I lead them on. Then ask if their parents were proud of them for their career in attempting to scam the elderly.
if i didn't hate the phone ringing you might have almost given me a reason to answer when scammers call.
i don't want it ringing every 15 minutes. i don't have energy to explain... i don't know, the difference between schulmerichs and malmarks all day. i got chores to do. i would get too overexcited explaining it to them especially if they stayed on the line long enough for me to get to fucking whitechapels.
A drop of water falls in an endless, still lake. The ripple spreads out, leaving a circular wave spreading out endlessly. Tiny disturbances create their own ripples; one side travelling with the main ripple, causing wonderful interactions in the wavefront; but the main ripple grows faster than these disturbances spread across it.
The beings of the ripple look across the main ripple, seeing the disturbances as their interactions propagate across the main ripple. Looking back far enough to the earliest disturbances, one thing becomes clear; the entire ripple comes from one drop, and most of the ripple is moving away faster than a disturbance can propagate.
An expanding universe where every point of the universe started from the middle is pretty easy to conceptualize with the right analogy.
