Do You Answer The Door? |
It's 6 O'clock at night. You have just finished dinner and are trying to relax and spend some time with your family. All of a sudden there is a knock on the door. You peek out and see two guys in suits riding bikes. You already know.... damn, it those Jehova's Witness'. Do you open the door and talk with them nicely, do you curse them? They can see the light on and hear noise so they know someone is home, but do you try and be very quiet and slowly walk away giggling. Do you feel guilty not opening the door? I brought this up because I live in an apartment complex were soliciting is not allowed. And I overheard a neighbor of mine open his door shouting curse words and telling them "no soliciting." I felt bad for the kids, and at least gave them a chance to speak, I told them "no thank you" and I already have a religion I believe in." What do you do? there are no laws here in the uk to stop this happening. if someone knocks at the door,we have to answer it because our path to the door,goes right past the living room. i had 2 of these people at the door not long ago,and after asking them to get off my property nicely,3 times,they still didnt shift.it was then that i resorted to the use of bad language and the very real threat to remove them by force.when my wife told them i wasnt joking,they left without further ado.i wouldnt give them the time of day,nor would i for any religious nutcase. no... i wont answer my door... Once, three Jehovah's Witnesses came to the door when my mom and my brother (who was five at the time) were at home. My mom let them into the living room, then called my brother in and said that some nice men wanted to talk to him. He came in and spent the next five minutes talking nonstop (I mean it) about hippos, or whatever animal he was obsessing over at the time. My mom was listening from her room, and after five minutes of chatter, she heard the door slam shut. We never saw them again. The moral? It's good to have a little brother who never shuts up. This is why, eight years later, I've trained him to do the same thing when religious zealots come to the door. Crack the door open, stick your head out, get a wild look on your face and say "OH MY GOD THEY SENT YOU DIDN'T THEY? I TOLD THEM I'D GET THEM THE MONEY! PLEASE YOU HAVE TO BELIVE ME!" Start sobbing and grab their shoulders and make a fool out of yourself. Yell at an imaginary person in the back of the house to get your guns and load up to fight. Works even better if you rub baby powder under your nose to make the look authentic. I tell them I'm busy. They usually catch me outside during the day. I would never open the door to a stranger! Never! Day or night. Too dangerous. The guys on bikes . I have learned a trick. Invite them to your church. They have to go to your church first though. Most of the time they will back off. They are not supposed to go to other churches. They know this. It has worked for me. if that dont work tell them you would be happy to talk to them and your were about to take a shower. Tell them they can join you because your tub is huge. JK. I thought id make you laugh. |
