Buddy the elf, what's your favorite color?

A humorous and annoying way to answer a phone call. The phrase derives from the movie "Elf," and is often used to keep telemarketers from calling a person's house, although this is not the phrase's only use. A twist between a prank call and an answering machine, the phrase is popular on sites such as MyLifeIsAverage.com.
NOTE: "Buddy the elf" is said as the name of the receiver, not the caller.
*phone rings*
Receiver: Buddy the elf, what's your favorite color?
Telemarketer: Uh...
*Telemarketer hangs up and never calls the house again*

Alternate response:
*phone rings*
Receiver: Buddy the elf, what's your favorite color?
Receiver's friend/Caller: Black.
Receiver: Black isn't a color, it's a shade.
*argument about if black is a color*

The best way to answer the phone, from the Christmas movie Elf

buddiee

Someone who you trust with your whole life and any secrets that you may have. This person is really close and means a lot to you and you just have endless fun when you're with them. They'll be there when you need them the most and they wont ever ever go away; they know when you're happy or sad, even before you can say a word. A buddiee knows you better than anyone else does, even your best friends. Sometimes you'll have a small fight, but you'll make up in about 1 hour and become better and closer than ever. Fights are just a little obstacle that you just have to jump over.

Your buddiee is the greatest person you can ever have
Phone conversation:

Josh:byee
Nikita: b.... (phone hangs up)

Josh (calls back): omg did i just totally hang up on youu?
Nikita: yeees! :O
conversation goes on for another hour or more...
