Tis the season for... little scrotes calling to the door 'singing'

    Does anybody else have the great unwashed calling to their doors murdering christmas carols in the hope to get a few quid? When did this become a new venture for little scumbags?

    I must have had about 10 of the little scrotes calling to my door with their hands out looking for cash. It started in November and its getting worse now. I just tell them to piss off but it annoys me that this is the new angle and that I have to tell them to piss off at what should be a festive time.

    The same thing was happening last Halloween when teenagers were calling around 9pm - 10pm with a ****ty €1 mask expecting me to cough up money. I don't mind telling them where to go but my wife is a softie and she doesn't like being put on the spot like that.

    I am not talking about charities calling to the door looking to raise money, I have no issue with that or groups of carol singers, these are good for nothing knackers trying to get a quick quid.

    Do what I do, don't answer the door.

    Start a rumour that you're a sex offender. No problem with kids callign to your door after that!

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Open the door and if its scrotes or kids or chuggers, bang it shut again. I don't see the problem?

    You're breaking the rules just opening the door like that. You check the cctv, spyhole or front window, and pretend you're not home and/or are deaf.

    Actually, open the door and pretend you're deaf. It'll be gas.

    I won't answer the door where I live if I'm not expecting someone.

    Its either gonna be someone selling rosary beads, sky tv, airtricity, tv licence inspector, scientology pusher, local td, kids singing, kids looking to be sponsored for something...ENOUGH!!!

    I'm trying to watch Masterchef - **** off.

    The unwashed hate dogs, get a few big angry ones and a few little ankle biters just to cover all situations.

    Open the door while wearing a tinfoil hat and shout at them:

    "Who sent you here!?!"

    Do it while frequently flinching and looking up at the sky.

    If you upset the kids you might get a brick through the window and a disgruntled chugger is perpetually on the verge of going postal.

    Not answering the door is the way to go.

    Ask them do they want to see your basement?

    Normally I don't answer the door but I thought it was somebody else. The wife answers the door and then I have to deal with them.

    Us? I am not miserable, just don't like little scheming gits calling to my door.

    Ask them if they accept credit cards.

    Bucket of water out the top window

    A doorbell that sounds like a Rottweiler, which was not fed for decades, might come handy :D

    I hate that crap. The same group of kids knocked at our door 3 times last year. The first time I just closed the door again and ignored them, the second time I told them to get to be f**ked. However the 3rd time I had a load of ice cold water in the bucket and opened the window upstairs the door and poured it over them.
