Telemarketers who don't try very hard

[ilai]

The phone rings.

Ian: Hello?
Caller: (loudly) 喂，王先生啊！ [Hello, Mr. Wang!]
Ian: (backs away from the receiver) ... hello?!
Caller: Do you speak Chinese?
Ian: (thinks for a minute) No.
Caller: *click*

Curses, Roommmate! You and your being profiled by Asian telemarketers! ;-)

Also, it annoys me when people assume that I understand mandarin.
