The religious crazies are knocking on doors

I'm sitting here with my windows and doors wide open (but screens locked) and I will not answer. They're across the way at my neighbors...

Also: they wake my kids. I KEEEL them

Re: The religious crazies are knocking on doors

  • NO no no, you gotta answer but you just act completely nuts right back to them.

    Open the door, smile and nod and say "Oh no thank you, we've already been to Singapore and my cat choked on my foot.  Good night" and slam the door in their face

  • They just knocked on my screen door. I'm sitting on the couch in plain view of said door. I'm currently ignoring them...

  • They said through the screen "You know we can see you"

    to which I responded "No you can't I'm just and illusion"

  • They knocked on the vacant apartment for about 10 minutes before leaving.

    They walked to my neighbors after I announced I was an illusion.

    I'm glad you can see me. In MY house. I am under no obligation to answer the door just because you knocked. Take the hint and go away. 

    Agreed.

  • I think it's creepy because they don't really sell GS cookies door-to-door anymore. I don't think most people will let their daughters knock on strangers' doors. They get by with parents taking orders at work and the girls selling them at the grocery store.

  • I have my own supply line of GS cookies.

    My sisters are twin 7yr olds. Of course you know I have to buy double because if I buy from just one it isn't fair...

    You are clearly a good aunt. It's very selfless of you. 

    True story.

    I try to buy enough to last through the year. This year I missed the chance at work and had to ask DH to get them at the store, but he's more like the grasshopper than like the ant, so we have 1.5 boxes left and it's only JUNE.

    O.M.G.  RIP me, this is my ghost!

    Did the retort work?  I'm so going to use this in the future if it did! 

    the one sighed really loudly but when they noticed I wasn't getting up they left.

  • LOL at your response to them! I find door-to-door proselytizing the height of insulting. How dare you show up at my house to tell me my belief system is wrong because you read a book that said so?

  • One of my friends had Mormons at the door one day - and she ran to answer the door but fell down the stairs doing so.  Also, she was in a bra, a thong, and wearing a towel on her head. The stairs ended right at the door and she went head over heels down the stairs, landing lacy-black-thong-butt-out at them.

    They ran away before she could answer. 

    In other news, when the Jehovah's Witnesses come to my door, I explain that I am an English teacher and request a copy of the Watch tower.  Then I say "I'll go get my pen" and come back making corrections.  When I'm done, I had it to them and say "Have a nice day!"

  • Answer the door naked.  It scares the crap out of them.  They will drop their laundry detergent and run.

  • And that's why I hang around the house in undies. Because if they can see me through the glass in the front door, they usually walk away.

  • One of these days, I'm going to open an Etsy store and sell signs that read: "If you ring my doorbell and wake up my baby to sell me stupid shyt or religion, or really for anything short of the apocalypse, I will gut you like a fcuking fish. Girl Scout cookies are always welcome!" I'm thinking pink and black zebra print with rhinestones and feathers. Or an American flag.
