Recent retorts have been 'No, he's dead', or to just put the phone next to the radio, and see how long they'll pay to listen to Radio 2.

When starting politely with my 'I'm sorry, I don't take any unsolicited calls', I was recently told to 'Hang on, and let me speak mister', I did lose it rather, and resorted to some good old fashioned expletives, before cutting her off.
