Never answer the door

Why is it that people still go door-to-door? I mean, do people resond to that anymore? Well apparently they do, because everyone knows my roomates name.

“Is Cory home?”

I get that alot when I answer the door. Jehovah’s Witnesses, Mormons… they all come to visit Cory. Now it’s not his fault, working nights, he’s usually home during the day so he’s the one stuck answering the door. Now it’s become a game for me when it’s my turn to greet our unwelcomed guests. I have to come up with a creative lie about Cory being gone, asleep, or sometimes deceased due to a tragically freak lumbering accident. I can only speculate that a one point in time… a long, long time ago… that door-to-door pitches were acceptable, even profitable, or else they won’t have lasted this long. But be it religion or vacumms, we don’t like our castle being invaded.
