Anybody recall when Jerry answered the phone and it was a telemarketer calling? He had a very zippy response, but it eludes me now. I'd love to know what he said.

❓ Question
Fans discuss Jerry's memorable comeback to a telemarketer where he turns the tables by asking for the caller's home phone number to call back later.

It was something along the lines of (working from memory) "I'm sorry, I'm too busy to take your call right now. Tell you what, why don't you give me your home phone number, and I'll call *you* back, tonight? What's that? You don't like taking calls like this at home? Well, how about that!" Then he hangs up on him.
I'm sure somebody will be along shortly, and give you the exact word- for-word transcript.

He said: "I'm sorry I'm a little busy right now, why don't you give me your home number and I'll call you back at home? Youre not aloud to do that? Well now you know how I feel" (click) --JLR
Well, now you know how *I* feel.
Very close, Doug. I'm tempted to use this one myself. Lately when they say, "May I speak to Miss Dudley?" I say, "No, you may not" and hang up!

i think jerry told the telemarketer that he didn't have time to talk now..he then asked him for his home phone number and said he'd call him to talk later. then the telemarketer said he can't do that and jerry said something like, "oh you don't like strangers calling you at home? now you know how i feel!" and hangs up.

He said something like this: Can I call U back at your home, obviously the person will not reveal his own home phone #. Then he says U know how I feel when U call me at my home!
