WARNING!!! This is a joke for people who live alone and has very loose friends.
Ok so have your own normal answering machine message then say 'lease leave a message after the swear word', don't end it and go on your computer and search for BEEP! soundtrack. find a good one then after the prevoius steps you play it multiple times ( at least every 5 secs, maybe sooner. Then 30 secs later, have a different soundtrack on another tab play. It has to play the words ' Mailbox Full' like the phone does. Then, finish the recording. Mine says the words 'Yo yo yo what up my peeps! Leave your message after the swear word. BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP (and just when they start to talk again) BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP BEEP Mailbox Full (Real) Beep'
That would piss people off wouldn't it ?

Remember, this isn't the only way to do this so post your own ideas!!

I would use my own voice as the voice over and say please leave the message after the beap and make the beap about an hour long.

I would act like it's not the right number with something like "Hello. Domino's pizza, may I take your order?"

I've got another. If you know another language, have the answering machine in that language, but don't mention your name.

Just don't say anything for about 30 seconds into the message. Or give them the wrong name, that ones always fun.

But I like the one I have on my phone now.

I tlak really quiet and say, "Hey, sorry I can't answer my phone right now, but I just found waldo, and I'm trying catch him."

I like faking as though I have no idea what's going on.

"Okay, um... gotta record a voicemail message... HEY! MOM! HOW DO I RECORD- WHAT?! OKAY, WHICH BUTTON!? THE GREEN ONE?! IALREADY DID, HOW DO I KNOW IT'S RECORDING?! THE RED LIGHT?! THERE ARE TWO- Oh, wait, that's a ladybug. Okay, so I'll just pick him up and drop him outside..." *long silence* "Okay, is the microphone working? Whatever, I'll just go on. Hi, you've reach-"

"Hello, you have reached my answering machine. I cannot get to the phone at the moment as I am avoiding someone. Please leave your name and number, and if I don't call back... It's you."

Or:
"Yes, hello, this is -name-. *pause* Yes... *pause* Interesting... *pause* Anyway, this is my answering machine, leave a message after the beep."
This is particularly annoying if said convincingly, because people then will start talking, get those few replies, and then the message that they have been talking to an answering machine.

My friend's answering machine is funny, and makes you sorta angry.

It starts off with her saying "Hello?" Then nothing for like 6 seconds. Then it goes "that's really cool and all, but I'm sorta busy. see ya."

Lol.

That is kinda like the one I mentioned before.
I cannot figure out how it is that annoying, since people won't know you talked to an answering machine, but it is still embarrassing > >

Ha. My friend and I did that to each other once. We kept on resetting the voice message, to where it would sound as if we had answered, but half a minute later, it would say 'Sorry, can't get to the phone right now' or something. Right now, I have it set as, 'Hey, you've reached my answering machine. No matter what the automated voice says, hang up after the beep' because I hate having to check voicemail.

Yes, I can definitely see the advantage of pissing people off who I'm good enough friends with to actually give them my number and expect phone calls from them.

Mine is

"Hello this is *insert my name here* and Im probably not answering the phone because Im sick with the swine flu or im trying to . please leave a message after the beep. *pause for 3 seconds* Oh, by the way, if youve been anywhere near me for the past 4 days you probably have swine flu too, have fun!"

before I got swine flu it was

"I hate you. why wont you crawl in a hole and die? Ill see you in hell you dirty bastard. That is unless your my parents, girlfriend, sister, brother, (list of everyone else I know), or a potential job offer."

A little was edited out of the beginning...
