Please help my failing memory.  There used to be a hilarious recording of a guy who had hooked up some equipment to his phone line and would reverse-spam telemarketers who called him with an automated system.  Key points — the fake person who answered the phone asked silly questions like:

“Think of your favorite color, ok?”

(wait for response)

“Is it blue?”

(wait for response)

“Is it red?”

Finally, it would get stuck in a loop saying “is it purple?” over and over again.  At least, that’s how I remember it, but based on the hits I got for all the terms I could think of, I’m either remembering it wrong, or the internet has forgotten this particular meme.  I’m betting on the former.
