I need a better script for those "energy advisers' that keep calling the landline.

Fuck off! Fuck off! Fuck off! isn't how I want to interact - I'd far sooner have some kind of "it's not convenient right now, can you call back in a couple of days" and by then have worked out some series of questions that will get them really involved.
I'd aim to waste at least 30 minutes of their time...

@OneInterestingFact @tully What’s stopping you from saying exactly that? Make a callback appointment even, their victim botherance system should have that option. Then spend the first fifteen minutes playing how you forgot what the call is about and that you asked to be called back.

@tully @kevinrns I used to answer spam calls at work with “good, I’m glad you called. There’s a lot more blood than we anticipated. Did you get the bearer bonds?”

@revndm @tully @kevinrns If I'd have done that while at various mega-bank trading desks the tapes might have been pulled and I might have been in VerySeriousPoo --- but maybe it would have been worth it!

@DamonHD @tully @kevinrns I find in the organ harvesting business that it’s always worth it to have extra help.

@revndm @tully @kevinrns Investment banking and organ harvesting aren't usually mentioned together out loud... Not in my social circles anyhow...

Oh no, this combo might summon THE BEN @TheBreadmonkey

He slept with her but no sex.

She sent him a message when he got back asking for help with her rent so he ghosted her.

He has a laissez-faire attitude to survival.

@tully

I wonder if we can also ask those bots to help us with some Python coding issue?

Might as well burn those tokens on something potentially useful.
