This goes on for awhile and I stop him and ask... so 60 cents an issue. and WHAT do you get out of it? I mean at a discounted rate you have to make something to pay for the trip. Oh we barely make anything. See here if you get this one for 3 yrs it is only $59.00 and blaa blaaa

WTF WHO ARE YOU AND WHY ARE YOU IN MY GARAGE

Oh I am from Montana and we go around and sell these from door to door to help...

OK well if you made it here I am sure ytou can make it back. And I was nice enough to do this shit once and guess WHAT? I NEVER GOT MY FU*KIN MAGAINZES. BYEEEEEEEEEEEE

I swear I am gonna SHOOT the next Freekin kid who rings my door bell or walks in my house again. Living in our neighborhood with the Morman church and a few schools close by I prolly have lost a good year off my life convinicing some idiot who rang the door bell and woke me up that I dont wanna talk about god, dont need to buy and magazines, tapes, cds, cars, coupons for pizzas, papers. NOT A DAMN THING!!!

Well ok except those girl scout cookies. But you think we have a little girl in the neigborhood. HELL NO.

Off to load Glock (PS ALL IN FUN .. I wouldnt really shoot anyone.. though it is temping)
CYA

it's zealous , not zellus. [img]mad.gif[/img]

And thank god any of those people stay away from the uni campus. They know there's nothing to get here, or that they won't get it.

we ALWAYS get the college kids around here tryin to sell the newspaper, so they can "get an scholarship" andthey talk for like 10min about how bad they need it, maybe instead of being annoying as hell they should go out n get a job, maybe then they wont have to worry about a scholarship

you never did the "seem interested and then give them a big frontal no" spiel? [img]redface.gif[/img]
It's sort of mean, but you need to have done it once.

Did have a roommate once who hated when the Jahovas woudl come buy so one day when they knocked on the door and asked if they could talk to him about God he invited them in [img]eek.gif[/img] and then he said Ok this is how it will work. We will talk for a few minutes about Satin and then you can talk about God. If I have to listen to you , you have to listen to me first.

They looked weird at him, thanked him and left.

I was laffin so hard bout wet the couch [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

Silly jehova's :|
I really hate the way each 'effective' religion needs to have propagation as one of it's prime values [img]mad.gif[/img]

Your buddy was right on the money c-ya!
I had some people all interested in selling shit come to my house *which is the only people we've EVER had come by... much to my dismay... i love telemarketers, but wish door to door people would come*....
anyways, i acted all interested, was like "oh yea, i love that magazine!" and all this jazz, then i simply said.. "oh, i dont do the buying around here, sorry" and walked back inside without another word [img]wink.gif[/img]

Also, funny little extra story.. my coach used to live like 3 houses down from International Sub Shop or whatever it is... well, his roommmate would call them up, and order out. Have it delivered to their house.
If the delivery boy drove their car to their house (which was 3 houses away) his roommmate wouldn't give the kid any tip at all. If the kid walked there, he'd give them a tip.
He would ask them if they drove, then go check the driveway to make sure. hahaha, he was a riot!
