I had an answerphone message that went...
"Hello? Hello? Who is it? Speak up, I can't hear you! What do you want? Speak up, for goodness sake...."
I loved it.
Callers, less so.

I think you're sweet to do the Christmas thing.

A now long passed away uncle used to hate answering the phone and only ever did so under duress. When he had to , he always answer with the same message ''Hello, Maidstone Police'' - It put off the cold callers anyway.

If it was family, the always replied ''Good morning inspector''

user1467976192 · 22/12/2016 09:06

well it will cheer up the cold callers... we normally answer with you'll have to speak up I am wearing a towel (simpsons reference)

I might just get away with it - think I will

LunaLoveg00d · 22/12/2016 09:17

I'd put the phone down on someone who answered like that, and call their doctor as they'd quite obviously lost their marbles.

Are you 12?

dollydaydream114 · 22/12/2016 09:17

Am I the only person who thinks Elf is shit? Blush

It's not that I don't like Christmas - I love it! I just don't get why Elf is suddenly seen as the pinnacle of festive cinema.

Evilstepmum01 · 22/12/2016 09:23

YANBU!

the best way to spread christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear!

I love Elf... it's so silly, really makes me laugh and remember how much fun Christmas used to be when it wasn't the stress fest it is now.

APlaceOnTheCouch · 22/12/2016 09:45

dollydaydream you are not alone. I hate Elf much prefer Arthur Christmas or It's A Wonderful Life

Creatureofthenight · 22/12/2016 09:53

I don't really like Elf either. Give me The Muppet Christmas Carol any day!

lozzylizzy · 22/12/2016 09:54

My sister used to get in serious trouble for answering the landline with 'Hello, Sexline'. I think it was worth it for her though.

VanillaSugarAndChristmasSpice · 22/12/2016 15:21

How can you not like Elf??????

Do you not like chocolate either?

Congratulations! !!! YOU DID IT!!The World's Best cup of coffee! Well done!

I don't really like Will Ferrel tbh.
I love chocolate!

Anyone who thinks you're being U is a cotton headed ninnymuggins, OP.

APlaceOnTheCouch · 22/12/2016 15:43

Yeah, another one who fails to see the appeal of Will Ferrel - I don't really believe in his innocence and that's central to the film being a success.
I do like chocolate . . .and I do like when they sing at the end.

Temporaryname137 · 22/12/2016 15:47

I'd love to answer the phone at work by saying, "what fresh hell is this?"
