Read today in the state tabloid (and it is a tabloid these days) that the Office of Fair Scamming Trading is going to allow door to door sales critters to knock on doors until 8pm. Why? Because businesses are whining that the Do Not Call register (which doesn’t work anyway, yes I’m looking at you, 02 8xxx xxxx spammers) is hampering their efforts to get in our face.

Hey Marketards. Listen. If we want to buy something, if we want to consider buying something, we’ll do our own research and make the call. Want to rule yourself out of that process, fine, send your door to door critters and start your badgering. Be sure to tell us your company name when the door is closing so we know not to conduct business with you.

Our home is sanctuary. It’s where we spend time relaxing, letting the world go on without us. I’m sure we’re not the only ones.

Don’t. Just, don’t.
