cheeky fucker!
woken up one morning by the phone ringing. it was a cold-caller, trying to sell me double glazing or some such bollocks.
"hello" i says to him.
"my name is john, i represent reallyshitcompany" says he.
"yes, could you tell me what it is you want?" i asks.
"could i speak to the lady of the house, sir?" he asks.
now, i may sound a bit husky first thing in the morning, but i'm not that manly!
conversation was duly killed as i replied "i AM the lady of the house!" before hanging up on him.

Sounds like my mate's sister.
She's always being asked by cold-callers if her parents are home -- she's middle aged (She does live alone, for the pedants.). Well, that or door-to-door windowlickers ask if her husband is in.

The correct response is
Yes, I'll just get her

Then leave the fucker hanging

Why did he have to speak to the lady of the house? Is it only ladies who know about double-glazing?
I MUST KNOW

Are you a lady?

I get that, but in reverse,
so I am often mistaken for my own mother, or my wife.

Still, I suppose it will make minor identity fraud that little bit simpler.
