"Hello?"

"Hello, can I speak to Mr. or Mrs. Brewer?"

sigh "Yeah, that's me."

"Oh, hello Mr. Brewer. I'm calling from the Fred Astaire Dance Studio. I'm pleased to inform you that you've won a free dance lesson. When would you like to come down for it?"

"Well, actually, I'm already a pretty good dancer."

"Oh... ok"

"Bye"

Wow, that was the easiest rejection of a telemarketer ever. But the jokes on them, I actually really suck at dancing.
