I don't want anyone in my face selling me anything. God, glazing, Greenpeace or accident claims (couldn't think of a 'g'). Full stop.
I don't want them phoning me up, at any time.
I don't want them knocking on my door, at any time.
I want to live my life without unnecessary interference from anyone. If I want a product I am perfectly capable of approaching a seller in person, by phone or email. When the phone rings I want it to be someone I want to talk to (hallelujah for free caller display). If there's a knock at the door I want it to be a friend, neighbour or delivery person (praise the lord for spy holes in doors).
I'll give a polite 'no' to a big issue seller or a 'homeless' person sat there looking for loose change, other than that it's the thousand yard stare. The problem now is that, if you genuinely need help or directions, people do their best to avoid you assuming that you are one of these sales pests.

I heard about a dyslexic Vicar who sold his soul to Santa!
