My wife and I can't come to the phone right now, but if you'll leave your name and number, we'll get back to you as soon as we're finished.

Prank Answering

When a good friend calls and you answer the phone like-
A) you speak a foreign language, or broken english, or
B) Like you've never heard the name of the person before.
Either way it makes the person suspect they have a wrong number, and it's funny as hell. Sort of like a prank call, just by the receiver.

Noon...
John dials the number....
RING
RING
Perry: hehehe
*answers*
Perry: Herro, this is panda moon!
John: umm... uh... I think I have a wrong number!
Perry: I'm just fucking around! I was prank answering you!

George Costanza Answering Machine 

A George Costanza Answering Machine is when you record a ridiculous greeting people hear when they call your answering machine. It comes from an episode of "Seinfeld" where George's greeting is himself singing a song off key to avoid talking to his girlfriend.

I HATE calling Paul when he isn't home. He has a George Costanza Answering Machine.
