The Census came to call..........

 Flash of badge and:

Census: Hello, I'm from the Census calling to remind you to fill in your form.

Me: Ok.

Census: So I can put you down as a "will be doing so"?

Me: No.

Census: May I ask why not?

Me: Yes.

(pregnant pause)

Census: And your reason is?

Me: That you will discover, if and when you get me into Court.

Census: Oh, we had better leave it at that then.

Me: Goodbye.

The poor chap didn't really know how to handle it.......

He was probably shocked at the (relative) politeness of your reply...
