Ok I sure everyone gets people knoking on their door trying to sell stuff or give you a piece of paper saying the wrold is going to end. How do you deal with them? I told the last guy that I had to time to talk because and angry mob of lamas where going to invade my house and I needed to prepare. He looked at me like I was crazy but he aint coming back.

There is signs made for that. There called No Solicitor signs. You should invest in one of those.

"Sorry, not interested." or "Sorry, don't have money." That's pretty much the usual.

Slamming the door. Works every time. Or a chainsaw, but that is heavily frowned upon x__x

I look them right in the face and say: "Look, you crazy mormons, I told you last time that one wife was good enough!"

Unless you're talking about the fundamentalists (eg crazier people), those Mormons learnt their lesson over a century ago.

Scream uncontrolablly at a real or ficticious person. Answer the door angrily and abruptly wearing an undershirt and holding a wooden bat.

Try to not let them see you through the door window. (If you have one.)

I rarely get people like that and have never got one about the world going to end.Most people here sell paintings and most of them are cheap and quite nice so I buy them.

annoying people on the phone are so much better, but usually have an extremely long conversation about nothing and then stop in mid-sentence and walk away

If it's someone selling something I tell them "I'm too young to make a decision like that." If it's someone annoying that I know personally, I'll tell them I can't go anywhere or the person they're wanting isn't at home at the moment.
