I've answered the phone around Halloween with "Hello thank you for calling The "last name here" Morgue where you kill we chill em! We are presently in the back stuffing a stiff please leave a message.

I answer the phone for my best friend "Hello Darling how are you today" In my best Zsa Zsa Gabor accent.

Mostly just say hello.

My voice mail greeting on my cell phone gets a lot of people to laugh though.

Hello you reached "my name here". I'm making a few changes in my life, leave a message if I don't get back to you, you're one of them.

I just remembered another one.

I have also said "You have reached the (insert last name here) family zoo, we are out back washing the giraffe right now so leave a message and we'll get back to you as soon as we're done!

Does anyone have a special way of answering the phone. Maybe for a loved one. When My hubby rings I sometimes say 'Buckingham Palace-queens Corgi kennel' or' Buckingham place Prince Edward's shoe cupboard' in a really posh voice or I say Dominoes pizza or mostly I just say plain hello...
Does anyone else say silly stuff.


The prank call thread made me think of this chit chat thread

"Herman's House of Puppets..."
"Joe's Pizza Shack..."

 

[Mousebaby]

Joe's pool hall, eight ball speaking, may I help you?

or

Grand Central Station, may I help you?

 

[Rael]

When I know who it is:

"Yes, commissioner?"

"State Department, what state?", or

"Fire Department, where's the fire?"

[Rael]

I used to have as an answering machine message:

"Hello?'


BEEP


Got a lot of strange messages "Hello? Are you there?" Some even thought that I actually answered the phone and they started talking.
