"SEINFELD: (ANSWERING PHONE) Hello.

"(TELEMARKETER): Hi. Would you be interested in switching over to TMI long-distance service?

"SEINFELD: Oh, gee, I can't talk right now. Why don't you give me your home number and I'll call you later?

"(A LONG PAUSE) (TELEMARKETER): Well, I'm sorry. We're not allowed to do that.

"SEINFELD: I guess you don't want people calling you at home.

"(TELEMARKETER): No.

"SEINFELD: Well, now you know how I feel."

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
