When being caught off guard in a scenario by someone who wants something, quickly restoring control by making demands of your own. Usually leads to awkwardness and some confusion on the part of the person who started the conversation. The term is known to originate from Surrey where individuals who when answering the door to cold-callers, would reverse roles and persuade the cold-caller to buy something or make a donation etc.
Cold-caller: Hello there, i was wondering whether you would like to make a donation today to Save the World?
Individual: Hmm, that sounds very noble but I believe a more worthy cause to be ........... It was set up around 40 years ago and looks to .......... Would you be interested in setting up a standing order.

A fun game to play with your friends. The goal is to tap an unsuspecting person on the shoulder or pull on their bag. When they turn around, you say a generic cold call.
Person one: "hey bro. Watch this."
Person two: "Alright."
*Person two pulls on a bystanders bag*
Person three: "huh?"
Person one: "have you or a loved one been misdiagnosed with mesothelioma? If so, you may be entitled to financial compensation."
Person two: "classic. You just pulled a Real life cold call."
Person two: "Alright."
